Explained everything that would happen in court thoroughly and everything went smoothly. Richard, your an awesome attorney! keep up the good work. Sincerely, very satisfied clients.
"I represented one of richard's clients in a criminal matter that was the basis for the family court proceedings. I finally got to see him in action this morning battling it out in court. he was sincere, tenacious and persuasive. he is doing a great job for our mutual client."
"I endorse this lawyer. Richard is professional and extremely knowledgeable about the law. I have had numerous cases with him as the opposing counsel and have always found him to be an excellent advocate for his client while still being courteous and forthright. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Richard to anyone going through a complex dissolution of marriage."
"I endorse this lawyer. Richard is smart, tenacious and effective and highly experienced and skilled in all family law areas. Plus he has a wicked sense of humor."
"I endorse this lawyer. I once worked in the same firm as Richard Schneer and observed firsthand his dedication and loyal advocacy to his clients. Since then, I have referred several clients to him, including a case he took over after I had to step out. Richard is relentless in working towards his clients' best interests, and would be an excellent choice for many clients seeking legal representation."
"I have just reviewed a lengthy, comprehensive, accurate answer of Mr. Schneer on Avvo that was customized to the needs of the Avvo asker. These combination of qualities are exactly what every client would be looking for in hiring an attorney. Welcom to Avvo."
"I endorse this lawyer. Richard is smart, empathetic, creative and assertive. He was a formidable opposing counsel and works tirelessly for his clients. He does not churn fees; he is professional."
