Mr. Abdallah came off to me as a super knowledgable and ethical attorney who understands the law. He was recommended to me by 3 different attorneys. His name kept popping up so I decided to give him a call. I have been in pro per and have been doing lots of legal research on my case to keep costs down. He was one of the very few attorneys who was familiar with the case law and statutes for my unique circumstances. After a quick assessment of my case he recommended I try to settle with the other party and continue working alone to keep costs down and retain services of an attorney closer to trial, provided my matter does not get settled. I felt like he was looking after my best interests. I would highly recommend Mr. Abdallah's services.

Richard over charges and under delivers. He have big ego and less respect to other lawyers. Not sure why he still practices until today but I know it’s just a matter of time until he gets fully exposed. I hired him, he didn’t deliver yet charged me for every follow up voice mail I left him 15m min without him calling me back. How fair is that.

Mr. Abdallah is my attorney in a contentious divorce case. He is not only well versed in the Family Law Code, but also very familiar with the specific local rules of Sacramento County. While he recognizes there is huge value in settling issues outside of Court, Mr. Abdallah is not afraid to take the fight to a Judge and advocate on my behalf. He is very skilled in litigating issues in Court. Mr. Abdallah is great at listening but he will not sugar coat the facts. Mr. Abdallah has responded quickly and thoroughly to all of my calls for help. I cannot imagine having any other attorney represent me in my divorce case.

I hired Mr. Abdallah to help with a very contentious divorce. I found his professionalism and empathy a great comfort in a difficult time. He was honest about our prospects and gave me realistic expectations throughout the process. Mr. Abdallah's representation gave me a far better outcome than I expected going into the process and I would highly recommend him to anyone who needs a great attorney.

Working with Rich has been an excellent experience. Rich has provided outstanding legal guidance through my divorce process. In less than a month I was receiving spousal support, it gave me the stability i needed to be sucessful. I always felt like everything was being taken care of, my emails and phones calls were returned immediately. My legal costs were efficiently managed throughout the process. I can't thank Rich enough, he positively changed my life. Thanks Rich!

I was introduced to Richard Abdallah through a very beautiful soul I call my sister. I whole heartedly thank Abdallah for taking on my cases and representing me as I couldn't have done this without him. I highly recommend Abdallah to anyone looking to hire an attorney. I was informed of Abdallah’s knowledge, expertise, and professionalism prior to meeting him. After meeting with my attorney and discussing my case with him I found him to be very kind, understanding, and very professional. I was very fortunate to have had the opportunity to be represented by this kind soul on two separate court matters in which both thankfully ended in our favor. My divorce case had ended in 2009 but in January of 2015 I was back in court for a custody matter. Prior to having an attorney I was extremely nervous as I had never dealt with court issues on my own and was scared of losing my children. Once Abdallah took my case and reviewed it, he took the time to explain the process in the simplest way possible instead of using fancy terminology to confuse me. He responded to my phone calls and emails in a very timely manner and kept me in the loop throughout the process. Just recently, October 2016, I was once again fortunate enough to be represented by this amazing soul who proved once again through his hard work and dedication to his clients that he's the right person to be represented by. I am in lost of words for this second experience I had with Abdallah as there was a very small window of time to work with. I originally thought I’d be able to represent myself and that my case wouldn't require an attorney until my case took a turn and I was in need of an attorney last minute. I literally discussed my case with Abdallah 5 days prior to my hearing and he took the time to hear me out and reviewed my case. By taking my case immediately in such short time proved to me that Abdallah is extremely confident in his abilities and his expertise. At our hearing I was to make a decision and he explained all the possibilities in the simplest terms to help me understand my position in the case, instead of rushing me to make a decision. He further presented my case using his professionalism, knowledge, and his expertise and was fully prepared to defend his client and he did, which resulted in a very positive outcome.

Richard is a very knowledgeable and professional attorney. He helped me get an excellent outcome for a trial. He always answers any questions or concerns promptly. If you are in need of a family law lawyer he is one of the best.

I needed representation on a support extension demand. It could easily have become drawn out and costly. Richard helped me analyze the risks and we were able to settle quickly and fairly, saving me time, costs and the possibility of a much greater long-term cost. He was effective and appreciated my point of view and desire to get it done. Thank you Richard!

As everyone who has gone through it can attest, divorce is typically a very long, complicated and overwhelming process. I was fortunate enough to find Richard Abdallah. His professionalism and expertise has made a huge difference in moving toward finagling and getting my divorce complete in less then two months, and best of all, he was very instrumental in helping me achieve all of my requested custody requirements. I couldn't have asked for a better advocate than Richard to handle my case. If you are feeling overwhelmed and alone in your divorce proceedings, do yourself a favor and hire Richard to get you through it all with the best results possible. Thanks again Richard!

Good guy to work with really friendly. Worked with me from the other side of the country as well.

When meeting Mr. Abdallah, I was scared out of my mind and confused as to how would be able to handle the stress and strain of this difficult process. He reassured me that everything was in his hands and asked me what my objectiveschedule were and what I needed the most. With every strenuous task that he had at hand, I felt confident in his ability to get what was needed done. He went above and beyond expectation and the results are, with out words, the greatest man alive. I was able to still be there for my children and go through the process with a clear mind so that I could be there for my family. You can't put a dollar sign on piece of mind when it comes to family but that's what Richard Abdallah did. I thank and my family thanks him every thing he has done for my family and I. There really is no words to describe his character and heart. Thank you Richard.

Richard was recommended to me by a brother of a friend who worked at a a law firm specializing in divorce cases. My friend's brother told me, "All the lawyers I work with are very very good, but Richard is better." I called Richard to set up an initial consultation. When I met with him in person, he immediately struck me as an intelligent and kind person. He asked me what was important to me in the divorce proceedings. There was no point, at any time during the proceedings, where I felt at all pressured by him to go after more than what I had initially discussed with him. My divorce was by far the worst thing I've ever gone through. Richard put a lot of effort into my case, which went on for almost 2 full years. During that time he kept me up to date with what to expect during the process and, several times, helped put my mind at ease when I was quite nearly at my wit's end. I consider myself extremely lucky to selected have Richard as my legal representation. I have 3 co-workers going through divorces right now, and it's clear from speaking with them, that none of their lawyers are in the same league in terms of concern for their clients. In addition to his overall good-natured and dedicated approach to representing me, Richard's billing was more that reasonable compared to what my co-workers are paying.
