Rich Muth is widely considered by many of his peers and certainly is loyal clients to be the finest lawyer in Chester County. He has been our family lawyer for over 15 years and like wise I have used him numerous times over the years for my business needs. Always with satisfactory results. I have recommended him to countless clients and friends over the years for both criminal and civil cases. Without exception each person thanks me for the referral and all feel that they just haven't got a good lawyer. But feel they have a new and trusted friend.

unfortunately i got a DUI. i started working w a different local attorney but was not satisfied. a good friend of mine recommended rich, he had gotten another friend of hers out of some very serious trouble. night and day difference. rich knows EVERYONE. it's kind of amazing. he has the smoothest demeanor and a sincerity that just gets things done. he knew the state trooper. he knew the assistant DA. rich is also able to speed up or slow down the process, whichever might be called for. of course no attorneys come cheap, but rich's prices are not outrageous. he also doesn't overbill on hours or gouge you. he's also not a guy who judges you, he helps fix the situation you are in without making you feel any worse about it. i have also had rich help me with various non criminal legal issues as well, i think he's great in general all around. to summarize, rich gets things done. he is a FIXER. everyone knows and likes him, he's responsive and great to work with, and he won't overcharge you. i give the absolute highest marks to rich muth and recommend him without hesitation.

I retained Mr. Muth to represent me in a case concerning PENDOT and a potential license suspension. I had tried to go through the process myself and had not completed what I needed and missed critical timeframes. Mr. Muth explained the different options I had available in detail and offered his suggestion, which I took. I was kept very well informed and felt thoroughly represented. Mr. Muth has been in the area and not only knew every process very well, he was also very familiar with the other people involved. He is very well respected and has earned my respect as well. My outcome was positive which was an added bonus. I hope myself, or anyone I know, never needs an attorney but if the need is there I will certainly be reaching out to him and his firm.
