I wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone seeking reliable and compassionate legal representation."

"I cannot express enough gratitude for the exceptional legal representation provided by attorney Richard Lougee. He was the best trial attorney I have ever worked with, reciting law by memory when the prosecutor was fumbling to look it up on her computer. His knowledge and experience made the prosecutor nervous. I was falsely accused of a hideous crime and faced a potential 30-year prison sentence. From the very beginning, Mr. Lougee's dedication and unwavering commitment to my case were apparent. Not only did he provide me with unparalleled legal assistance, but his compassion and support throughout the process were truly remarkable. Despite being treated poorly by child protective services and the prosecutor, Mr. Lougee always treated me with dignity and respect as a human being. When the prosecutor offered a plea deal, most attorneys would have jumped at the opportunity. However, Mr. Lougee believed that we had a strong case and that we should take it to trial. Even though he could not guarantee a favorable outcome, I knew that he was in my corner and believed in me. After a lengthy process and rejecting several offers, the prosecutors finally dismissed the case. I cannot emphasize enough how crucial Mr. Lougee's expertise, dedication, and unwavering support were in achieving this outcome. If you find yourself in a similar situation where your life is on the line, I wholeheartedly recommend attorney Richard Lougee. He is not only an exceptional legal advocate but also a compassionate and understanding human being who will fight tirelessly for your rights."

"From the first call, It was Rick who answered! Not a secretary or someone who works for him. He wasted no time in my matter and made me feel important and as if i was his top priority! Rick made time to meet with me the very next day at my earliest convenience and put me at ease and explained how we could move forward in a critical situation. Every call, every question he always would answer! Rick is genuine and he CARES! Everything he does and who he works with is top notch! There is no need to look any further, Your in Great hands with Rick Lougee. Don't take my word for it have one sit down meeting with him then you will understand. Experienced, Professional, Intelligent and honest!"

"We had to run a case by Rick Lougee, the call was answered within 30 minutes on a Saturday evening (!)(was not answered by an answering service but by Rick himself), he immediately followed up on a Sunday, and a zoom meeting was organized the following day. Rick immediately brought in another senior level attorney - they both reviewed our situation. He assembled a team in less than a day over the week-end!!! Very professional, as a matter of a fact, we could immediately tell they both had years of experience. None of the sell pitch, very much focused on asking questions about case specifics following by deep analysis and discussion of strategies. If your life is on the line, Rick Lougee is a real deal! Worth every single penny. He has 40+ years of experience being a prosecutor, public defender, and an attorney in private practice. He has tried at least 200 felony jury trials in both state and federal courts and has a very high record of acquittals. Check out his awards, a recent one (A RECIPIENT OF ARIZONA STATE BAR 2020 TOM KARAS CRIMINAL JUSTICE AWARD) summarizes it all. Very highly recommend. Don't be spooked by a low number of reviews he has, many of his clients do not necessarily want to discuss serious sex and criminal matters on internet with their name being exposed to the world."

"I am a former criminal defense attorney, and have known Rick Lougee since 1989, when we worked at the Public Defender's office. Rick arrived as a senior lawyer from New Mexico with considerable experience. He dedicated himself not only to ethical and effective lawyering but also to training junior lawyers. Having had only a few years experience at that point, I took advantage of his offer of mentorship and sought his advice, watched him in trial, with clients, and observed firsthand how he worked up cases. That learning experience became an invaluable foundation for me and several lucky junior lawyers. I became Rick's colleague and later a friend. I can say, unequivocally, that Rick is a true advocate who works tirelessly for his clients to provide ethical, effective and dedicated representation."
