About Rice Law

Annapolis Attorneys Dedicated to Your Best Interests

At Rice Law, our team works tirelessly to provide clients with everything they need for any family law matter. Two of our Annapolis lawyers are litigators by trade (both former prosecutors) and one is a former Court of Appeals Law Clerk. Combined, we offer over 45 years of litigation experience. We are smart, hard-working, and dedicated to our clients, and our work ethic is unmatched. More importantly, we have compassion and empathy for our clients, who are experiencing one of the most difficult times in their lives. Our team is very well-known and respected, especially in Anne Arundel County. Over several years of practicing in and around Anne Arundel County, we have built positive relationships with court staff, judges, and local attorneys.

How We Prepare Ourselves & Our Clients

When we take on a new case, we spend a great deal of time talking with our client, listening to their goals, advising them about the law, and discussing strategy. We organize the file and all of the evidence, learn the facts inside and out, meet with witnesses, and consult with experts whenever needed. Our office prioritizes meeting with our clients and ensuring that they are always kept fully informed throughout the process, and we discuss the options available to them. We believe strongly that it is much better for a client to have a say in the final outcome than to leave the decisions up to a judge. However, if it does not seem like a settlement will be possible, we are prepared to take a case to trial and fight it ferociously.

The Role We Play in Clients’ Lives

We believe that our primary function is to advocate for our clients’ best interests. We spend much of our time counseling our clients through the emotional turmoil they experience as a result of their case. At Rice Law, we do our best to educate our clients on the law and help them to understand the likely outcomes based on their unique situations. As skilled attorneys, we are committed to providing clients with a balance of empathy and straightforwardness. Our goal is always to solve problems, not create new ones, and we want our clients to feel better and more confident when they leave our office.
