Richard helped me out and directed me on how to handle my case on such a short time. He’s saved me a lot of stress as well as money. Richard was also straight up front with me and was right on the spot with how he felt my case was going to happen. Thanks Richard

I was referred to the Law Offices of Richard Isles by a friend who used them for her divorce. I decided that I needed a divorce and it was very hard for me. I called their office and the receptionist, Shelena, helped me set up a free consultation in their office that same day. I met with the lawyer, Richard Isles, and he was able to assure me that he would handle my matter from start to finish. Any time I had an issue, I was able to speak with one of the paralegals, Charlene and Nicole, who are extremely helpful and compassionate. I'm so glad that I hired this office to get me through one of the toughest times in my life. Richard was there every step of the way and made sure that I maintained 50/50 custody with my son. I would recommend this firm to anyone.

Only one star because he won our case but he still haven’t returned the rest of our deposit. They sent an email saying that we owe them but that’s BullSh!t!! They owe us money and they wouldn’t answer our emails anymore! So NO I don’t recommend. We’ll be getting a another lawyer to look at this tho.

Been going through a cps investigation. Be aware free consultation is only if you have pending court dates because nothing is free. Got thrown out with only able to say a few worlds. I understand it’s a business but i just wish they loved their job enough to hear us out. But instead got thrown out to words “I hope it works out” which was a total lie. At the end of the day I arranged babysitting and travel to go all the way out there and I couldn’t even get a half hour because I didn’t want to spend $300 if I didn’t have a case. I would just recommend to go somewhere else where they would sincerely care.

I’m a Father of 3 boys and let me tell you if you need a Divorce Attorney, then Richard Isles is your man. Mr. Isles is aggressive, intelligent, fair, and vary charismatic attorney. I’m so glad I had him in my corner for my custody hearing, I got way more then expected. He definitely earned every penny that I paid him. Mr. Isles will fight for you!

He was my 2nd lawyer and by far superior in every way. He was referred by my company and for good reason. He puts great emphasis on understanding  what result you would like to accomplish. His asst was also great to work with. He is confident and quick witted in the court room. Overall I would recommend him whenever dealing with difficult legal issues

If you want your Bank account drained and the very minimal done in your court case he's your man. Mr. Isles and his staff only care about your money and not helping you in your situation. I hired him for about 6 months and got no where in my case. Very poor communication on behalf of his whole office! I did not hear from his office until a payment was made and also did not hear from
either Mr. Isles or his staff until the day of my actual court date! We had no preparation done or anything. He also extended a court date for his own personal reasons and charged me for it. Long story short over $10,000 later I am representing myself and I am getting further in my case then I ever did with him and his staff. It's sad people take advantage of people like us when we are in such a vulnerable situation. I will NEVER hire him again or do I EVER recommend anyone do the same.

Worst experience ever. Overpriced, unavailable, and not a great guy in my opinion. There’s way better attorneys out there. I would steer clear of this one.

If I could leave ZERO stars I would. Just called for help...Just to simply get a consultation and it was a huge hassle already right there. I wish I caught the lady’s name that “didn’t help me”. I repeated three times what I was calling for and she still assumed something else and started to talk about that which had absolutely nothing to do with what I called for. I told her that and she’s giggling it off like it’s cute that she didn’t hear me THREE times. SO UNPROFESSIONAL. I ended up saying I’d call somewhere else because this is a bad first impression and yet she clearly heard that..got loud with me when she said ok thank you to rush herself off the phone before I can finish saying what I was saying. She was rude. Don’t go here.

My friend is going through a horrible divorce and needed some help. I had worked with Richard before with a family law issue and was extremely satisfied with the results. I recommended him to my friend and he was able to take care of him through his difficult ordeal. If you are looking for a divorce attorney or someone to help with a family law issue, please call Richard K. Isle.

