Throughout a lengthy custody battle, Mr. Pinol never let up in fighting for my parental rights. Due to my repeated inability to follow the parameters of temporary custody orders, I wouldn't be surprised if my case were one of the most frustrating for Mr. Pinol to navigate. However, he never spoke dow...n to me and always told me what I needed to hear, and I never got the feeling that he regretted taking my case. From the outset, I could tell that Mr. Pinol was a fierce competitor in his realm, and he was not afraid to litigate if circumstances warranted it. After the close of my custody case, which had an extremely favorable outcome for me and my son, I still struggled to take advantage of it due to personal issues. However, when the mother of my son continued to defy the custody court order, Mr. Pinol didn't hesitate to take on a new case for petitioning the court. He didn't do it because he needed the business or was looking forward to me being his client again; I think it was because he believes that I love my son, and he saw me trying.

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.

We had the pleasure to have Rich Pinol represent us in court today. If you are looking for a great attorney, we would highly recommend him. He came in and was great with arguments and was very knowledgeable. He even caught an important detail that was overlooked in the other parties declaration. Agai...n, excellent attorney!
