Hired Attorney Kevin J. Chapman

Kevin is the best lawyer in all of Arizona. He helped me understand my possibilities really well, the laws too and a real plan to help me. He took the time to answer all my messages with details. He really took all my requests into consideration. I am French and my English is not perfect, I do not know the laws well also in America. But with Kevin everything was so clear. He will definitely be my lawyer for all my life. He is the most humane and compassionate and honest person I have ever met in America. He's not just a lawyer, he has something even more powerful, like an angel. I am filled with gratitude that God put it on my path. Thank you Kevin for being such a perfect human being Thx thx

Hired Attorney Brian D. Strong

If you are able to afford Brian, he is the best that money can buy. We interviewed numerous attorneys and he is the only one that could give us concrete answers and came up with an offensive strategy rather than let the prosecutor dictate everything. I can't recommend him enough.

Hired Law Firm

The information and counsel that we received was not good. It was handled by a law student and the legal counsel was not dependable. We are 6 months + into the chapter 13 and still have not finalized the agreement. The pc left the company and we were handed over to another attorney that had been hired to replace the original attorney and to take over for the law student. New attorney is good but ended not being able to keep what they assured us we would. Very disappointing.

Hired Law Firm

They charge highly inflated amounts and have 3-5 people doing the same task and billing for all people on the task. They are very slow to respond to critical issues and will not back you in court for advice they give you. You will be left hanging and they will offer no help with redirect. They do not take responsibility for their mistakes. They will stop working on your case if you do not pay them at their ridiculously high fee rates fast enough. They are unethical.

Hired Law Firm

We only won because we FIRED them. Do NOT hire this firm. Only after 8 months of floundering and over $33k in bills, I found out that no lawyer at RC&B even practices family law. They misled us about their expertise and used my case to train a paraprofessional who was deeply unqualified. Her supervising attorney—an estate lawyer—wasn’t equipped to guide her, yet I was double-billed for his oversight. I paid for him to teach her, and for every costly mistake she made along the way. They missed deadlines, ignored emails, and left us to invent our own legal strategy—then charged us for their on-the-job learning. Her first-ever deposition (on my case) was so poorly handled, opposing counsel openly laughed at her multiple times. Once I fired them and hired a real family law attorney, we won quickly, affordably, & with absolute precision. RC&B’s misrepresentation, negligence, & unethical billing caused untold stress, financial loss, and emotional harm to my daughter & my family.

They totally blew the case. Did not file paperwork properly. Never communicated with the clients without being prompted. One partner left the firm during the suit virtually destroying any chance of settlement.

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.
