As a Syracuse divorce attorney, I’ve litigated family law cases for more than 29 years. In that time, I have handled hundreds of contested and uncontested divorces, including dozens of trials. I began my practice with a large upstate New York law firm and then practiced with a partner and several associates, where I was chief litigation counsel for seven years. In 2005 I began my solo practice, concentrating in divorce and family law. Located in Syracuse, New York, the Bombardo Law Office, P.C. regularly assists clients throughout central New York with all areas of matrimonial and family law.

Leave a review about your experience with this lawyer.Mr. Bombardo is nothing short of a superhero. My case was in a extremely difficult place when I came to him. Without going into full detail, the situation was dire and my rights as father were being viciously attacked. Furthermore I was victim to my previous attorney selling me down the river to the opposing side for about 2 years. Mr. Bombardo not only turned this case around on its heels, he saved my children. He immediately changed the narrative and checked the opposing side. From his first appearance on my behalf my case changed. He was a true advocate for myself and my children. Mr. Bombardo truly cares about his clients, treats his job with the upmost professionalism and is highly ETHICAL (which is difficult to find these days). The end result of my case was nothing short of amazing given the circumstances prior to hiring him. If you are considering hiring Mr. Bombardo, please look no further, you will not find a better attorney.
Excellent representation. Quick resolution. Appropriate and respectable court practices. Easily described as a just and law abiding lawyer. You will not be left in the dark about your case at all. You can count on Mr. Bombardo to treat you as a person and will handle your case to the best of his ability every time.
Mr. Bombardo was very thorough in my divorce proceedings. I could always reach him by phone. If not, Mr. Bombardo would promptly return my call. He worked hard to ensure all my questions were answered. His demeanor was courteous and respectful. I would definitely recommend Mr. Richard Bombardo to future clients.
Richard represented me in a divorce case. During the case he drafted multiple documents including a memorandum of law; each of which was clear, articulate, well thought out and provided a strong legal basis. Richard has a clear understanding of the law, process, and communicates clearly and effectivly on paper and in court. Through the challenges he maintained composure and a focus. He is an excellent attorney to have on your side.
Mr. Bombardo did everything in his will power to make sure I was divorced and happy. He always had my best interests at heart and went above and beyond any situations that may have created any challenges for my case. He is thorough, professional and patient. Mr. Bombardo always made himself available to answer all of my questions, and trust me I had plenty.
Mr. Bombardo helped me through my divorce. He went above and beyond and really squeezed the retainer, as the divorce was supposed to be uncontested and turned more time consuming than expected. Divorce is ugly and even in the lows, he was always kind to me with every question asked and my low/frustrated moments… to have his support meant a lot. And at the end of the day, a lot of outcomes rely on the judge, and I am glad to have Richard on my side as I got the best settlement. And ultimately, my freedom, thank you Richard for all your patience, tenacity, fight, and humor. Best, Katie
I just wanted some basic information. Was told things that didn't add up. Was told in 15 years, nobody has ever had an uncontested divorce. Really? Hourly rate plus filing fee left a couple thousand dollar discrepancy. When I pressed what that was, he hung up on me.
Richard helped me file for divorce, however, I waited a month for his process server to serve the papers which never happened. I ended up firing him because my ex had adequate time to lawyer-up after she saw the process server show up at the door on our google home a week after I filed. After firing him, Richard finally told me the process server had been trying to serve her multiple times and my ex would even talk through the google home and say she was breast feeding. The process server then told him my ex said I had been "lurcking" around my property and terrifying her which he didn't feel the need to tell me. He then blamed me for her not getting served because of that lie! I have the email saved even though he tried redacting it! I've never met a more incompetent "professional" in my life. He clearly is either clueless or had no intention of representing me. I was then charged $2100.00 for his so-called "Services". He proved to be extremely gullible and lacks knowledge.
Don't fall for it. Completely air-headed, lacks organizational skills, won't let you know when he's on vacation, and works alone so you cannot reach anyone when you need him most. Then he will blame you for his inability to even serve divorce papers. Worst experience of my life, even worse than the divorce itself.
Absolutely the worst! Found out he was related to my neighbor I won a lawsuit with. Lies. Check out my Facebook post For the audio proof and story. Michael Orbino In response to his response below; as you will see on my Facebook he was caught in his web page lies the day after court. The two hour conversation on Sunday was him crying and begging me not to report him to the bar association.even offering me my money back if I didn’t. Then he even had a “story to tell the judge” (lie) that could maybe “help you”. As you will se I declined. Even going as far as swearing on his mother’s soul. I speak nothing but the truth. You sir are one big lie.. I will make more posts with the other evidence. Should we discuss the confidential email you sent me? You can’t lie continue to lie when there is video/audio, email, text and other overwhelming proof. Save up your lies for your own defense. You thought I was just some tattooed loser “Arian Nazi”
