0.5 out of 5 stars

Full disclosure. Rick is opposing counsel for my dissolution case. I do have to point out though. He is 1 in 9 when it comes to trying to take custody away from me. It's costing Mom a lot of money and he doesn't deliver results. Mainly because he asks his clients to not tell the truth and thinks our great judges will fall for it. If you have questions. Contact me and I will share in more detail on the 9 hearings/trials he convinced Mom to make only to lose 8 of them.
