Ray Shild has been kind, compassionate, knowledgeable and very encouraging during a very hard time. I hired him to represent my husband at the strong recommendation of a friend I have known for a long time. He is competent and comes up with various ways to look at and work through a difficult legal situation. Even something that many lawyers will not touch. He cares for justice for the underdog and people who society hate even if they are falsely accused. He was willing to work with our unique situation when many attorneys will not help, or will not do a competent job. Ray Shild, Esq is very thorough and is very experienced in thee area we hired him for. He is helpful and respectful and well as creative in solutions to very difficult problems.

Hired Law Firm

We've had over a dozen different child custody attorneys within the Treasure Valley. Still not satisfied, we continued to look. We were frustrated and felt defeated when we walked into Ray's office. We were tired of getting the runaround and didn't have high hopes as Ray came out to greet us. Soon after working with Ray, and his wonderful staff, we quickly gained back our hope and confidence. After Ray helped facilitate a meeting with the Judge and Opposing Counsel, we were overwhelmed with gratitude. Not only did we settle with more than what we could have hoped for, we felt a heavy weight lift off our shoulders that we had been carrying for seven years. We see a new future with our children. Something exciting and joyful. We couldn't thank Ray enough and that is why I am writing this today. Please give him a chance. He will take care of you!

Hired Attorney Raymond Schild

My husband and I have been through over a dozen attorney’s in the Treasure Valley and NO ONE has gotten us closer to our end goals than Ray. I can’t say enough great things about him and his staff. He doesn’t want to waste time and is conscious about our finances. We were very nervous to switch attorneys, yet again, but gave Ray a try and we are extremely happy we did. We have been dealing with a narcissistic ex and Ray helped us slim up our Divorce Decree and make the necessary changes to keep the ex in line. Every attorney we’ve had has been afraid to go against the ex’s attorney, but Ray went right up to him and didn’t back down. He is knowledgeable and compassionate!! Thank you Ray! Thank you for giving us a better life with our children.

Raymond Schild, the best attorney in the Valley! With three previous attorneys I can absolutely say, I finally found one who cares about my situation & is taking the time to actually work & help. He's very clear about what to expect, how he operates, communicates, & bills. He's honest, forthright & offered solutions that I didn't know were possible. He's shown me ways I can participate & save myself billing hours. I so wish I could have found him long ago, saving myself time, money & grief. I absolutely love Ray's demeanor, his attitude, & I'm telling you, this guy has a good heart. He's been incredibly accommodating, solution focused & I finally feel I'm advancing confidently in my case. He's brought peace of mind & hope that I can make it through this difficult process. I know my kids & I are in good hands. His office staff have all been excellent! I'm impressed by their quick response time & their knowledge about my case. Call Ray, I'm telling you, you will love him!

Hired Attorney Raymond Schild

I'm telling you, this guy is amazing. I've worked with three other attorneys in the Boise area & Ray is the BEST! First off, he's very accommodating. When I first asked to meet him, I requested, "soon." He immediately offered to come in early the next day at 8 AM to make time for me! He's very clear about what to expect. He explained his communication, billing, & general processes. He has extremely quick response times & his office staff are all excellent. Mostly, I like his honest, straightforward approach to my case. He's offered solutions I didn't even know were possibilities & helped me achieve my goals. I feel like I'm in good hands, he seems to care about my situation & genuinely wants to see progress and success. He's willing to put in the work hours; which is exactly what I need. He also walked me through ways I can do work myself & save myself billing hours. I wish I found him earlier, as I finally feel confident & even peaceful about my case. Ray's your guy.

It is not often that relief is granted from the SOR. I was fortunate enough to have the guidance of Mr. Schild, and it was critical in paving the way for me to be granted relief, and to have my info expunged! Do not expect any sugar coating. Mr. Schild will tell you like it is. If you screw up, he will tell you! Follow his (their) directions, and your chances of success are very high. I cannot express how respectful and diligent the staff have been throught my case. Highly recommend you get a consul!

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
