Absolutely Recommend!!

I would like to say that the Law Offices of Richard Isles has been a tremendous help during this difficult time. They provided guidance through my entire divorce process. I was always able to get a hold of someone in the office whenever I had questions or concerns. They were patient and kind which wa...s a relief. After 29 yrs of marriage this experience was nothing that I was prepared to deal with at the age of 70 but they got me through it. I would recommend their caring staff to anyone that would have to face this in their life. Thank you all again for everything that you have done for me.

Grateful and Appreciative

After 15 years of marriage the last thing I ever thought I would be doing was looking for a divorce attorney. After visiting 6 attorneys and being told that everything that my husband was doing was horribly wrong but that they would not represent me because he is in the military, because I didn't ma...ke enough or because they just didn't want to deal with my case... I finally found Richard Isles. When I met with him he was compassionate and respectful and informed me of what my options were and how he could help me. It took me 2 years to finally decide to file for the divorce but when I was ready I went back to Mr. Isles and he not only remembered me but he also remembered my story. He and his staff have shown such professionalism in requesting information and preparing my case for filing. We have completed the Request for Orders, which not only went very smoothly but also in my favor and are now preparing for the final judgment in my case, which of course I have had questions about. The quick response to calls or emails and follow through surely have helped in setting my mind at ease. I am truly grateful for having found Richard Isles and that he accepted my case. I could not be more pleased with the expertise, confidence and compassion of Mr. Isles and his staff.

Great divorce attorney; knows what they're doing!

Very aggressive and knowledgeable. Every single court appearance and hearing was decided in my favor. Office staff was always very helpful and responsive to any issues that I brought up. I would highly recommend this lawyer to anyone!

Outstanding Attorney & a Decent Person

After I filed for divorce, I was falsely accused of the heinous crime of domestic violence, an unfortunate ploy seen more and more today in divorce cases as an attempt to gain the upper hand in child custody, visitation (or lack thereof) and other aspects that relate to divorces. After firing two ot...her attorneys for being unresponsive, treating me with a total lack of respect and doing nothing more than taking my money, I found Mr. Isles. First & foremost, Mr. Isles listened. He and his staff were amazingly kind, polite, professional, responsive and did an excellent job of keeping me informed in a timely fashion. They also treated me like a human being, instead of passing judgement based on the horrific false accusations leveled against me. Mr. Isles was also void of an ego so commonly found in some in the legal profession. He eagerly allowed me to be an active participant in my own defense. I valued, listened and gave great weight to his legal opinions, but he always made it clear how to proceed was up to me. Mr. Isles was also very patient, compassionate and sensitive to the stress a situation such as this puts on his client(s). On a number of occasions I sent Mr. Isles an email on a Friday evening, but I would always hear back from him over the weekend. In my experience, to find an attorney who will take the time to respond during his/her off time is highly uncommon and much to his credit. The end result was the Domestic Violence Temporary Restraining Order against me and the request for a Permanent Restraining Order was vacated and denied by the Court. In closing, I highly recommend Mr. Isles without qualification to anyone seeking competent legal representation in any Family Law matter. He is knowledgeable, ethical and will jealously defend the rights of his client(s).

Very Grateful

I am a young mother of a 2 year old, a student and I work as well, so the best thing for me was to hire an attorney to get the "whole process" of my divorce a bit easier and painless. It was hard to come to the conclusion that I needed to hire an Attorney's because I don't have much money, but let me... be sincere, No Attorney is Affordable, but Mr. Isles is worth my every penny. Ms. Steven's, one of his associates is great; every time I had concerns or questions she took time from her schedule to help. Mr. Isles, in my court hearings was/is VERY PROFESSIONAL he keeps me relaxed, because I am always stressing and scared in my court appearances. I couldn’t of asked for a better Attorney than Mr. Isles and Ms. Stevens. I really appreciate what they have done, as well as their staff they are great. I have not complains.
