Rude

He had a terrible attitude and gave terrible advice to help me in my divorce. I do not recommend him.

Highly Recpmmended

During one of the most stressful times in our lives, my husband and I would highly recommend Richard. He handled our step-parent adoption case. He was extremely professional and was always available for any questions we had. We are both very pleased with the outcomes of the case.
