Money PAID= NO resolution

AWFUL representation, if it can even be called that. The only constant communication I get are my bills each month which are over exaggerated and in most cases false? The attorney gave me false info at the start of the divorce and has yet to produce any true outcomes. The office staff lost paperwork ...4 times/asked me to resend/ I did and then was BILLED for their mistake and forced to pay before attorney would move forward with the case. Even basic 1 line emails are charged the standard rate of 30.00 just to look at the email? There is no give only take and this attorney is clearly only in it for the money. I agree I would never recommend. as a matter of fact the experience has been so horrible I am currently shopping for a different attorney to replace him ASAP! as the case has been going on for 2 yrs and should have been well resolved by now.

Results and Resolution

The Attorneys’ and Support staff in the Riverside, CA office worked well with all clients. Even if the attorney is at court the support staff is able to assist and answer questions and/or concerns so no phone call is a waste of time. My divorce case was represented and resolved with exceptional resul...ts, my attorney represented me on every level and was able to secure all requested items from listed on the judgment. The opposing counsel made everyone wait 2.5 hours and my attorney stayed with me the entire time, discussed strategy, possible changes and end results by the time everyone was ready to go into MSC I was able to let me attorney handle the case and discussions with confidence. I appreciate the time and effort of this law firm!

Divorce Final- Freedom Papers in Hand

I chose Richard Isles after meeting him in person at his office. I can confidently say my case was finalized without any problems or delay. Was quoted the average retainer fee for divorce and custody. Each issue that was important to my future (custody and support payments) was handled and resolved a...gaint the ex's lawyer smoothly and without delay. I actually came out of this with more than I hoped for. Am not normally the type to throw in the towel but when you just want out of a marraige from hell you want it overwith yesterday! If anything, I gained more than I went into the divorce expecting. This lawyer was actually looking out for MY best interests. My divorce goals were met (wanted my divorce over in six months, 50/50 custody, 70 inch t.v, my car, Boat, and quick resolution) with freedom papers in hand. They delivered. Made the process less painful then I expected, especially going into this with a materialistic money-hungry ex who threatened to never let me see my kids. I actually feel like I won, if there is such a thing in divorce. From the first interview, It was clear the lawyer knew his law. He spoke on my level, without legal jargon, practical advice was given as well, to avoid the Ex from causing any sh-- that could ruin my career. I know my choice was right in hiring this firm. I read the reviews here prior to hiring, did my research, and they delivered. End result- divorced, shared custody, and not financially drained. Works for me!

Family law review

Mr. Isles office was very receptive and empathetic to my situation during my initial call for advice. After meeting with Mr. Isles for the first time I was confident that I had made the right decision. Most offices have multiple attorneys that represent the firm but Mr. isles agreed to represent me h...imself without hesitation. Mr. Isles was both punctual and professional in addition to being considerate and responsive with all of my requests. I would highly recommend Mr. Isles to any potential client in need of a family law attorney.
