Click to report rating    2/27/24   5     3     3     2     3   I think there are way more criteria than the 5 listed to rate a lawyer. This website and rating scale is designed poorly. Richard went above and beyond in allot of ways. I had some issues that I wo t get into but at the time he had health issues that are now resolved and I chalk those up to that. Overall it was like most separations. A lose lose. He was up against a narccisitic spouse and they are unreasonable at best, who was rep'd by an inexperienced "know it all" who cashed in hard providing her client poor advice and dragging on things unessesarily. Richard was mostly the voice of reasons but it was also good that I knew when to speak up and get the whole lot of them realigned as my own bank account hemoraged. All said and done, I would recomend him for mediation stuff and I don't know how he does in counrt because we never went to trial but I suspect he's quite good there based on his countenance and demeanor RID: 268742
Click to report rating    12/5/19   1     1     1     1     1   Wastes a lot of time shuffling paper and fabricating stories to increase billable hours. Plays dirty and lines his own pockets. Very disrespectful, rude, a very unhappy and unpleasant person. Does not follow rules. His assistant Diane is a real pissed off at life type of person also. RID: 216725
Click to report rating    11/13/19   3     1     1     1     1   Real caring and passionate until he gets your retainer. Did not listen to simple requests about contacting opposing plaintiff.Could not follow simple instructions, zero follow up after hour long meeting, zero feed back. Coughed up useless emails to the otherside to rack up retainer. Did not return emails. Diane his loyal assistant had no reading comprehension skills and made multiple mistakes would not admit any wrong doing. RID: 216174
Click to report rating    8/10/15   5     4     4     5     5   I think he's pretty good and helpful. He helped me with confronting my cheating spouse in order to get my alimony. RID: 157933
Click to report rating    8/9/15   5     4     5     4     4   I'm happy so far with his work. He defends women for their rights against male partners who tried to screw them over. RID: 157901
     3/20/14   4     1     1     1     1   Could be a very knowledgeable lawyer, however the way he conducted my case was poor, bad advise, didn't call me, left my case sitting for a while... his main interest is just how much money and keep the case open, no solution whatsoever until one day, gave me his word and next thing a Law sues was delivered... i am seeing him on the Law BAR association now, really bad. RID: 134124
