Eric M. Rice
Reviews

MENTAL DIVERSION EXPERT! I would highly recommend Mrs. Debra Rice as she went above and beyond for my brothers court case. She did exactly what she said she would do and then some. The odds were not in his favor and we got far better odds than expected, as we already suspected the charges were not going to be dropped regardless of the lack of evidence the state had against him (Unfortunately, an officers word against yours is enough to seal the deal in a case now and days). Fortunately,she is a realist and will tell you each of the possibilities you can go with your case, then tell you which route will give you the best odds, within reason. Do not be mistaken though because she will go the toughest route possible if you are willing to, as she did with my brother. She was/is available throughout the entire case and was at no point unreachable, as she would always pick-up, email, text, or meet up. She gave great expert referrals that we needed for our particular case and further provided us with all the resources necessary to increase the odds of a great outcome. Her fees are beyond reasonable for the amount of traveling and time she had dedicated to our case, you will not find another attorney that will do it with a reasonable charge and have the same, if not better outcome. Furthermore, she was not just an attorney but an actual human being that treated us with dignity, respect, and never once made us feel uncomfortable. We could not have found a better attorney, I can not stress this enough! Other attorney's did not want to take the case as they said "it is too complicated, complex and a sealed deal", Mrs. Debra Rice proved them all wrong with the outcome however proved them all right the complexity of the case. We are extremely satisfied with the outcome of our case. We can not thank her enough for the second chance she has given my brother.
I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the professionals at Rice and Rice. Eric Rice represented me, and along with his paralegal Erlinda, helped me ensure the safety and wellbeing of my children. From start to finish, Eric was very honest about what I could expect and how things could proceed short and long term. He consistently provided solid advice and helped me every step of the way. I was concerned about some parenting choices my ex-spouse had made without my consent and Eric was able to help put an end to them in a timely fashion. He is very clever and knows the law inside and out to effectively reach his clients’ goals. I would also like to note that Eric has consistently made time to meet with me around my flights and limited time in California before needing to appear for court. He has made a point to meet me at his office shortly after I have landed, even if it was outside his usual hours or he was ill on one occasion. He has put my needs as a client above his own to ensure my case was on the right track and I was adequately prepared. Eric is a firm but respectful presence in court and did not back down when addressing the serious concerns of my case. Thanks to Eric, my children are no longer exposed to the concerning circumstances that prompted my case and they now have a better quality of life.
Eric was very direct, honest and trustworthy throughout my legal separation process, and also was a direct referral from a friend who has followed his progress working with many clients hell and clientele throughout the years! You will like him!
Eric Rice from start to finish was professional, to the point, and well organized. What should have been a simple divorce was drug out into two separate hearings one where the opposing side trying to sue for back alimony and clearly had no case. Thankfully Eric's knowledge of case law showed in his confidence during the hearing. His smile put me at ease during the hearing, shortly after he and opposing counsel were in chambers the case was dropped. This was a refreshing win in my favor. The second hearing should have been quick and easy, but once again the ex had an agenda. Eric Rice took it in stride not allowing my ex to have any upper hand. The ex's attempts to further delay the judgement finally came to an end. Eric's knowledgeable staff worked on preparing the status only judgement divorce paperwork over a few months thereafter. If you are looking for an attorney who speaks with confidence, actively listens, knowledgeable in family law, with friendly and helpful staff, I highly recommend Eric Rice hands down.
Eric has been a pleasure to work with. We had a tough case and he did his due diligence to make sure he was well prepared for our case. He understood the importance of what was at stake, and had compassion for our situation. He has a passion for the law which shows through his research and effort. We greatly appreciate him and his firm. I am glad that out of all of the lawyers in the area, Eric was the one we chose. Thank you for everything!
