The testimonials from clients reflect Ritchie’s commitment to helping his clients. For example, one client praised Ritchie, saying, “I called Brandon after I was rear-ended and sandwiched in a collision. My car was totaled on a holiday weekend, but he took my call and started the process for me right away. It was so awesome having someone who had my back to help me walk through everything with the insurance claim – because I promise you, I would have no idea what to do on my own. Brandon and his team answered every question and followed up with me through the whole process.”

The Ritchie Reiersen team provides assistance with deportation and removal proceedings, as well as defense and asylum protection.

One of Ritchie Reiersen’s clients succinctly described his law practice’s services: “Multiple family friends have gone through their immigration department services, and several of them have already resolved their concerns, including receiving their permanent resident’s card. The first consultation is free, and in that consultation, any doubt is resolved, and a fair quote is given from the beginning. I would highly recommend this firm.”
