Hughes & Sullivan

Richard P. Sullivan is the devil. He has recently been reprimanded by several judges and attornies for destorying\r the lives of children and parents. This guy will go to every\r length to steal your money and cares nothing about your family. He truely is the DEVIL. The entire law firm is corrupt - DON""T HIRE THIS FIRM. Karen Huges is just as bad. BEWARE Richard P. Sullivan is the devil. UPDATE Richard P. Sullivan is currently working @ Jarvis, Krieger and Sullivan. BEWARE it is the same man that ruined many lives in California\r more

The old saying don't believe everything you hear rings true... I don't know how connected you were as a client but, I believe Mr. Sullivan has no daughters. I personally had a terrific outcome with Mr. Sullivan representing me in my child support case and felt he was completed involved, incredibly knowledgeable and most importantly prepared. My results were nothing short of what I had expected. more

These people are theives! My $10,000.00 retainer lasted a month, before I recieved a bill for another $5,000. then two more for $10,000.00. When it was finally time to go to court, Mr. Sullivan did not even try to work my case. I wanted to bring witnesses, and I was told not to ( I didn't need them) I wanted to have my ex sit for a depo, but I was told there was no need. Well his attorney had me sit for on. One that Richard was 30 mins. late for. I was never preped for my depo, nor for court. Richard refused to offer evidence. I knew going in that my case was going to be difficult, but I didn't realize that he would refuse to even try it. Oh and then after all this, I called the office, because I had a question, and his daughter Screamed at me. When I asked her why she was screaming at me, she refused to respond, and hung up on me. I could understand, if I was screaming at her, but I only asked a question about child support, and she started screaming at me. Stay far far away from these people. Do not give them your hard earned money. THEY WILL STEAL ALL YOUR MONEY AND NOT DO ANYTHING TO HELP YOU. \r \r PRETTY FUNNY HOW TWO OF THEIR THREE 5 STAR REVIEWS WERE POSTED ON THE SAME DAY. GOOD WEEK? OR HIS STAFF TRYING TO SAVE FACE? more

After having had bad experiences with prior representation on both my husband's and my own prior divorces, we breathed a huge sigh of relief when we found Lisa and Bruce Hughes to help us repair the poorly handled settlements we were stuck with. Lisa and Bruce are consummate professionals who left no stone unturned. They expertly researched and renegotiated all of the elements of our case and were able to turn our situations from failures into triumphs! They changed our life, as well as that of our children. We are so thankful for their expertise as well as that of their extremely qualified staff of associates. They were a pleasure to work with. more

I retained Hughes and Sullivan for a complex child support matter. From the moment I met Mr. Sullivan, I knew I had found the right attorney. Mr. Sullivan and his very competent legal staff thoroughly researched the facts and quickly got to the heart of the matter. Mr. Sullivan helped me to understand the options I faced and worked diligently to reach an amicable resolution. Commissioner Posey actually complemented my attorney in open court for the excellent and expeditious work done on my case. Mr. Sullivan's reputation for being a ""custody guru"" in the Orange County courts proved to be true. I was not only impressed by Mr. Sullivan's keen perception and broad knowledge of the law, but appreciated his honest advice and patience in handling this emotional matter. Thank you Mr. Sullivan, you were worth every penny! more

I have had Mr. Sullivan represent me in the past & He has done an outstanding job for me. He has never been reprimanded by the judge. His fees have always been reasonable & fair. I even got custody of my son. Thank you Mr. Sullivan more

Do not retain this law firm! You will be extremely disatisfied. During our consultation with Lisa Hughes she talked a good talk, we paid the retainer fee and then thats where it will end. We were told that Teresa McNamara and Lori Kennedy would be on our ""team"" and we could call them with questions. However they were never available, though we were still charged for leaving a message and when she did not call back we would call again and leave a message and charged again. Teresa made us feel we were stupid and bother her. We would never know whether to show up in court or not, we would be told one thing and then another whether to go or not to go. On the day of the final court Richard Sullivan showed us we were handed papers from the opposing attorney told us to read it. When we had questions Richard was not around but another person from the law firm that we had never met and we tried to ask questions however that person did not know how to answer them. Richard did not advice us on what we should do. We regretfully signed the paperwork. We feel this law firm is nothing but sales people who really don't care about your situation. Advice to the law to firm, we are real people with real issues and in most cases involve a child. We know you do not have anything vested with us or the child but we trusted you with an issue that is important to us. YOU FAILED! For whoever is reading this, DO NOT RETAIN THIS LAW FIRM! They will only take your money and not do anything for you. more

This firm is a bunch of CROOKS!!!!! They over charge and will settle for half. They think everyone is stupid. Also, if you dont opay 100% of these BOGUS charges the will suck up your retainer and drop you as a client. Not to mention they dont help in court. They do not have your best interestt STAY AWAY!!!!!! more

Hughes and Sullivan,,,They charge astronomical fees...drags things out...and then when you can't pay anymore...they dump you!!!! No compassion, no mercy...they are snakes!!! My husband got what he deserved...he paid them an astromical retainer....and went through that very quickly!!! They did NOTHING for him....but they sure charged him alot. When you climb in bed with the devil, you get what you deserve!!! Besides my evil husband, Mr Sullivan is about the lowest scum, unethical, arrogant, man I have come across. I feel sorry for his wife...or maybe she holds the same morals? I don't know....but if you want to get screwed, higher the law offices of Hughes and Sullivan!!! Pros: non!!!!! I would put negative stars if I could Cons: They lure you in,,,,and then take all your money!!!! more
