We have utilized Drew Richards on two occasions, and on both, he was always professional, extremely reliable, and on both, he came through for us! Besides being a competent Attorney, Drew is simply a nice guy. I'd have no problem recommending him to any of my friends, should they ever need legal representation.

Drew Richards has helped me several times over the past several years on real estate transaction situations and always to my complete satisfaction. We also hired Copeland Richards to handle some HOA issues which were taken care of immediately. I am always impressed with the timely replies I have received from Drew. Such great service!!
