Professional, Knowledgeable, and Thorough

Rich and his team were excellent to work with. Rich is very knowledgeable about family law and did everything he could to advocate for me and my children to get the outcome we were happy with. Even though it was a small custody modification suit we were fighting, Rich took it seriously and I felt he ...genuinely cared about my case and did a great job representing us. His team was all very well organized and thorough, kept track of deadlines and didn’t let anything slip through the cracks. Rich was always available to answer any questions and his whole team was prompt to respond to emails. I highly recommend this team.

Top Notch!! Best in Boise!!!

Rich is the best attorney i have ever worked with, and I have worked with him on several matters now he is not like your normal attorney he doesn't treat you just like another client, he genuinely cares about his clients I look at Rich not only as my attorney but as a friend he is extremely professio...nal very well versed in family law and always shows up prepared and ready for court we hired him a second time to do a termination/adoption after having a bad experience previously with another attorney I was very distraught but Rich always shows up and Saves the Day!!! He communicated with me through the entire process sending me emails on a weekly basis explaining all of the steps and process of what was happening he always kept me in the loop and up to date. The Day of court he showed up early and was prepared with all of the correct documents and everything went smoothly and it was the best day of Our Lives! I would highly recommend Rich to anyone who is looking for a family law attorney he is professional intelligent hardworking and extremely personable I will never be able to thank him enough for all of his hard work and Devotion to our case. Thank you so much for all you have done for our family we are forever grateful!

Compassionate and tenacious

Rich was not the attorney I intended to have represent me in my divorce; however, I could not be happier with the great care he took over my case. The attorney I retained (at the same firm) was healing from a surgery and was wrapped up in court, in the most complex custody case they had ever seen. I ...was not dismayed in the slightest as Rich took over the reigns and quickly gained my confidence. While a relatively young attorney, he lacked none of the skills necessary to fight for my rights as I saw them and provide sound advice. He was compassionate, eager, punctual, and aggressive (but not overly). Even though I was the respondent in a divorce, I often felt we had the upper hand. Rich always made time for me even for the little things. He never minimized my questions or concerns but provided reassurance when I needed it. He always matched my level of attention and care for a situation. I was blessed to be referred by a friend to Marcus, Hardee, Davies, and Piñol. The best ending I could’ve asked for. Thank you again Rich!!

  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
