I was in the worst situation a new father could find themselves in. I missed the birth of my newborn daughter and hadn’t seen her in 4 months. I tried to represent myself but soon realized I was in over my head. I reached out to the Law Office of Derek S. Ritchie, and it was the best decision I ever made. The entire staff were professional, compassionate, and caring. Mr. Ritchie heard my story, really heard it, and from that moment, he and the firm advocated tirelessly on my behalf. The results were better than I could have ever hoped for. It only took Mr. Ritchie one court hearing to unite me with my 4 month old daughter. On our first weekend together, Mr. Ritchie even called me to see how we were doing. I would recommend this law office to anyone in need of a family law attorney.The main issue I found with this law office is poor communication with a paralegal who was assigned to my case. They would often not answer my calls or return my messages.
