Testimonials

Praise for our firm.

“Rich saved my practice, but more importantly, he may have saved my life. It’s really hard to be in that situation and he took care of me as a person.”

— Dr. James D. Schlenker

“His enthusiasm is contagious for both his clients and the jury and his ability to build rapport with a jury is impressive.  He builds logical arguments that juries can understand. I cannot imagine that I would ever consider any other attorney were I ever in need again. ”

— Dr. Steven Sauerberg

“I just completed a 6-day civil lawsuit as a juror. Mr. Richard Hickey was the defendant’s lawyer. He was simply amazing. He was honest, down-to-earth, factual, wasn’t about the money, respectful to the other counsel, and even had a sense of humor. Way to go Mr. Hickey!”

— Janet M., Juror
