"Complicated Divorce"

Richardson & Richardson represented me in an amicable divorce involving complicated issues primarily stemming from our being under water with our marital home. They were excellent and compassionate throughout.” — Pleased Client, April 2016

"Could Not Be Happier!"

“I found Richardson & Richardson through a friend’s recommendation when I needed to divorce my addict/abusive now‑ex husband. I could not have been happier with the outcome and how they handled my case. They were thorough, reasonable, and also tough. They are not the type of lawyers who are only in it for the money or who drag out your case — rather, they treated me like a human being and cared about protecting me and efficiently getting me through the most difficult ordeal of my life. Having them on my side gave me so much strength and confidence; I could not have done it without them. I hope no one finds themselves in the position that I was in — but if you do, they will be your champion!” — Marie, November 2015

"Child Custody"

“Outstanding and caring attorneys. Richardson & Richardson represented me in a custody case; I now have sole legal custody of my granddaughter. I would definitely hire them again should I need to, and I have already referred a client to them.” — Kate, November 2015

"Extremely Efficient"

“The Law Firm of Richardson & Richardson has been a rock during my post‑divorce and domestic violence issues. Their attention to detail, knowledge of the law, and ability to stay in tune with clients’ needs have given me peace, hope, and the ability to lead a happy and safe life with my family.” — Wendy, November 2015

"A Team to Respect"

Richardson & Richardson stepped in to finish a lengthy divorce after my first attorney screwed up royally. There was a huge mess to wade through, and they were quickly up to speed and willing to take on the opposing attorney without fear. On the final day, with negotiations stretching into hours because of opposing counsel, they remained focused. I came out of this divorce much better than I had hoped. Have no fear placing your legal matters in their hands.” — Mike, October 2015

"Passionate, Upfront, and Trustworthy"

“The exact kind of lawyers you want on your side! Richardson & Richardson worked together in prioritizing my needs better than I could at the time. Their decisions saved me time, money, and stress. Wonderful to work with — though I pray I never need their expertise again.” — Happy Client, March 2014