Law Offices of Richard K. Isles represented me as the plaintiff in a Domestic Violence restraining order my ex-wife attempted to use for the sole purpose of denying visitation with our daughter. It was stressful but this law office offered me a fair rate from the start and they were beyond professional in dealing with my case; Richard crushed it in 20 minutes. Top notch attorney with a very fair rate that gets the job done. I can't say enough good about this law office, they enabled a little girl to continue a relationship with her father and exposed my ex-wife's attempt for exactly what it was.

We were fighting for custody of my step sons for 3 long and painful years of trying to prove the other parent unfit when the other parent decided to be a move away. We finally went to Richard Isles office at that point because instead of joint custody, the children were being withheld in an unsafe environment. Our attorney through them was Denise Motroni. In the span of a couple months (due to her fighting to get us an evaluation) we went from hopeless to getting primary custody. The judge was not listening to anything that was submitted showing neglect at the other home, even though the other parent was a move away and denying us our custody time, he even argued against doing the evaluation. If Denise hadn't insisted, we would have lost all but meager visits and the boys would still be in an unsafe, unstable, neglectful home as their primary. Instead, the evaluation the judge wanted to deny showed that everything we'd been saying was true and he agreed to change physical custody and award the other parent minimal visitation each month. Denise has an awesome paralegal Leigh who is extremely quick to answer and help.
I cannot thank them enough, they literally saved our children.

I Hired Richard Isles and got nowhere near the representation he presented. I Hired Isles, not anyone else and they either had no experience, or last minute -phone interviews while in court!!
Extremely disappointing to say the least. Future clients beware. Isles gives you subpar attorneys to represent your case.. Not worth the money$$

The Law office of Richard Isles has been a breath of fresh air during an emotionally trying time. Everyone I have had contact with has been more than helpful and extremely compassionate. Denise is my attorney and is very knowledgeable with all aspects of trial. This is a no nonsense law firm and I would highly recommend them to anyone searching for an attorney and staff that listens and appreciates these matters on a personal note. They have been with me every step of the way and have not failed to answer any questions I have regarding my case. They truly are concerned with the safety and welfare of children and fight hard to make sure that children involved get just that.... safety!!!

I didn't like anything about this place! I had one question and it seemed like all they were concerned with was getting me in the office anything I asked they didn't know but did know I needed to come in and the prices it was to come in! They did not seem to care to help! Very disappointing!! If we do indeed require a lawyer this is not the place for us!!!

Fantastic representation on my child custody case. Mr. Isles did an incredible job of presenting my case that I had self prepared. Mr. Isles' professionalism and congeniality are second to none. Very informative every step of the way. Much better than the two previous attorneys I had engaged for my on going situation.

Thank you very much Mr. Isles!

Update 7/7/15: So I am back at it fighting to maintain custody of my son. Mr. Isles got what we wanted (730 Evaluation for all parties) and what is in the best interest of my son. Mr. Isles schooled opposing council (a high price Orange County lawyer) and made sure my side of the story was heard and understood by the Judge.

Keeps House and 90% Custody

My case is now completed. My case was quite complicated and difficult. There were several trials. Through the lies and manipulation attempts and insanity, Richard K. Isles kept a very accurate perspective in all matters around the case. Richard saved my family, my home, my private and professional reputation. Without Richard, I was at risk of losing my children, my home, and more. He was able to detect, arrest, and place a stop to opposing constant lies and manipulation attempts. He believed in me. Where I started, I needed that first. I needed to fight back and Richard lights up when he stands up for you. There is no better place to see Richard in action then in a court room. He is at his best when most would fold under that kind of pressure. He has worked in Riverside for the majority of his career which means he knows the system here second to none. Richard's staff are excellent and they are very vigilant. I witnessed Richard in the court room many times and his court room talents. He simply does not like to lose. I witnessed even during sidebar meetings with the Judge. He is relentless. His very nature of "the will to win" is not inherent in all attorneys. If I was a lawyer, I would not enjoy going up against Richard. I feel bad for the opposing attorney's client. I would not want to be in their shoes. He knows the law, the legal system, how to ask questions and he knows how to expose the lies. I am very grateful that God connected me to Richard. It was really some kind of fate that I found him. I had another attorney prior to Richard who was nice but not even close to Richard's level. My life turned around for the better when Richard became my attorney. Without Richard K. Isles, I would not have come out of this ordeal without major pain and losses. The mere fact of having my children 90% of the time is some kind of gift to me. Richard K. Isles was able to prove to the judge the wrong doing where most people surely would have failed. I have a life time gratitude towards Richard K. Isles. I wish upon nobody to go through what I did and if they had to, they need a defender like Richard K. Isles. I have a nice future ahead of me now to enjoy with my children. I have since remarried (crazy as some may say - I still believe in marriage). My wife has had a child now and we have three children all together. Without Richard K. Isles, this positive future outlook would have taken a much different turn. Thank you Richard K. Isles. From the bottom of my heart. I have a good future to look forward to because of you.

