I was facing some pretty unique and very difficult circumstances when I presented Richard with my DUI case with out-of-state priors. Not only did Richard take the time to research out-of-state laws, he got in contact with my former cases, reviewed all evidence, and was very specific with everything h...e did. He made the process as painless as it could be, got my priors removed from evidence, and was able to settle my case with the best possible outcome I had hoped for. He kept me updated along the way, was in constant contact, was friendly and understanding, as well as making sure I understood what was going to happen to me. Though I hope I never have to go through anything like this again, if I did, I would not hesitate to call Richard Duquette, he knows his stuff and is passionate about what he does.

I was a cyclist involved in a collision with a vehicle. I am incredibly glad that I knew about Mr. Duquette before this incident occured as I am fairly unaware of the nuances of traffic law in CA. Mr. Duquette explicitly told me how to handle my case step-by-step: most importantly, he advised me o...n what to do/what not to do with the insurance company. He did a "mock interaction" with the insurance company, where he roleplayed both sides and advised me on how to handle specific questions as well as what questions to ask. In addition, he brought to my attention a set of specific ordinances he recommended I consult so that I could determine exactly which laws were transgressed by the motorist. Passionate, professional, highly recommend.

I would highly recommend Mr Duquette to anyone who is facing the dreaded DUI charge. He not only helped me to win my DMV hearing, and keep my license, but went the extra mile and guided me thru multiple taxi licensing hearings, resulting in allowing me to continue driving for a living. My case was ...reduced to a wet reckless, with substantially lower probation, and court fees. Mr Duquette attacked my case from every angle, and was always available with any questions I had. He's like a sweet pit bull, and worth every penny!

Mr. Duquette was an excellent lawyer for our personal injury case. He was very thorough and persistent to pursue many different avenues to resolve our case in a positive way. Mr. Duquette took time to check out all possible medical procedures to insure a just settlement. Mr. Duquette was an impres...sive negotiator and was excellent at communicating with me the client. He gave me a great deal of confidence in his ability to bring the case to the best possible outcome. I have no hesitation in recommending Mr. Duquette to anyone who needs an excellent attorney.

In 2013 while bicycle commuting I was involved in a bicycle vs. motor vehicle accident in which I suffered injuries. Mr. Duquette was recommended to me---in large part due to his experience representing clients like me---and after an initial introductory meeting, took my case. Although the process ...was drawn out, time-consuming, and (from my perspective) frustrating, with Mr. Duquette’s demeanor, advice and help I was able to reach a favorable settlement. It was clear throughout the process that Mr. Duquette does have extensive experience in bicycling-related cases and was able to leverage this and his knowledge of sports medicine and insurance issues to support my case. He and his staff are very accessible, responsive, and thorough, and his professionalism and resourcefulness was clear throughout. I hope never to be put in a position like this again, but if so, I would not hesitate to seek out Mr. Duquette to represent me.
