Attorney Information
Overview
Pittsburgh divorce attorney Richard A. Julius chooses to practice family law because it is one of the few areas of practice where there is an opportunity to help people daily.
With a sharp focus on the intricacies of family law, Mr. Julius makes sure his clients are always kept up to date on the progress of their cases.
“I believe that an attention to detail is one of the most important traits that a family law attorney can have,” Mr. Julius said. In cases that so often involve countless moving parts, clients appreciate the knowledge and forethought that goes along with being able to assess the effects of each decision on each of those moving parts.
Mr. Julius understands that the system and process are not designed to make winners and losers. Winners are the people making intelligently aggressive decisions with their family’s best interests in mind.
“The best way to describe the type of attorney I am is intelligently aggressive,” Mr. Julius said. You should expect during your case to know your options and, to the extent that such prediction is possible, the effects of each option, including the consequences of inaction. That way, you can make the most informed decision about what is best for you and your family.
