“I've used Richard Ross Associates and was so happy with the outcome. His skills to help negotiate outside the courtroom was unbelievable. Before I met him, I thought for sure it would be a difficult case. He defended my side but was able to find common ground with what we both wanted and was able to get me what I needed from the case. You will always get great service and the people that work for Richard really do care and do their best.”
“My family suffered for years under a harsh custody and visitation order. After taking both a financial and spiritual beating, I had given up hope. Nearing my breaking point, I called several law firms, looking for the help of any kind. Assuring me, "you don't have to live like this", Richard Ross Associates come riding in like the cavalry. Mr. Ross and his supportive, competent staff put their hearts into their work and literally turned our lives around. Our family and our dignity have been restored. To say the Family Court highly respects Richard Ross Associates is an understatement. Thank you, all of you...for delivering as you said you would.”
“I had the recent experience to hire Richard Ross Associates, for a somewhat tricky case. I felt totally confident that they would come through for me and they did with flying colors. Linda was the associate assigned to my case and she did a thorough, professional job. I've been recommending them for years and now I had first hand experience and would never hesitate to continue recommending them!!”
“Mr. Ross is a very experienced attorney and showed great professionalism. I couldn't be happier with the outcome. His knowledge is comforting.”
“
He made my dream to be able to live with my daughter come true.
Ten years ago, with different attorneys, I lost my custody case. My time with my daughter was limited to summers. About two years ago, during my daughter's summer visitation, four days before she had to return to her father, she suddenly broke down in tears and fears and begged me to not send her back to her father, because he treated her cruelly. After I heard her story, it broke my heart deeply and I promised her I would not allow anyone to harm her as long as I live. I interviewed over five law firms. They all told me that my case was too complicated and the duration of time was too short for an Ex-Parte, and they could not help me. I almost gave up hope, when a friend phoned me and referred me to Richard Ross Associates. I called right away and spoke to one of the associate attorneys. He accepted my case with confidence. He was very helpful and knowledgeable about my custody case. He helped me patiently on my case and treated me with respect. Soon I met the rest of the Richard Ross Associates staff who were all very friendly and knowledgeable. They were like friends to me. It didn't take too long before we won the case and I was awarded primary custody of my daughter. Thanks to Richard Ross Associates. They made my dream to be able to live with my daughter come true.
I would refer Richard Ross Associates to anyone, friends, and family in need of legal representation.

“Richard Ross was the answer to all of my legal needs! If you want a PIT-BULL of a lawyer fighting for you, then you hire Richard Ross. He is extremely skillful, witty, and brilliant in the courtroom. He makes you feel very comfortable about your case and doesn't give off that sleazy, "I'm in it for the money" feeling that some lawyers give you. He goes into every case like he has something to prove, and he proved it well to me in my case. I would highly recommend him to all of my friends and family. Thank you, Richard!!!”
