A Winner
Rich has represented our firm for 20 years in a variety of construction, insurance and development situations, mostly litigation. Rich is certainly a pleasure to work with. However, we rely on Rich and his fellow attorneys because he consistently delivers on our expectations. In perhaps a dozen lawsuits (some of which threatened the survival of this firm, now a $50,000,000 annual revenue company), Rich has achieved the outcomes we had been hoping for - and more.
