Experienced and respected attorney!

Mr, Beshwate offered me a free consultation and I retained him to help with me with a serious criminal case. He was informative and answered all my questions. In court, Mr. Beshwate is confident and well respected by the judges, court staff, district attorneys and other attorneys. I have refe...rred several people to Mr. Beshwate's office. They have been satisfied with him as well. If I were to need an attorney again, I would call Mr. Beshwate.

"I have known Rick since 1998, when he had left the DA’s Office and entered private practice. Between 2004 and 2006 Rick gained 20 years worth of experience in the sensational “Pato’s Place” murder case and trial. Rick was one of the lawyers representing Mr. Timothy Young. They pulled out all the stops representing Mr. Young, but clearly believed law enforcement was doing everything possible to “stack the deck” against the two defendants. He came away from the case with a greater determination to fight for his clients’ rights, and the experience a lawyer needs to get great results. In the years since the Young trial concluded, Rick has done just that – effectively representing and obtaining great results for his many clients. I highly recommend Richard Beshwate."

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.
