I cannot thank Stephanie enough. Before finding her, I was with another firm that treated me like a just another paycheck—they were transactional, cold, and I felt like they only cared about the money, not my life. Switching to Stephanie Rickard was the best decision I ever made. From the first phone call, the difference was night and day. Stephanie is incredibly human, empathetic, and actually listened to the context of my situation. She didn't just look at the paperwork; she looked at the person. She moved quickly and used her experience to resolve my matter completely before it turned into a nightmare. She achieved the absolute best possible outcome for my family, allowing us to move forward with our lives in peace. If you feel like your current lawyer is just going through the motions, call Stephanie. She actually cares.
I was involved in an unfortunate incident in which I needed a criminal defense lawyer. As a tech and medical professional I had a lot at risk and I was not going to take any chances. Before ultimately choosing the Law Office of Stephanie Rickard, I did shop around and got different quotes. When I spoke with Stephanie on the phone and told her the story of what happened, she was very sympathetic to my unfortunate situation. Not only did she provide me with a reasonable quote based on what I was facing or the circumstances but she spoke with high confidence which is ultimately why I chose to go with her firm to represent me. You can tell by the way she speaks that she knows exactly what she's doing. I provided her with all the information I had and she handled the rest. My case never reached the court. Stephanie and her receptionist are very friendly and you can communicate with both of them if and when needed. I am very pleased with the outcome of my case and very grateful for Stephanie and her team.

Words cannot express how grateful I am to have had Stephanie represent me. I was facing serious charges related to a complicated personal situation, and I was overwhelmed and unsure of what to do. I found Stephanie on Google and was immediately impressed by her 5-star reviews. I reached out to her on a Saturday, and she responded right away. Before I had even hired her, she took the time to explain my options and walk me through what to expect — something I genuinely appreciated. Once I decided to move forward, Stephanie exceeded every expectation. She was consistently responsive via text, kept me informed at every step, and made a very stressful situation feel manageable. She ultimately got my charges dismissed — and did so far quicker than I ever could have imagined. What truly sets Stephanie apart is that she cares. She didn’t treat me like just another case or file number. She listened, she understood, and she was extremely empathetic for my unfortunate circumstances. It was her empathy that made it clear that she was invested in achieving the best outcome for me.
