Services Offered in Riverton

Riverton sits between Herriman and South Jordan but has been here longer than either of them in their present form, and the mix shows it. Larger lots, longer-established families, and a quieter set of legal problems: divorce and custody, wills and trusts, the occasional citation. Ordinary life rather than anything dramatic.

Why Riverton Chooses Richards & Richards

Choosing a firm is mostly about what happens after you sign. Here is what we hold ourselves to.

1

You Get a Plan Before You Pay a Retainer

The consultation ends with a plain-English summary of where you stand, what we would do about it, and what that costs. You decide afterwards, not before.

2

One Attorney, One Point of Contact

The attorney on your case handles your case. You are not shuffled between five lawyers or handed to a paralegal who cannot make decisions. When you call, you reach the person who knows your file.

3

We Come to You

Virtual and in-home consultations are routine here. If getting to the Ogden office is hard, because of distance, mobility, or a spouse who cannot travel, we come to you instead.

4

We Are Transparent About Costs

You get the fee arrangement in writing before any work starts: a flat fee where the work allows one, an hourly rate against a written estimate where it does not. Either way you see the number first, and there are no surprise invoices.

5

Clear Communication, Always

We answer calls and emails within 24 business hours. When something significant happens on your case, you hear it from a person, not a form letter. We explain what it means and what happens next.

6

A Family Firm Since 1988

Two generations of Ogden-raised attorneys. We are invested in this community, and we built this firm on the principle that you are not just a case number.

Ready to talk it through? A one-hour consultation is $100, credited to your retainer if we take your case.

A divorce is never a comfortable situation, but with Jaime as my attorney it was less stressful and easy to understand. I got everything finalized without a hassle. I highly recommend this firm to anyone dealing with a divorce or custody situation.

I hired Jaime in a child custody case. From our first meeting to mediation he answered every question without judgment and let me know exactly what to expect. I couldn't be more pleased about the outcome. He genuinely cares and wants to help.

★★★★★
I cannot say enough good things about Kevin and his team. Going through a high-conflict divorce and custody case has been one of the most stressful and emotionally draining experiences of my life, and Kevin has been a steady source of guidance, support, and reassurance throughout the entire process. From the very beginning, Kevin took the time to explain every step of the process, answer my questions, and help me understand what to expect. When I felt overwhelmed, anxious, or uncertain, he helped keep me grounded and focused on the bigger picture. His calm and confident approach gave me peace of mind during some of the most difficult moments of my case…

★★★★★
Kevin Richards has represented me for several years through multiple complex cases, including an ex parte TRO, a custody modification, and a DCFS case. These situations were extremely stressful and involved my children, and having Kevin in my corner made all the difference. He is knowledgeable, strategic, and a strong advocate for his clients. He takes the time to understand the details of your case and makes sure you understand your options. His experience with family law and DCFS matters was invaluable…

★★★★★
When I immigrated from Germany, we chose Richards & Richards to guide us through the entire process. Kevin was knowledgeable, patient, and clear about every step. Maria greeted us with a smile every time. They handled everything through my green card and naturalization to citizenship.

★★★★★
Jaime helped me with my trust, medical directive and power of attorney. It was easy, quick and thorough. I had a good experience. I had put it off for far too long, thinking it would be difficult. I should have done it sooner. Peace of mind is a good thing.

★★★★★
Jaime wrote two wills for us, one a special needs will, tailored precisely to our needs. The work was excellent, and Jaime was extremely courteous, personable, and professional. He made the effort to come to us when we could not come to him.

★★★★★
What a breath of fresh air! I came from another firm and wasn't happy. Jaime was amazing and more than willing to explain every detail. Everyone in the office was professional, caring and amazing.

Questions From Riverton? We Have Answers.

Short answers to what people in Riverton actually ask before they call.

How long will my case take?
It depends on the case. An uncontested divorce or a straightforward will moves in weeks. A custody dispute runs months. You get a range, not a sales number.
Do you serve areas outside Riverton?
Yes. We take cases from every city in Salt Lake County and from eight other counties across northern Utah. Being outside city limits changes nothing about whether we can help.
How much will it cost?
A consultation is $100 for a full hour, credited to your retainer if we take the case. After that it is a flat fee where the work allows one and an hourly rate against a written estimate where it does not. You see the number before any work starts.
Which court will my case be heard in?
The 3rd District, at the West Jordan courthouse or the Matheson Courthouse downtown. Riverton is closer to the west-side one, though the courthouse is decided by the case rather than by the drive. We confirm it before filing.
Why do people in Riverton choose Richards & Richards?
Because you get one attorney and a callback inside 24 business hours, which sounds like a small thing until a firm has gone quiet on you. Going quiet is the complaint we hear most about the last lawyer.

General information about Utah law, not legal advice, and reading it does not create an attorney-client relationship. Every case turns on its own facts.

Still have a question about your own situation? That is what the consultation is for. One hour, $100, credited to your retainer if we take your case.
