Worked with Ron Bruce and associates and they are very pleasant and professional. They are prompt and was willing to answer all my questions as well as get the process taken care of in a timely manner. Will definitely use their services again if needed. By far the best retainer fees compared to other firms and will work out a payment plan as well if needed. Thank you for you're service.

I am very happy with the child support order Mr Bruce secured on my case. I am self employed and he did a great job demonstrating to the friend of the court my actual income. They wanted to change me a much higher rate. Bruce did a great job.

I want to recommend Ronald Bruce for family law cases. I hired him for my custody case. There was a PPO filed against me fraudulently. Bruce challenged the PPO and the judge threw it out. I appreciated his hard work.
