About Richard
Biography
I have been an AV rated trial lawyer for over 20 years. I was a prosecutor, worked for the largest law firm in the State of Arizona, and have been a name partner in a small law firm. I have tried over 40 cases as lead counsel in state and federal courts in Arizona and Colorado. I have appeared numerous times before the Arizona courts of Appeal, Supreme Court and the Ninth Circuit.
I am a solo practitioner and represent clients who have been wronged---criminally accused, hurt and injured and those defrauded. I am a trial lawyer.
I only represent folks who have been hurt, damaged or falsely accused-- "Lawyer for the Underdog!"
There are many defenses--do NOT go to court without a lawyer! Former prosecutor, I know what works.
Know your rights! Let me deal with adverse party, insurance company to maximize your recovery.

Business Dispute
I had a business dispute with a landlord from a restaurant I had. I originally had retained another attorney who completely botched the case up, badly enough to where he eventually was disbarred (another story). Richard was recommended to me and after our first consult, I was convinced I would at lea...

30 Year Client
I needed an attorney 30 years ago as I was accused of domestic violence and arrested. Richard came to meet with me and extract me immediately.

Intelligent, Kind, Highly Competent
Mr. Strohm was my attorney for case many years ago, and his legal advocacy was the reason for our prevailing in our case. He is unfailingly responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend him for my friends or family.

Humanitarian
Richard helped me with my auto accident. I was rear ended by a young girl who had minimum insurance. He helped me get a settlement. He was very familiar with working with insurance companies and knew exactly what to do. I would highly recommend him as he is kind and super smart!
Richard L Strohm's Lawyer Endorsements
"Rick is a tremendous lawyer and mentor. Very few lawyers will ever match up to Rick's professionalism, expertise, and desire to seek justice for a client. I highly recommend and endorse Rick."
"I have known Rick for almost 30 years and during that time have had many opportunities to evaluate his expertise and professionalism. Without fail, his performance has been superb and he is held in very high regard by his peers. Even more importantly, he always acts in a courteous manner and takes very seriously his ethical obligations as well. It is a privilege to be given this honor to endorse one of the most highly respected lawyers in Arizona."
"Rick has been gracious enough to assist me with cases in my relatively young legal career. His mentoring, experience, and litigation skills have shown me what a great lawyering looks like. He is intuitive, efficient, and confident. Most importantly he is at ease interacting with clients, so much so that I am always happy to refer my own friends and family to him for their legal needs."
"I heartily endorse this lawyer. I have known Rick for almost 20 years and have worked with him on several litigation matters. He is smart, conscientious and extremely effective in the courtroom. His written work is exceptional. He has an excellent reputation in the legal community, especially among the judiciary, which is well deserved. He should be awarded Avvo's highest rating."
"I have had the pleasure to work with Rick for more than five years. He is a dedicated, smart lawyer who is committed to the best results for his clients. What separates Rick from many litigators is his extensive trial experience. He shines in the courtroom and has an affable yet focused demeanor that resonates with both judge and jury. Rick has extensive experience in both criminal and commercial litigation, which means he can assist clients with a range of issues, including commercial litigation, personal injury, criminal defense, and most other disputes."
