Attorney Richard Shum assisted my family and I with a very difficult landlord. At a time of a lot of concern and uncertainty, Mr. Shum was there for us every inch of the way, his confidence and vast knowledge of the law, together with his passion for it and for helping people, provided us the serenity to go on about our life, while he took care of they daunting matter. At the end we reached an agreement only Atterney Shum could achieve. Since I recommended his service to any friends that is in need of help with legal matters, from Landlord/Tenant to family court, and in every case I receive a thank you call from said friends, following the successful outcome he provided. So, as I say to my friends, if you need an Attorney that will fight for you, and not stress you out, call this guy. you will thank me.

I cannot recommend Richard Shum enough. He is a rare breed of divorce lawyer/family lawyer and quite frankly, of human being, who will fight like a bulldog on the issues you need him to, will keep an eye on time/money so as to not completely drain your resources, and he also has a moral compass and keeps what is best for the whole family, i.e. the children/or the big picture in mind in all his proceedings. He actually cares about what he does, how he handles himself, and what is best for his clients and I recommend him to everyone I know facing legal battles in terms of custody and child support. Every single member of my family is lucky we had him in our corner when we needed to figure everything out. Again, cannot recommend this lawyer enough

“Excellent divorce lawyer,” “family lawyer,” “child support,” and “custody.” When you are in financial distress and physical pain it is difficult to think clearly and make good decisions. That, in addition to not understanding a legal process complicates matters even more. Mr. Shum explained the law, outlined in clear language the steps in the process that where needed to be done. He was reassuring, articulate, knowable and effective. Mr. Shum made the process so much easier and gave me peace of mind in a stressful but successful outcome. Mr. Shum was selected on recommendation from a trusted friend and was some of the "Best" advice I have ever received. -María

Mr. Shum tells it like it is and there's no denying his ability to handle a courtroom and push a case forward. He exudes a tough, take-no-sh*t attitude that I needed to deal with an unreliable ex that was willing to lie in court to get her way. Mr. Shum is kind and tough and most importantly, knowledgeable. Navigating NYC court system is daunting and it’s never a pleasant experience but Richard did all the leg work and took much of the stress out of my hands, like a proper divorce lawyer should. Thanks again Richard. My new life begins.

If you need a top-notch family lawyer look no further than Richard Roman Shum. He is exactly who you want in your corner when you are trying to navigate a contentious divorce, especially when it involves a custody battle. He works tirelessly on your behalf when it comes to division of assets, child support, and all other obstacles that can arise during a devastating family split. He is a powerful ally in and out of the courtroom, and the most diligent and tenacious divorce lawyer I have ever met.

I 100% recommend. Mr.Shum is very thorough, passionate & supportive. He wasn’t just the best family lawyer that I could ask for, he also became family. When it all began I was very down & hopeless. Mr. Shum helped me see the light as we worked on my custody dispute. He helped me see clearly that I deserved this and had all that it takes and more! He’s absolutely the person that everyone would want to work with! I love my daughter more than anything in the world and Mr.Shum came through for us.

Richard Shum is as good as they come. Specializing as a divorce lawyer in matters of custody, child support, and other areas of family law, I highly recommend Richard as a family lawyer. He has also been helpful to me in commercial business matters as well. A lovely jack of all trades with a great sense of justice. Wonderful!!

Not only a fantastic divorce lawyer (my license plate is now "WAS HIS"), great at child support and custody too. Richard worked really hard to find short term solutions that built the foundation for a solid long-term plan, so we didn't have to address the same issues repeatedly. Fair, compassionate, and reasonable rates.

I had a consultation with Richard Shum and he was very knowledgeable about my family court issue. He took time to listen to and answer all of my questions. He was honest about any possible outcomes, and I very much appreciate that. If I decide to hire council, he will definitely be at the top of the list.

Dear Rich I had a consultation with you today and you prevented me from making a major mistake , No other lawyer in NYC did that ,You took the time to explain my legal circumstances and what options were available to me . I look forward to working with you soon . Sincerely Richard Kelly

Richard was extremely competent and used his extensive experience to help me think through difficult issues both from a financial and a legal perspective with a focus on making sure that I would be happy with the outcome in the long-run. I will definitely recommend Richard to friends!

We had a great conversation that opened my eyes to other legal remedies other than using the adversarial angle of the family court system. Not everything has to be a fight in court if both parties can get along and are mature about their situation.
