Amazingly knowdlegeable, caring and ethical attorney in Riverside!

I was fortunate enough to be referred to Rick by a well-known colleague of his to help me with a serious family legal issue that was filed in Ventura County. Rick was generous with his time and provided me with a thoughtful and helpful assessment of the situation and my options (for free). He is a d...istinguished litigator and he is professional and caring about his clients. Rick was the only attorney I reached out to that was focused on helping without any mention of fees and I ended up working with him because of how caring, responsive and knowledgeable of the subject matter and court system he is (even though he is in Riverside he provided very good advice about the court system and DA in Ventura County). I hope I never have any more legal issues but if I did I would not hesitate to work with him or refer friends and family to him!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
