Click to report rating    1/3/21   5     1     1     1     1   Mr Buck over charges and drags out the litigation so he racks up billable hours of information that is irrelevant to solving the issues of the case. He doesn’t have the best interest of his client at heart. He seems to be motivated by one thing ...the amount of money he can take from you. I’m not a troll or someone who is bitter. I’m going back to 2007 when this happened. I really hope I can help someone not be ripped off by this man with no morals. RID: 226172
Click to report rating    11/14/19   1     1     1     1     1   Avoid Monica, the senior clerk, she says one thing to you, then does the exact opposite. She enjoys playing games with your life and children, and wasting your money. RID: 216206
Click to report rating    2/4/19   5     5     5     5     5   We could not have asked for a better team to represent us in a case involving a tenacious, uncooperative and unreasonable respondent. In addition to being extremely knowledgeable of family law, particularly the child custody aspects, Richard along with his senior law clerk Monica and his law clerk Debbie were nothing but professional responsible, accessible, persistent, hard-working and supportive. Their billings were extremely fair and reasonable. We can’t thank Richard and his team enough and recommend them without reservation. RID: 208097
Click to report rating    8/7/18   5     1     1     1     1   Mr. Richard Buck knows the law very well. Which is why he is excellent at dragging out, and prolonging cases that don't need to be. He is looking for billable hours and has no interest in actually doing what's best for his clients. He lacks a moral code and is the epitome of why the general population have a bad taste for lawyers. If you're looking to spend countless dollars in a useless attempt to bully and threaten, he is the man for you. His tactless attempts don't work if you're up against a well versed lawyer. Just know what you're walking into if you're thinking of using him (or if you're up against him)...you will spend thousands of unnecessary dollars, and will end up with a less desirable outcome then you started off with. Good luck with Buck! RID: 202363

He is that rare breed of lawyer that works ethically and with integrity, with very competent energy and a wonderful sense of being a friend and supporter when it is most needed. Thank you Richard !

 1/9/17   5     5     5     5     5   Richard was an amazing lawyer. Through my 5 year battle with a nightmare of an ex husband, he made sure justice was served. I can't thank him enough. He made even the most stressful situations seem easy. I couldn't have gotten through this with out him. I highly recommend him to anyone!!! Not only is he great, but all his staff are beyond amazing!! RID: 178939

 11/20/15   5     5     5     5     5   I am very pleased with my decision to hire Mr. Buck. He didn't waste time, nor did he allow my emotions to do so either. He's quick and to the point and his years of experience definitely paid off. Mr. Buck was easy to talk with, puts you at ease. He is very efficient and I feel that his rates are fair as he was able to accomplish in 3 months what my previous lawyers couldn't in 6 years! He kept his promise to me and got me what I wanted. Thank you again Mr Buck. Due to the nature of my ex, I'm sure we'll cross paths again in the future. RID: 161916

Click to report rating    1/2/15   5     5     5     5     5   Was referred by a a friend who had great success with Richard to handle my extremely complicated divorce. I was absolutely blown away how easy Richard made my separation happen with such little stress on my end. I was able to achieve a very great agreement on my end which didn't leave me in hardship. I cannot express enough my content, if you need a trusted lawyer Richard is a must to have represent you. I guarantee you will be absolutely blown away with what he has to offer you. RID: 148355
Click to report rating    12/23/14   3     3     3     3     3   I suspect the negative reviews are all from the same vindictive individual who I know had a bad experience being represented by this lawyer. It is this individual who is known to the courts and disliked by judges - not the lawyer. Making preposterous claims against a former spouse and making outrageous demands will drag your case on for years. I suppose this lawyer could be criticized for representing such a foolish individual. Posting numerous fake negative reviews is in line with the poor character of the person I suspect. RID: 148096
     12/21/14   5     5     5     5     5   I just finished a very nasty,long drawn out divorce case.After searching for a a very qualified lawyer which I needed for my case, I hired Richard Buck.The negative comments on the web site were definitely unsubstantiated. I was very happy working with him& especially the positive outcome he achieved for me. I am set for life now financially because of Richard. RID: 147993
     12/19/14   5     5     5     5     5   Just finished my settlement and want to relate my experience with Richard Buck... I found him to be very knowledgeable, diligent, and very patient of the antics the other side was throwing at us... His fees appear to be reasonable, although this is the first (and last) time I have been through this process, so its hard to be certain. Having said that, I have spoken to friends who have paid much more... Knowing that court would create even more acrimony as well as cost, he skillfully / strategically avoided court...He was always sensitive to my mood and appetite for conflict during the process, which was very comforting during what has been one of the most difficult processes I have ever experienced... His team was also extremely knowledgeable, supportive and responsive to the events as they unfolded... They were very effective in keeping me clam and informed of the process as it unfolded... I unreservedly recommend Richard Buck and would use him again if the situation was repeated... RID: 147905
     10/12/13   1     1     1     1     1   Terrible lawyer and terrible human being. If you are considering him-run. If you have him already-fire him-like I did and get a new lawyer.He likes to say he only had 3 divorce judgements not go in his client's favour in the last year. Very true because after he gets a large paycheck from you-he just settles in his office ( not in court ) and not in your favour. Absolute shyster. RID: 125145
     7/15/13   5     5     5     5     5   Best divorce lawyer I have ever met, he may cost Big bucks but well worth it. RID: 118608
     4/24/13   1     1     1     1     1   The only thing worst then loosing my wife, kids, house, 55K in lawyers fees and nearly my sanity is hiring this guy to represent me. RID: 109097
     11/23/11   5     3     3     3     2   My experience with Mr. Buck was horrendous. He dragged on my case simply for extra billing and promised me my day in court. When the day finally came, he settled immediately which left me wondering what he actually did for my $60K+ bill. My case should have been resolved quicker and at a fraction of the price. I was left dazed, confused, and with less assets. All the Richard Buck cares about are the bucks he can make off of you and not what is best for you. Like the first entry states, do yourself a favour and go with anyone other then Buck. RID: 55735
Click to report rating    12/3/10   5     3     5     5     5   Richard Buck is an excellent lawyer. His senior law clerk has always gone above and beyond for me- she deserves a raise! RID: 38032
