Great Assistance through Challenging Times
Mr. Rudolph is one of the greatest assets you could have.
He knows exactly how to handle difficult situations that need a little 'special' attention.

Living Trust
Mr. Rudolph created a living trust for my wife and I after we were married several years back. The trust provides for estate management, health care directives, and other financial account management. The trust is still current with no needed changes. I highly recommend Rich for trusts or other legal matters you may face.

Very helpful!
Mr Rudolph provided an excellent consultation to me. He is knowledgeable and also compassionate and understanding of the effects enployment issues can have on a person. He was able to clarify the tangible and relative issues as applied to laws, verses the lamen's view of fair and/or wrong doing.
It is unclear at this time if I will need to retain Mr Rudolph, but if I need a Labor Attorney I would use him.

LBZ Entertainments ACE attorney> Agressive, Honest, Fair and an eye for Detail that gets Results. Almost to good to be true? .
LBZ Entertainment and myself personally have had the pleasure of being represented & working with Mr. Rudolph in several substancial matters, all of which have met with favorable results. A personable, yet extremely thorough and proffessional Attorney. Mr. Rudolph has a knack for details that far exceeds so many attorneys we have retained in prior years. In short, details and sound strategies win cases. Mr. Rudolph does not disapoint. Having been in business for some 25 years, I've seen my share of " Take the retainer & go golfing lawyers" The "Oh,... that case guy" too many to count. You know the one... Mr. Rudolph is the refreshing exception. I assure you, you will be pleased by the manner in which Mr. Rudolph treats you as a client and at how he handles your case. His billing is fair and you get what you pay for. He is partnered with a paralegal / legal assistant that is unparraleled. Her knowledge of the law and the apellant process is outstanding and she compliments Mr. Rudolph perfectly. I have never had a love for, or even like for attoneys, lets face it, in most cases, there's just not much to like. In this case however, by way of the illimination process and a lot of money spent, I have found an attorney that messures up and has proven his worth by way of successful endings. Searching for an attorney is nothing short of scary, picking the wrong attorney is far worse. Do yourself a favor and take advantage of my headaches and countless dollars wasted,and give Mr. Rudolph a call and set up a meeting. Whether you need to set up a trust, do a will, draft agreements or file suite, Mr. Rudolph is money well spent.
I can only speak for myself and LBZ Entertainment, hiring Mr. Rudolph for all personal and corporate matters including; entertainment, licensing, agreements, trusts and litigation has been a successful and pleasant experience. You owe it to youself to give him a call, I sincerly believe you will be pleased with your treatment, billed fairly and most importantly, achieve your desired result.
