After extensive research on finding the right attorney for my boyfriend, we went with Stephanie. After speaking with her we knew she would be the right attorney for him as she is very knowledgeable having been on both sides of the laws and her years of experience. My boyfriend who was facing a felony charge with a strike, she managed to get it lowered to a misdemeanor! We felt confident in her and she delivered!

She is the best.

Stephanie stands out as an amazing lawyer. She has many great reviews and qualifications. I needed a defense attorney (my daughter had a stalker/adult man harassing our family). I dropped by their office unannounced (desperate, didn't want to wait any longer for a lawyer to call me). I was greeted by her paralegal / admin? This review is really for her actually. She was so inviting, didn't stop me because I didn't have an appointment. She walked me to this very beautiful, comfortable room with so many books, gorgeous home-like feeling. Sense of safety and belonging. She listened to everything I had to say, sympathized and without false agreement, gave her honest opinion, saw our side (the stalker was totally out of line) shared some history with a similar issue which made me feel more comfortable speaking with someone who had gone through a similar situation. Unfortunately, Stephanie does not handle Restraining Orders BUT, she referred us to Adrienne Dell (please see her reviews) who saved us. I was told they both went to school together and are equally impressive. I am beyond grateful for Stephanie, Stephanie's Admin/Paralegal and Adrienne. Somehow it all worked out and came together. Their school should be proud of such wonderful humans. I hope she sees this and knows how much of an impact our short meeting had on me. Her referral saved my daughter. There is a reason these two have are the best. Thank you!

I am looking for help in dealing with the City of San Jose Code Enforcement department. Stephanie might be able to help me.

Stephanie is the Greatest Defense Attorney around. I was referred to her from a friend regarding my situation. She took care of me from the start. She explained what will happen and set me up from the start with the guidance I needed. It was a pleasure to work with a wonderful Attorney who has empathy for her clients. I will never forget my experience with Stephanie, I gained an Attorney but best of all I gained a new friend. I was exonerated of the charge and case dismissed. Thank you Stephanie!

Stephanie Rickard, a great domestic violence attorney who successfully negotiated the dismissal of my case. As a 21-year-old college student, I found myself in a predicament I never imagined myself in. Ms. Rickard displayed an unrivaled degree of professionalism, compassion, and legal skill from the minute I contacted her. Stephanie took the time during our initial conversation to understand the complexities of my issue. She listened carefully, asked probing questions, and instantly put me at ease with her kind approach. What distinguishes her is her real care for her customers' well-being; she saw me as more than a case number, but as a person in a terrible circumstance. If you are unlucky enough to require the services of a domestic violence attorney, go no further than Stephanie Rickard. Her mix of legal knowledge, sensitivity, and tenacity makes her an outstanding advocate. I heartily suggest Stephanie to anybody looking for a knowledgeable and sympathetic attorney to help them navigate the legal system's intricacies.

Stephany is an amazing attorney she took care of me No words can explain how thankful and blessed I am for her services to any LGBTQ plus member out there struggling to find a good lawyer, I recommend Stephany Ricard hands-down she is the best in the business she is amazing at her job. She is one of kindest ladies I’ve ever met not only is she kind she is caring she gets the job done she fought for me when no els would and I will never forget what she did for me

Stephanie's honesty, experience, and mastery of the legal system surpasses virtuosity. Miss Rickard, is not judgmental, and commands court room respect on an un precedented level. Her dominating blend of fire and ice confidence, whether your situation is one that is a CNN news eliciting high profile case, or a first dui, is treated with equal aggressiveness and gets life changing, freedom based results. She's surrounded herself with a hard working, friendly, highly intellectual staff, and has affordably gone to battle for me, with a 100% success rate on several occasions. One such occasion, the second she walked into the court room on my behalf electricity was struck, her heart ablaze, and a very serious false, dishonest, allegations against me, that could have robbed me of what is most precious in life, freedom, was IMMEDIATELY dismissed and later that afternoon I was with my loving family and back to work the next day. Steph is a Valkyrie, a winner, and in the most competitive peninsula in the world (the Silicon Valley ) the Law office of Stephanie Rickard is unbeatable.

Where do I begin? I came to Stephanie with nothing good going for me. She never made me feel judged, she as well as her staff never made me feel like a “criminal.” It has been a long time coming to be free from the burden of proceedings, to sentences. It would have been much longer had I not been blessed enough to have had Stephanie in my corner. Thank you!

Stephanie is extremely professional and compassionate. She thrives for her clients and makes sure she’s their every step of the way. She helped my husband with a case and always had an outstanding communication. I highly recommend her!

Stephanie is one of the Best Attorney's you can ever reach out to. I required some legal assistance and her name popped up a lot in my research, I had reached out to other attorneys prior to reaching out to her, when I did reach out it was through a text message very late in the night expecting a text or a call next day. But I got a call from her within 30 mins. I have to admit I was extremely stressed at that moment as I needed some help. That one Phone call in the night where she heard me and asked me to come to her office thee next day explaining the do and don'ts that very night, specifically she told me to stay out of internet and reading or researching anything such as reviews or comments over the internet about users experience in general was a great plus. There is a lot of negativity out there... Since I met her in the office I knew I was in safe hands, and I should say she has taken absolute care of me through the process and made me feel safe and made sure that I know every step with absolute clarity. It is said to be successful you need IQ (Intelligence Quotient) and EQ (Emotional Quotient) in balance. That is exactly what I found with Stephanie. I should also call out her office and staff. Extremely caring and they make you feel as safe as you can feel. I would recommend Stephanie 100%.
