Radford James Smith

Radford Smith and his partner Garima Jain are wonderful, genuinely caring people, and they provided unmatched legal counsel on my behalf as the plaintiff in my divorce. I had the additional complication and distraction of a life-threatening illness which requires a significant amount of daily care. R...adford and Garima were extremely accommodating and made sure that opposing counsel was respectful of my medical challenges. Radford and Garima were deliberate in dealing with opposing counsel, without being provocative, and used their well tuned legal expertise to bring about a settlement, avoiding the expense of trial preparation and a trial. I can think of many opportunities where Radford and Garima could have taken a path that would have increased their billable hours, but instead, the path they chose prioritized what was best for me to achieve a swift and fair outcome. I estimate my costs would have been double what they were if we would have had to go to trial instead of a pre-trial settlement. I think that it’s typical for both parties to feel like a divorce settlement is unfair, but I felt like I got a more fair settlement than my ex. A decision to retain Smith Jain Stutzman is the first step to your freedom and an opportunity to get a fresh start to your life.

I hired Mr. Smith for a custody matter. His knowledge of Nevada law is impressive. He is eloquent and persuasive in court. Polite and respectful; yet strong and unyielding in his position. I felt protected in the courtroom because his ability to understand the intricacies of the law and to persuade w...as truly inspiring. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an attorney who specializes in family law. I couldn’t be happier with my decision.

I hired Radford at the recommendation of my original divorce attorney who was very knowledgeable and responsive but who lost my case in court, even though the law was clearly on my side. That alone is indicative of Radford's reputation, and of how well-respected he is among his peers. He is extreme...ly knowledgeable, and I am sure he very quickly and efficiently handles non-contentious cases, but he is without doubt the one you need when you need to call in "the big guns." Radford won my case on appeal, before a completely unsympathetic judge who reluctantly ruled in my favor after Redford strongly reminded him of the law he was about to rule in conflict with. I am certain that most other attorneys would not have been able to save my case as he did. Without hesitation, and based on my personal experience, I strongly recommend Radford Smith.

Radford handled my divorce. He is very knowledgeable of the law and has the skill to win any logical argument. Absolute professional and above board. Never stooped to the level of the slime lawyers we were facing. Always held the high road. Rad is a very busy lawyer with a high case load. Somet...imes it was difficult to contact him and communicate on time critical matters. Rad is also extremely expensive and will quickly run up a high bill so be ready to write the checks. Highly recommend if you have a extremely difficult divorce case that needs a real expert in the law.
