Because of his many years of experience in courtrooms across the USA, Richard LiPuma is a very efficient lawyer. In cases where attorney fees and costs are requested, Richard LiPuma’s fees have NEVER exceeded the fees charged by opponents for handling the same case. In fact, his fees typically are shown to be only ⅓ – ½ of the fees charged by opponents. Although his overall fees are routinely less than the fees charged by opponents, his work typically is far superior. Mr. LiPuma is proud of the fact that, on many occasions, he has been approached by an opposing party after a trial, expressing regret, and acknowledging that Mr. LiPuma out-lawyered his opponent at every level. Often times, Mr. LiPuma’s opponents later become his clients.
