The best lawyer. Friendly, knowledgeable of the laws, great communication, honest, and straight forward. Richard was very empathetic and the assuring, letting me know this would be a process i would get through and this made it easier for me. Richard was always available in accompanying me to all court dates and had great relationships with the courts. I would refer Richard to everyone who is in search of good legal advice and representation. Thanks again for all your help and support.

Simply the best! After another lawyer was unable to get me the resolution I desperately needed for my case and career, Rich was able to get it done. And even saved me over $10,000 in fees! He is fast, efficient, explains the process and knows his stuff inside and out. If you need an experienced lawyer who fights fervently for his clients, Rich is your guy!

I had five charges against my License with several points going to be added with a guilty plea. I did some research and decided to go with Richard Hochhauser’s firm. From my experience it would be a mistake for anyone needing an attorney to go with anyone else. He got me an extension from original court date, stayed in constant communication, gave me the time of his arrival for the day of so I was not waiting in the courtroom all day. Within 10 min of his arrival, I was called and had all 5 of my charges dismissed. An absolute perfect outcome. Thank you Richard.
