Great Employee Decision

Richard helped me with my job claim over the past three years. Great guy and overall explained to me the details about my case. Great result and not too expensive. I used other lawyers in the past but Richard is the best. I'll recommend him to my other co-workers.

Highly Competent, Ethical and Experienced

My wife and I have contracted with Richard L. Klauer several times over the last 15 years which have included better than expected settlements involving three separate auto accidents, advice on wills, and matters of power of attorney involving both national and international business. Richard has alw...ays been promptly available, completely approachable and appropriately confidential.
