Testimonials

Phil and Ashleigh were fantastic to work with, very friendly and responsive. I would highly recommend Rice Law for any legal needs. I will be sticking with them for anything I may require in the future.

Mr. Bonamo and Ashleigh made my divorce quick and effortless!
I cannot say enough good things about Mr. Bonamo and his amazing paralegal Ashleigh. From our very first meeting, they made a very difficult process feel manageable and stress-free.
They handled everything with professionalism, clear communication, and incredible efficiency. What I thought would be a long, painful ordeal was wrapped up quickly and smoothly thanks to their expertise and hard work.

Ashleigh was always responsive and kind – she made sure I understood every step and never felt lost. Mr. Bonamo fought for what mattered most to me while keeping things practical and cost-effective.

If you need a family law attorney who truly cares and gets results, look no further. I’m so grateful to both of them!
Highly recommend!

My sister and I recently had the opportunity to work with Rice Law Firm in Daytona Beach, Florida, on an estate matter. The firm was referred to us by another attorney assisting with my loved one’s estate. Our entire experience was excellent. The individual who took our first call was professional, welcoming, and helpful. She answered general questions and quickly connected us with a paralegal who provided additional guidance and helped confirm that the firm was the right fit for our needs. We were able to schedule a free consultation with Attorney Shapiro within just a few days. He was punctual, professional, friendly, and very patient with our questions. He clearly explained the services, costs, and timeline–all of which were very reasonable. He encouraged us to use the full consultation time, with no pressure to proceed!

We initially paid the retainer but due to a change in our family’s asset situation, we no longer needed the full scope of services. The firm was understanding and immediately began the process to issue a refund for the unused portion without any difficulty stating, “We’re here to help you.”

We were very pleased with the professionalism, responsiveness, and integrity of Rice Law Firm. They helped make a difficult and emotional estate process far less stressful, and I would highly recommend them for estate-related legal needs. Thank you Lauren, Karen, and Attorney Shapiro!

I cannot recommend Serena Baldacchino highly enough. My case was an extremely high-conflict, prolonged family law matter that was emotionally exhausting, but from beginning to end, she remained dedicated and professional.
She consistently communicated, kept me informed and made sure I always understood my options. Even when the case became challenging and dragged on longer than anticipated, she never lost focus or stopped fighting for me. Thanks to her expertise, the final outcome was exactly what I had hoped for.

If you’re looking for a family law attorney who is compassionate, highly skilled, responsive, and willing to stand by you through even the most difficult, high-conflict case, I wholeheartedly recommend her. I am forever grateful.

We have utilized the services of Rice Law several times in the past. Attorney Philip Bonamo recently helped me a charge that I was falsely accused of and he had it dropped in less than 10 days. AMAZING!!!
Ashleigh Drexler was very personable and helpful throughout the situation. I really cannot say enough about the team at Rice Law.
I have utilized Attorney Matt Shapiro in the past for my will and trust. I was very pleased with the care I received every time I needed Rice Law. It is money well spent.

I am so thankful to have worked with Ms. Baldacchino and her team at Rice Law Firm while going through a divorce and dealing with an injunction case simultaneously. This has easily been the most trying and difficult time in my life and I felt so supported by Ms. Baldacchino throughout the whole process. She is sharp, intelligent, responsive, driven and matter of fact, which are great attributes you want in an attorney, but she is also patient, compassionate, supportive, empathetic, encouraging and motivating at the same time. She strikes the right blend of hand holding and calling you out if/when needed and managing expectations. I have nothing but the utmost respect for her and her team. Everybody I interacted with at the firm has been amazing and I appreciate them all. I cannot recommend them enough!

I had the pleasure of working with Philip and Ashleigh in a time of uncertainty and I’m more than grateful with their hard work would recommend them to anyone and everyone who needs legal assistance!

Paul and his wonderful staff just completed my complicated divorce. I always felt supported and It is with a heartfelt thanks to the time and dedication by everyone involved that I can now move on!

Mr. Bonamo and his team were extremely helpful and patient during a difficult period. Very satisfied with their service and would recommend this firm for anyone with family law needs.

Phil and Ashleigh were amazing. If you want the best representation, it’s them and their firm. They answered every phone call and email I ever had. Morning, day or night. Answered every question. But most importantly, they helped me through the hardest time of my life. I didn’t just come out of my situation okay. I came out on top! Don’t hesitate when choosing who to go with around here. They are the best of the best.

We had an excellent experience having Matthew Shapiro prepare various estate planning documents. It was a somewhat complex estate plan that included provisions for heirs living abroad. Mr. Shapiro really impressed us with his professionalism, depth and breadth of knowledge, and his commitment to ensuring that every detail was handled correctly. We were completely ignorant concerning all of the considerations involved, but Mr. Shapiro was patient and explained everything in detail. He made sure we fully understood the legal and practical implications of each decision. Also, Mr. Shapiro is highly personable and approachable – he is just a really nice guy. He made the whole process much less stressful and walked out of his office feeling peace of mind. His assistants, Lauren and Karen were also very helpful and professional.
In short, I highly recommend Matthew Shapiro and the Rice Law Firm. I would not hesitate to work with him again and have already recommended him to friends.

Mr. Phil Bonamo is an outstanding and practical, no nonsense defense attorney. He and his staff were very knowledgeable of the law, quick to respond, and strong advocates for our son.

Since I am also a lawyer who has practiced for over 60 years, I know when an advocate is knowledgeable, prepared, practical, and dedicated. Mr. Bonamo is all of those things. I highly recommend him and his firm for criminal defense work.
