His communication throughout the process was excellent -- timely, professional, and easy to understand. Highly recommend Richards Law and J.R. if you need clear, reliable legal advice.

Thank, J.R.! John (J.R.) Richards represented us in dealing with a non-payment of rent tenant in Oakland area. We were happy to repossess our property in less than three months. J.R. had been very responsive since we retained him as our attorney and punctually delivered what he told us at the very beginning. J.R. charged very fairly and is a real professional, compassionate, approachable and practical person to work with. J.R. is the No.1 choice of landlords in need of legal assistance.

I had Hire John Richards for some real estate eviction service he charge me $2,000. For a retainer cash my check and never returned any of my email or phone calls. He also told me that I can save 10% if I write a check or cash so I wrote him a check BIG MISTAKE . Even after checking his website and his review from other clients they must be all phony clients.

As a new homeowner, I needed help with occupy tenant case and I had no idea where to go for help. We were not expecting our problem to be solved easily or quickly. I called John to discuss the very stressful situation. He gave very good advice and guidance. He is professional and very knowledgeable. Our case were settled in 3 months! I'd would definitely call him in any future issues I might encounter. Thank you John. You are amazing!

When it came to selling a small house we inherited in Pleasant Hill, we felt like we had an expert totally on our side in John Richards. As a lawyer, he had knowledge and experience in the areas of real estate and real estate law, but more importantly, he listened to what we wanted, and pointed out our choices based on what we wanted, every step of the way. He worked for a low flat fee, payable when/if the house sold. In our case, there were no frills, like staging, facelift, and landscaping. This was perfect for our damaged-by-tenant property. He did his homework, which included assessing the market in the surrounding neighborhood, and the unique selling points of our property within that neighborhood. He handled minor issues like making sure all light fixtures had bulbs and that current smoke detectors were installed, per law. These little things took a big load off our minds. We chose not to go with the very highest offer, as the second-highest was from a couple who intended to live in the house and fix it up rather than flip it. Still, the house sold for significantly more than the asking price, and closed escrow within a month of signing the contract with him. We highly recommend his services.