I would like to say that the Law Offices of Richard Isles has been a tremendous help during this difficult time. They provided guidance through my entire divorce process. I was always able to get a hold of someone in the office whenever I had questions or concerns. They were patient and kind which was a relief. After 29 yrs of marriage this experience was nothing that I was prepared to deal with at the age of 70 but they got me through it. I would recommend their caring staff to anyone that would have to face this in their life. Thank you all again for everything that you have done for me.

The Attorneys’ and Support staff in the Riverside, CA office worked well with all clients. Even if the attorney is at court the support staff is able to assist and answer questions and/or concerns so no phone call is a waste of time. My divorce case was represented and resolved with exceptional results, my attorney represented me on every level and was able to secure all requested items from listed on the judgment.

The opposing counsel made everyone wait 2.5 hours and my attorney stayed with me the entire time, discussed strategy, possible changes and end results by the time everyone was ready to go into MSC I was able to let me attorney handle the case and discussions with confidence.

During the course of the divorce process my family suffered a loss, the staff here was very empathetic and caring. Though there was a job to do they took the time to ensure my personal matters were dealt with and continued to handle the day to day work load of the case. I appreciate the time and effort of this law firm!

Asking Attorney Isles and his team to represent me was the best decision I've made. He is incredible "on his feet" - a power player in the courtroom. He and his helpful staff are true veterans of the Riverside court system - they know the procedures and players better than anyone else. They are intelligent, strategic, and skillful in their representation and negotiations. It gave me a great sense of peace and confidence to trust them with my legal matter.

"My wife and I have not been right for a couple of years. I finally told her that I have rights as a parent, she got very upset and we argued. She called the police and a week later I found myself removed from my children and home/office.
I was facing a domestic violence restraining order. My wife of over 20 years was falsely accusing me of threatening her and threatening to take the kids out of the country. I hired Richard Isles’s office. Richard and his staff were great at keeping me informed and calm. I met with Richard several times before trial and he was very knowledgeable. He diligently went over with me how it would most likely be at trial.
The trial day came and Richard was amazing. The trial went just like he said. He was brilliant! I am now back in my home/office and taking my kids to school day to day. I am so pleased with Richard and his staff that I have hired them to represent me in my upcoming divorce.
Thank You Richard!

The only regret I have regarding Richard Isles, is that I didn't hire him first. He's fantastic!! I had the misfortune of hiring two previous lawyers before finding Mr. Isles. His knowledge and experience was invaluable. When we first met, I told him I was looking for an attorney who would keep me informed, return my calls or emails in a timely fashion and be honest with me. These are all things the other attorneys promised, but never delivered. Richard K. Isles delivered. He came to court prepared, presented my case in a professional manner, was compassionate, respectful and successfully navigated my complicated case through some very dark and emotional waters.

It bears mentioning that behind every great lawyer is a great staff. I can honestly say there's not a member of his staff that wasn't incredibly kind and amazingly helpful. If they tell you they're going to do something ... it's done and done right the first time.

I highly recommend Richard K. Isles with zero hesitation.

