"After going through a brutal three-year divorce and losing everything, I was completely overwhelmed, facing wage garnishments, and just trying to survive. Richard Symmes didn't just look at me as a case number--he treated me like a human being.

He responds quick, sometimes within minutes of sending an email and delivers really good informative answers. If you want an attorney who combines top-tier expertise with real, genuine compassion, Richard is the best in Washington. Absolutely incredible!" read more

Not having a clue about selling my home that wasn't through the usual real estate agent process, I needed expert oversight from beginning to end. Richard responded the same day to my initial request and all my questions through the process were answered quickly either by phone or text. The contract and documents were amended from his input and to my benefit. Cost was a flat rate and very reasonable. No indication that there might be more cost down the road. From initial inquiry to funds from the sale in my account went quickly. I'd like to think I've found a trustworthy attorney for any future needs. read more

I spent many wasted months debating whether or not to file for bankruptcy, thinking it would be a very long, drawn-out, and ultimately humiliating process.

His rates are reasonable and he is very thorough, treating me with respect and compassion throughout the entire process. I cannot recommend him more highly. read more

Incredible lawyer. Very knowledgeable on IP law. Richard is very fair with his pricing - plus you must consider the money he saves you by representing you. He really took an interest in understanding every little detail of my situation - which others did Not. This made me feel very confident in his recommendation for a solution. Not only that, but he is the most responsive human on this planet. My wife doesn't even respond to my txt'd or calls like Richard. His responsiveness alone is worth 5 stars. I highly recommend. Last note: Just reach out. When you see how quickly and efficiently he works, you'll see what I'm preaching read more

I had a bankruptcy discharged in 2018 with Symmes Law Group. If you are looking for an attorney Symmes Law Group is by far the best to go to. I live close to 4 hours away with plenty of attorneys who consistently either canceled appointments or made me feel like I was just another (customer). Symmes Law Group went above and beyond to help me with my case and what literally shocked me the most was I received a response on a Saturday morning around 5 or so in the morning. No attorneys will reach back out on their day off and at that time but he did. Well worth every penny spent and I promise you will be more than satisfied. read more

Richard is a pleasure to work with who exemplifies patience, thoroughness, and great customer service. He is extremely responsive even during non-business hours and really takes the time to explain in great detail. Richard, thank you for all your support!! read more

I contacted this firm around 5:30 PM yesterday. Richard replied my message very quickly and we had few chat on the bankruptcy process till 6:30 PM. He guided me the possible process to handle my great amount of margin debt which might occur on betting the wrong direction of GME, and IB blocked my access to close the position due to negative equity. It started few K to over 1.3 M in the worst time. With his guidance, I was confident that I can handle it well and know I can contact a security lawyer first to dispute the debt. It's a life saving had the right expert stand behind me. It's a good ending that equity became positive just now and I close the position and no more issue. I am happy I don't have to contact a bankruptcy lawyer, but still happy to write this review that Richard helped me in my most difficult time. read more

Richard is phenomenal and extremely responsive. I contacted him with my situation and he walked me through the Chapter 7 process every step of the way.

I contacted Mr Symmes partly on what i saw in the reviews on Yelp. Unfortunately, I discovered that he basically pushed me to do a Debt Settlement plan or Chapter 13 and never discussed Ch 7 as an option. I have since discovered that Ch 7 is a viable option for me. Besides all this his fees were twice what it is for other lawyers in the area. Before deciding to go with this law group. Talk to a few others. There are better options out there. read more

FANTASTIC legal service! We had the opportunity to work with Richard Symmes, esq. on a legal matter and he was extremely responsive, a good communicator, and most importantly he was very easy to deal with all throughout our relationship. We were under a tight deadline to file our documents before the end of the calendar year and Mr. Symmes worked diligently to get everything completed and filed well before the deadline.
