Ryan Michael Borges

Ryan and his team did an outstanding job of handling the intricacies of my case. He was very thorough in gathering the details needed for the case and empathetic towards my concerns and desires. I had worked with a couple of different attorneys in the past and none can be compared to the profession...alism I received from Ryan. Throughout the entire process, he was patient and explained things in laymen terms so that I could understand without having to learn a bunch of legal jargon. Ryan handled my case with superior knowledge of the details as if he had experienced the events himself. I was impressed with the way he was able to recount details with ease and aggressively defend me at the same time. I was really nervous since I resided out of state but I feel extremely blessed to have found Ryan! I promise you will not be disappointed. Finding a good attorney should not be stressful since the reason you need one is probably already stressful enough. With his experience and background, I would go as far to say Ryan is the best in the state. I hope I don't need to but I would hire him again in a heartbeat if I did.

I was referred to Ryan Borges by my cousin. I had consulted with two other lawyers and was unable to find the right fit until I met with Mr. Borges. He quickly took my case and worked with my ex-wife's lawyer to de-escalate our divorce proceedings from a "she takes all" to a "give and take" situation.... In the end, Mr. Borges facilitated a divorce that ended much more positive than it began. He was financially understanding and worked to stay within my extremely limited budget. I would recommend Mr. Borges to any person who is contemplating divorce.

I hired Ryan back in December to conduct discovery and finish out the rest of my divorce. E-mails would take several days to get a response, if they even got one at all, and he refused to submit formal discovery requests until 6 months of pestering him to do so. He only made a few informal requests w...hich cannot be compelled and essentially are meaningless and caused a huge setback. The unwillingness to conduct discovery also damaged my case by causing the arguments to be disposed from waiting so long, so some of the discovery I was seeking can no longer be sought. In the six months that I had him as counsel, he accomplished very little of anything at all. In particular, I needed him to get a written temporary order signed (the temporary order was already agreed on, it only needed to be drafted at that point) by the court and while he did get an order in, the language is incorrect and was not signed by the judge, so no enforceable order exists in my case now 7 months after I had retained him. In addition, he would repeatedly pressure me to agree to a settlement when discovery had not been completed and became very frustrated when I refused to. The breaking point was when he wanted another $2,500 deposit to finish out the divorce (at that point discovery STILL wasn't even started), even though he had taken my case on a flat rate with full knowledge that I had intended to take it to trial when we agreed on a fee. I was willing to renegotiate our fee, but not another $2,500 considering little had actually been done. I ended up going back to my previous attorneys since their flat rate was the same price. Really, I should have stuck with them in the first place and saved myself the $2,500 I paid Ryan, since they would have handled everything up to this point and moving forward. I can't recommend Ryan at all for family law cases and recommend that you to consider other options.

I came to Ryan when I was beginning to search for a new job. I had been charged with a misdemeanor drug paraphernalia charge while I was in college and I didn't want it to be an issue anymore. Ryan was able to get to get my verdict set aside in a quick and timely manner. He kept me up to date with my... case at all times and was quick to contact me if anymore forms needed to be signed. Ryan's prices were more than fare and I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a lawyer.
