My goal is to bring you the best service possible. I will work with you to assess your situation and give you options so that you can make an informed choice on how you want to best move forward. While no lawyer can ever guarantee a result, I am able to resolve most issues without trial, and many with a phone call or letter. Those times I have gone to trial, I have usually prevailed. I have achieved favorable results in fields including but not limited to family law, including divorce, parenting and custody, criminal law, consumer law and credit repair.

Landlord Tenant Issues

Threatening retailer
A retailer was threatening and very insistent that I pay thousands of dollars for 2 chairs that turned out not to work for me. Paul quickly and easily resolved the issue saving me thousands. I was very pleased and impressed. Moreover, he was a very pleasant person with whom to work.

I hired him, he "represented" me for nearly 2 years, I feel as though I'm a good judge of character and hiring Paul Richmond was the biggest lapse of judgement and worst decisions I've m...
Hi Joseph, I do not discuss specifics of any case in public forums because of client confidentiality. If you have any issues I would very much appreciate the opportunity to discuss this with you directly and make it right - it has been some time since we communicated and I do not have your current contact information
