The Best
 -- May 2010 --
Stephanie Rickard is the best criminal attorney in Santa Clara County.
Stephanie represented me in four felony cases; she is professional, honest, and very thorough. I would not use anyone but Stephanie.
Stephanie was highly recommended to me and I highly recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney.

DUI with Injuries

 -- May 2010 --
My son was foolish and drove while under the influence and hit a car. We hired a different lawyer first and this was a disaster. Stephanie took over the case and got the best result possible in a fast and professional manner. Very happy we found her and for the results she produced.

Talented Criminal Attorney
 -- April 2010 --
I was a client approx 3 months ago. I am a retired attorney and know the qualities of an outstanding criminal law attorney - intelligence, a keen ability to apply the facts to the law, a special insight into human nature, and far reaching contacts in the legal field. In my situation, Ms. Rickard fulfilled all of the above criteria and then some. Also, her fees are very reasonable and she returns phone calls promptly.

DUI hit and run
 -- December 2009 --
My son made a bad situation worse by giving false information to law enforcement that actually made charges worse than if he told the truth not because he was charged with lying but because he couldn't take back the lie.
Stephanie was able to get the charges reduced to reckless driving with alcohol involved which was probably the best that could be done, and she did it fairly quickly.

Excellent attorney
 -- December 2009 --
My wife was involved in an accident whereby she lost control of her vehicle and hit a street tree and sign. Given hers was the only vehicle and no other persons were involved, she didn't know what to do. Given she was upset, but not injured, she decided to drive home. Because there was property damage, and she left the scene without putting a note on the tree, the police charged her with misdemeanor hit-and-run. We engaged Stephanie to represent her, and she successfully got the charge reduced to an infraction, failure to exchange information. We were very well satisfied with Stephanie's services, professionalism, and ability to help us put this behind us.

Highly knowledgeable and experienced in her practice
 -- July 2009 --
I initially hired Stephanie for a case 7 months ago and came back to her for another case. I was extremeley pleased with the first result and knew that she could do the same for my second case. I've been more than satisfied with Stephanie's representation in both cases and would recommend her to anyone.

A Compassionate Defense Attorney
 -- March 2008 --
Stephanie Rickard shows a true interest in her client's well-being and legal rights. I have had other attorneys defend me, but none of them came close to her level of combined professionalism, attention to detail and confidence-building trust. I highly recommend her to anyone who needs a strong advocate in court.
