    I hired Rick P and paid a $3,500 retainer, expecting effective legal representation. Rick claimed this would be his cost for a Modification of Parenting Time. 4 months later, my motion never got heard and he’s requesting another $6,200 from me. However, my case was delayed for a month after payment, and when it did move forward, deadlines set by the court were missed. He failed to inform me he is not able to be present in the courtroom in front of Hon. ****** - I had to find that out from the judge. Despite my repeated requests, he failed to take necessary actions on my behalf and instead seemed to work in favor of the opposing attorney and what she wanted. Communication was poor, billing practices were questionable, and when I requested that he withdraw from my case, he refused. I would not recommend this attorney based on my experience.

BBB Business Profiles are provided solely to assist you in exercising your own best judgment. BBB asks third parties who publish complaints, reviews and/or responses on this website to affirm that the information provided is accurate. However, BBB does not verify the accuracy of information provided by third parties, and does not guarantee the accuracy of any information in Business Profiles.

When considering complaint information, please take into account the company's size and volume of transactions, and understand that the nature of complaints and a firm's responses to them are often more important than the number of complaints.

BBB Business Profiles generally cover a three-year reporting period, except for customer reviews. Customer reviews posted prior to July 5, 2024, will no longer be published when they reach three years from their submission date. Customer reviews posted on/after July 5, 2024, will be published indefinitely unless otherwise voluntarily retracted by the user who submitted the content, or BBB no longer believes the review is authentic. BBB Business Profiles are subject to change at any time. If you choose to do business with this company, please let them know that you checked their record with BBB.

As a matter of policy, BBB does not endorse any product, service or business. Businesses are under no obligation to seek BBB accreditation, and some businesses are not accredited because they have not sought BBB accreditation. BBB charges a fee for BBB Accreditation. This fee supports BBB's efforts to fulfill its mission of advancing marketplace trust.
