Rich Pinol is a master of his craft. His expertise in family law helped me easily navigate the divorce process which was previously unknown to me. He was able to take complex matters such as family law and jurisprudence and explain it to me in simple terms. He is able to make his clients feel as if ...they are his only client. I would highly recommend Rich Pinol to anyone seeking legal counsel for their divorce.

I am very happy my family and I could put this experience behind us however I am thankful Rich and his impeccable knowledge of law was there for us every step of the way. We went in with a custody dispute started by the opposing party and walked out with very favorable results beyond anything we tho...ught was possible.

I wanted a lawyer whom somebody I knew could recommend to me, but it didn't work out. I was referred to Rich by a lawyer who I didn't know, so I went in "cold" as it were, and I feel I really "lucked out" with Rich. He was professional, understanding, and efficient (as was his support staff). It ...was my 1st (and I hope only) divorce, and you really don't know what to expect. Rich was excellent at separating the wheat from the chaff, (I'm talking about what I thought was important, and what Rich knew was important). Every little thing I thought was important turned out pretty much not to be, and he saved me money by just sticking to the crucial areas. We had to be patient to get to the finish line with what I wanted, and Rich was the "man". I only realize this now that it is over. He had the right tact and experience to get us there. Like I said, I feel fortunate that I ended up with Rich, and in the end (and even during), I felt "that is why you hire a professional". I can truly say I was fortunate to end up in Rich Pinol's hands for what it is truly a negative experience (i.e. DIVORCE).

Rich is a phenomenal lawyer. I knew I wanted to hire Rich at our first meeting when he didn’t sugar coat my situation. He is a no nonsense lawyer and he calls it how it is. From the beginning of my case Rich was able to breakdown the opposing counsels case and I often knew what was coming my way. In ...the courtroom he was confident and well prepared. So well prepared that I felt he knew more about my case than I did. He knew what to argue and how to argue it too. Rich is also a passionate man and seems to thoroughly enjoy what he does. He truly cares not only about your case but about you as a person calling me on multiple occasions just to check in and see how things were going. He was more than willing to work with my financial situation and I highly recommend you hire Rich. Not only is Rich great but the people in his office are as well they are friendly, easy to get a hold of, and quick to respond. My case turned out better than I expected and as a young father I couldn’t be more thankful for all the hard work Rich and everyone else put into my case.

Rich was an amazing advocate for me during a very contentious guardianship case. The knowledge, attention to detail and tireless work that Rich put into my case was impressive. There were numerous documents and other pieces of evidence that Rich reviewed with me to build the best case. He spent long ...afternoons and even weekends going over this evidence and preparing for the various hearings that were happening in a short time frame. Rich was able to get an expedited trial set for me at the onset of the case which was fantastic but it also increased his workload, he took on this added pressure without hesitation. Rich and his team were compassionate in recognizing how sensitive and emotionally charged my case was. They were also very honest in what they relayed to me and the possible outcomes that could happen. My daughters and I were important to Rich and his team and the many hours that they put into my case resulted in the positive outcome.
