"Rick is a respected leader and contributor in the Sacramento family law community. I have served as an opposing counsel on several matters with Rick, and while our clients may be at odds, Rick is an effective advocate for his clients.

"Rick is one of the most respected attorneys in family law here in Sacramento. His character and professionalism are impeccable. I do not hesitate to recommend him."

If I needed an attorney, I would hire him. I recommend him with no reservation. It would be the best investment of your life to hire him to represent you."
"I have worked with Rick on several matters. He is thoughtful and conscientious and an excellent attorney. I wholeheartedly endorse him."