I highly recommend attorney Richard Isles and his staff lawyer in particular. Their expertise, professionalism and compassion were second to none. He made me feel confident throughout and his many years of experience litigating became evident in court.

I am a dad with shared custody of my sons. Prior to hiring this law firm I was pretty much ready to give up fighting for my children. I felt all roads lead to a dead end in getting shared custody. My Ex did everything in her power to alienate me from the two children I love for over three years. With the assistance of a close friend, this law firm was recommended.

After retaining this law firm I felt that there was a fighting chance to create a normal life for my children and I. He told me what to expect and the best approach to get me my sons. It was a unique and fresh approach. They quickly proceeded with the process, showed what I was doing for my sons, reduced support and changed my life.

We are truly grateful to Richard Isles and his staff for all their help. Without them I would have given up hope to get my kids. Without this law firm I don’t want to think of where I would be now. Their knowledge and court skill have resulted in a life changing outcome for my sons. Worth every penny spent. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a top notch family law attorney.

When I had the need to search for a Divorce Attorney I did my research. I looked at websites, called over a dozen, and met with four local lawyers.

Richard K. Isles was my final choice. My first impression was correct - that he knew the steps to take in my divorce, and he actually listened to my concerns ( which was primarily the need for an amicable settlement). I did not want to disrupt the childrens' lives beyond reason and needed to make the whole divorce ordeal as smooth as possible. This was exactly what I received.

No regrets. Job well done!

This is a first rate law firm which handled my unique case in a professional matter. The staff was very sensitive to my specific situation (being stationed abroad with a case in California). The attorneys knew military divorce to its fullest. In fact Richard Isles was a veteran of the Navy. They were diligent in responding to my emails quickly and informatively due to no telephone communications available on my end at the time. Their prices were reasonable as well.

It can be difficult when you are overseas relying on a law firm far away, yet I was provided, without delay, responsive strategic lawyering. I was confident from the start that my divorce was in good hands after my first phone consultation, then a follow up email from them. From that point on it was evident that my fathers’ rights would be protected and upheld in the court of law, even in my absence. In the end, I felt the law office provided professional service and would recommend them to anyone in the armed forces going through divorce or custody issues.

I was impressed by the three Family Law attorneys at this law office. In my opinion, they are all knowledgable with the law and stay on top of the ever-changing and complex issues surrounding child custody and visitation law. They personally helped me with my custody issues related to my daughter. The office saved me a lot of money, but more importantly came up with a visitation schedule that I could live with, and that will benefit my daughter. Highly recommended.

This was by far the worst experience I could have ever imagined for having a lawyer. It was my first, and definitely my last. Attorney Kaitlin sent me into court not only unprepared by not informing me of the type of information the court would ask for, but my completely neglecting to follow through with important papers for a telephonic hearing regarding the amount of child support I would have to pay. My child support jumped up ridiculously, and because of the attorneys neglegence, I was unable to attend my OWN hearing. I would never reccommend this law office, as the ONLY time they wanted to talk about my case was when I had money in my hand. the first question, before even hiring them I asked "Do you guys have a payment plan?" They were more than happy to work with me, until it came down to it. Richard Isles, Attorney Kaitlyn were extremely rude and uncaring once I didnt have $3000 for them to continue representing me. This is a horrible buisness establishment.

I've been going through a divorce for almost a year now, had this lawyer somewhere around 8 months and so far this office has been mediocre. Everyone is nice, but when you are going through a divorce, you are distracted and depressed. You need more than just nice. I have missed dates to file paperwork & went into default with the courts because they won't call you to remind you when something is due, not known what to put down on paperwork and struggled to reach someone at the office and when I do finally reach someone, they are appologetic, but 2 days later, unreachable again, even through email I struggle getting answers on what to do. I was hoping that this would be a place that would make sure that I turned things in on time, called me to make sure I didn't need help on paperwork and returned phone calls within the same day. I feel like because I am not a high profile case, it's not important to them to help me. I'm so far disappointed and thinking about switching lawyers.
