Origin and Background

Scott B. Richman founded Richman Law Firm PLLC and operates it as Managing Member, personally overseeing “the litigation of the most complex legal matters across a vast array of practice areas,” per the firm’s own site. The Manhattan office on Third Avenue was confirmed against multiple independent business listings, alongside a second office in White Plains.

What Makes This Firm Structurally Different

Richman Law Firm is not a business-litigation-exclusive boutique; it is a general civil litigation practice spanning commercial disputes, personal injury, real estate litigation, construction law, and class actions. Richman’s own background combines corporate law advisory work with courtroom litigation experience, which the firm positions as giving business clients both preventive counsel and trial-ready representation from the same attorney.

Practice Areas

• Business and commercial litigation
• Contract and partnership disputes
• Corporate conflict litigation
• Construction law
• Real estate litigation
• Class actions

Track Record

Awesome Attorneys did not identify a published, itemized table of verdicts or settlements on the firm’s site; the firm’s own site states Richman has “successfully argued complex commercial disputes and won considerable settlements for his clients” without itemizing specific figures. Past results in any matter do not guarantee or predict a similar outcome in any future matter.

Client Voice

The firm’s own site features attributed client testimonials. One client called Richman “hands down the best attorney we have ever had,” crediting him with solving “a tricky and challenging problem with speed, efficiency and professionalism.” Another described him as “communicative, diligent, and reliable” and said he “went above and beyond.” Awesome Attorneys did not identify negative reviews for this firm as of the research date.

Beyond the Courtroom

Awesome Attorneys did not identify specific published community or pro bono activity for this firm as of the research date.

Recognition

Awesome Attorneys did not identify a Chambers USA, Martindale-Hubbell, or Super Lawyers ranking for this firm on the pages reviewed. New York does not maintain a board-certification system for business litigation comparable to Texas’s TBLS, so Awesome Attorneys does not apply “specialist” language to any New York business litigation attorney on that basis.

New York Legal Backdrop

Commercial contract disputes in New York generally carry a six-year statute of limitations under CPLR § 213(2). Business disputes involving corporate governance, such as disputes between partners or between management and shareholders, may also implicate New York’s Business Corporation Law or Limited Liability Company Law depending on the entity’s structure. None of this is legal advice; a specific commercial dispute should be evaluated by a licensed New York attorney based on the actual facts involved.

Awesome Attorneys Assessment

Richman Law Firm’s clearest differentiator is a founder who combines corporate advisory experience with hands-on trial work, backed by positive, specific client testimonials on the firm’s own site. The honest trade-off is that the firm’s practice spans several areas beyond business litigation, including personal injury and class actions, rather than specializing exclusively in commercial disputes, and Awesome Attorneys could not locate an independent, itemized outcomes record or third-party peer rating to weigh against the firm’s own description. For a business client who wants an attorney combining preventive corporate counsel with genuine litigation experience, that combination is a reasonable basis for a shortlist.
