Child custody case - amazing.

Richard Pinol and his team did an amazing job! They went above and beyond for me. I live out of state and I had a challenging case from the start. Richard and his team (Devory and Asha) assured me that everything was going to be okay. They got the job done in a very timely manner and we were able to ...settle before going to trial which saved me thousands of dollars. That is something I thought would never happen because the mom was fighting for full custody and was completely unwilling to work with me. She was fighting me every step of the way but Richard was confident, calm, smart and could also be a little aggressive in the court room IF he needed to be to get his point across. I was very impressed. I would not want to put my trust in anybody other than Richard Pinol. He is worth every dime. Thanks again!

Excellent Attorney

Originally I had hired Dan Hardee to be my attorney but Rich Pinol handled the case for me mainly and by the end I had high confidence in Rich to handle the case all the way through. He was professional and helped me understand the process as it proceeded and was usually available via email and phon...e when needed for things that were urgent. I would recommend him to anyone looking for a good custody attorney! His staff was also amazing and they each handled the case with care and in a timely manner. A special thanks to this whole team of attorneys, paralegal's, and staff for everything you did!

Amazing Attorney!

We hired Mr. Pinol to help us with custody of our daughter. He is great because he cuts to the chase, no bs and battled for us to maintain what we have. We never ended up in court, and I would have had no worries with him if we did. Highly recommend!

BEST LAWYER IN TOWN!!!!

Rich is hands down one of the best out there. I have had the privileged of hiring him for 2 complicated and extensive custody battles. We had an amazing and positive outcome with both cases. I couldn't have asked for a better lawyer to help me make sure everything went accordingly in the best interes...t for my children. Those are very stressful and challenging times in an individuals life and its important that you have a lawyer that cares and goes above and beyond for you. That would be Rich! He is very dedicated and fights some tough battles. Thanks again for all your help!
