"It got expunged completely from my record. My life just went on. Richard made such an effort to prove my innocence and I couldn’t thank him enough for the hard work that he put in for my case."

"I trusted Richard and his law office with multiple charges. I have never used a hired attorney before him. I was very nervous about my future and what was to come.
