Nancy Mclouth testimonial

I hired the law firm of Richard Ross Associates in April 2001 to help me retain custody of my teenage son, and prevent him from being returned to his father in the State of Florida. I feared for the safety of my child if he was returned to his father. My situation involved an extremely complicated interstate jurisdictional custody dispute controlled by a body of law known as the Uniform Child Custody Jurisdictional Enforcement Act (UCCJEA). Acting on my behalf, Richard Ross Associates had to wrest control by another state over the issue of custody and support, while the other parent was still residing in that state and had retained sole legal and physical custody of the minor child for a number of years. UCCJEA case law was not favorable to my case.

Despite many obstacles along the way, this firm stuck with my case even when at times due to my frustration, I wanted to give up on it. They took a case where there was no way of anticipating the outcome, due to the complex legal issues involved and absence of favorable case law, and persevered until they got the job done. This was despite having to deal with a client who was at times difficult and emotional... Richard Ross Associates restored my faith in the kindness of human nature, and they kept on going whereas other firms might have given up. They have given me the one thing I wanted and had been too afraid to fight for over many years and that was, custody of my son. The case was completed within seven months, a record time, considering they had to deal with two states and two court systems. I highly recommend Richard Ross Associates to get the job done...
