Hired Attorney 2023Richelle represented me in a criminal matter in which I was falsely accused of a felony by police. She got the charged dismissed very quickly and is now representing me in a civil matter against the police. My emails were promptly returned, and she took time to answer my questions. Also, I appreciated the degree of attentiveness and consideration she gave to concerns that I routinely presented while the case was pending.
