Mr. Canlas is a highly intelligent, dedicated, and hard working attorney. He fought for and stood by my son in his darkest hour. He is ethical, compassionate, and is able to think on his feet. Words cannot express my gratitude to him for obtaining justice for my son.

Richard was professional and knowledgeable. He promptly returns phone calls or emails. He got me the best possible outcome for my case. I hope to never be in need of his services again, but he is my guy if the need occurs!

We hired Mr. Canlas to represent our son. Mr. Canlas came to us highly referred, and I am so grateful to his guidance getting my son's felony drug charge dropped. Our son was 17 years old at the time campus police found a Delta 8 vape pen in his car during school hours and on school property. There was a K-9 Unit on campus, which led to a search of my son's car, and then his arrest. Mr. Canlas was always direct and very responsive to emails throughout the ordeal. There were never any questions left unanswered. We were informed every step of the way, would hire again and highly recommend.

After doing some research on other attorneys in the area, I hired Richard Canlas to represent me in my case. He sticks to the facts of the case, and keeps the process as simple and direct as possible. He remains in communication with the courts during the case, and will push toward a jury trial if necessary. I really appreciate the effort he applied. Thanks again

Richard Canlas is such a great lawyer to have. If you're in need of a Lawyer to help you with your case, you should choose him. He helped me out and was always responsive. Any information that he needed, I gave it to him and he would handle it according to the law. I am so Grateful and Thankful that I had the privilege to have him as a lawyer. Even though every case is different, I was Blessed and Lucky but I'm positive that he will handle your case accordingly so that you will not have to worry about what your outcome will be.

Richard Canlas represented my husband better than I could have ever imagined. My nerves were calmed and the process was always explained, My husband’s life was truly at risk with the charge he was facing (first-degree felony murder) even tho it was a self defense case the DA was out to take my husband life away. Richard NEVER gave up and worked countless hours on his case, and was always very patient, and professional! We became a family because we cummunicated so much throughout this process, Richard showed his true emotional towards my husband’s life and that was our main goal for choosing amazing attorney. Richard and his team put so much preparation into the case I couldn’t have asked for anything more! I was particularly impressed with his knowledge of the process and his straightforward advice. He's been doing this for some time and has not only good lawyer instincts but hard earned wisdom. In the trial phase it was clear how thoroughly Richard and his team had prepared, he accepted our case knowing it would be a tough one. He showed compassion for us and the trauma my husband and I had both been through I highly recommend Richard Canlas. He’s a WINNER!!!! My husband can still have his life with his 3 daughters and wife again thanks to Richard and his team!!!

Mr. Canlas represented me when I was 17 years old, and I am thankful to this day that my family hired him. At the time of my crime, I was caught up with a bad crowd and making poor decisions which landed me in some trouble. When Richard came into the picture, he had his work cut out for him because I had already confessed my non-violent crime to the police. It was an uphill battle from there, but he guided me every step of the way. Richard never took any shortcuts and worked to get pre-trial diversion first. When that was unsuccessful he started working on the next best thing, and so on and so forth. Eventually, my case reduced from a felony to a class B misdemeanor and I received 5 months of probation (first time offender). Without Richard, I would not be where I am today. The entire experience put me on the straight, and it wasn't until recently that I realized how lucky I was to have someone like Richard in my corner.

I found myself in a position that I never thought I would never be in, I reached out to some trusted contacts and Richard's name came up repeatedly. I set an appointment, he listened and retained all of the facts, the next day I brought him his retainer and he got to work, he did not over promise and he shot me straight, he really knows his way around the judicial system and I put 100% trust in him and he proved to be the right choice, during our first court appearance, the district attorney made an offer and he could have easily advised me to take it to close the case, but he really encouraged me to keep fighting and I am glad I did, charges dismissed!!! Thank you Richard! Highly recommend!! J.c

I will forever be grateful for the work Mr. Canlas did on my son's behalf. He was contacted, immediately responded and collected the information needed to make sure my son was protected from a false charge that would have ruined every aspect of his life. He kept me informed as to what steps were being taken and the progress being made to ensure my son was fully represented. Mr. Canlas is very professional and achieved a successful conclusion.
