You couldn't ask for a better attorney!
Joe Riccio is truly the best attorney. He is highly intelligent, knows your case inside and out, will fight for you in court, and cares about you like a family member. I am beyond grateful for Mr. Riccio, and his highly qualified staff. I appreciate his no fluff approach to telling it like it is every step of the way. He doesn’t sugarcoat anything, and he looks out for you, your children, and your financial situation. He is a lawyer who will not take advantage of you. He is a genuine, caring person of integrity. Most importantly, he is a winner, and will fight his hardest for you in court!

The best of the best!!!!!
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Joe was my attorney for around 7-8 months in 2022. While I believe I had a frustrating case, he always made it feel so simple and took the stress off of situations. I know so many people who complain about their attorneys never getting back to them, or never feeling fought for/important. I never ever had that problem. This man and his team will ALWAYS answer the phone or emails. You will never feel left out or confused and if for some reason you do, contact them and they will get whatever your issue is squared away. Joe is honest, cutthroat, and takes pride in knowing dang near every law in the book. He is truly the most knowledgeable attorney I have ever met. If you are looking for someone to sugarcoat or tell you what you want to hear regardless of what is actually possible, then don't bother. He will not waste your money or your time, and whether you like it or not, he knows the best ways to handle situations. He will be honest with you and that, to me, is most important in this type of situation. He got me everything I wanted and more than I ever thought possible. I will forever be grateful for Joe and his team. Anything legal-wise I will need in the future, he is my only option by choice. Don't settle for less. Just hire Riccio. PERIOD!

Looking for a lawyer? Look no further.

Joe & Patricia were rockstars! They were so caring and helpful, which made a very difficult time much more manageable. I can’t thank them enough for all they’ve done for me!!!

Best lawyer around
I needed to find stronger representation with my 4 yr custody battle close to my trial date and Joe Riccio spent hours with me reviewing my case. He and his paralegal Patricia are a class act. They fought for me and were so professional and always available when I needed them most. With their help and expertise I was able to settle prior to trial with a better outcome than I would have received and I owe it all to them. If you need help they are the ones to call!

The best lawyer in town!
I just had to come on here and leave a review after my wonderful experience with Marathon Law Group. Joe Riccio (my attorney) and Patricia Maynor (paralegal) completely exceeded my expectations. They are worth every penny. The saying you get what you pay for goes beyond in this situation. They are are not only the best at what they do but they are companionate and really get to know you and your case. I went in for the termination of parental rights followed by an adoption and the process was the most non stressful having these 2 by my side. I was so nervous about this process but Joe and Patricia took care of EVERYTHING. They never sugar coated anything and told me exactly what to expect both worst case and best case scenarios and assured me that even worst case scenario would turn out fine with them in my corner. They are both professional and caring and I couldn't have asked for a better team to represent me in one of the most important things in my life. Not only did I get the parental rights terminated, we also were able to have my husband adopt my son. All of which was done in a timely manner. If you are looking for the best attorney in town Joe Riccio is your guy.

Number 1
How is thank you enough? Joe and Patricia are without question the BEST I have had the pleasure of working with. We have battled a 7 year custody case and as a long time client I am forever humbled and grateful for this teams attention to detail, transparency and communication, passion, attention to detail, detective skills, presence and knowledge. Thanks to this team we won BOTH cases and justice was served. Hats of to the entire staff at Marathon Law. I would recommend no other. When you have the best, you can forget the rest.

Highly recommend
I've have had another attorney before Marathon, who didn't help me or watch out for me during my divorce. My case was a high conflict case and not to many attorneys wanted to help, even though it was finalized. My ex kept taking me back to court for small things. Finally I found Marathon, Joe and Patricia. Joe is the type of attorney I wish I had from the beginning. He was very straight forward with everything. He told me what I needed to do to be able to win. If I didn't do it he explained everything in detail of what would happen. Joe was everything I needed to get me through and finally finalize my divorce. He was ruthless in all areas. As for Patricia, his paralegal, she was just amazing. She kept me inline of how the information she needed was to be drafted, if it wasn't a certain way she would ask me to redraft. She only did this to help keep the cost down for me. Patricia had become not only someone who helped me with my case but she also became a friend. She helped me keep my cool when things really got tough. If it wasn't for her, I probably would have become a broken person. I highly recommend both of them to anyone.

Best Lawyer
I want to thank Mr. Riccio Joe because he did an excellent representation in my behalf and also the secretaries give fast and great customer service. I truly recommend it. Thank you

Marathon Law Group is a stellar team!
Joe Riccio and his staff have been amazing. They helped me to have a voice in my personal injury case and fought for me to get the treatment I needed to recover. They have also helped me in a family law case. Joe personally ensured my safety during a court visit and refused to allow my abusive ex-husband to have access to me during the court time. For the first time in a very long time I felt safe and heard. Patricia, one of the paralegals, has helped me cope with the stress of my case and I can't thank her enough for her understanding and support. If you need help with family law or personal injury this group will have your back and fight for you!

Best attorney
Joseph Riccio has provided me legal services and guidance on my personal legal matters. Joseph is honest and trustworthy. I highly recommend Joseph Riccio to anyone who needs legal advice or representation.

Excellent Lawyer
Joe and Lauren were so easy to work with and allowed me to focus on healing.

Divorced and Decree Signed by Judge in 20 Days
Joseph and his entire staff are phenomenal!!! Joseph set aside 1 hour of his time at no cost to completely and thougroly explain to me the divorce process and all of my options; with diagrams!! I was so impressed I retained him immediately. My divorce was very unique, in that I filed in another state 15 years ago and after all that time I was ready to marry again. However there was a clerical error on my Decree from the 2004 divorce, the judge never signed it . So I had to go through the process again. Thanks to Joseph and his staff he accomplished in record time a successful divorce with a extremely hostile former wife that also tried to take advantage and extort my assets after 15 years of never speaking to me. THANK YOU JOSEPH AND STAFF!!!!!

The Best of the Best
Joe took on my ex-husband, who happens to be an attorney. He convinced the judge to completely follow all of our requests to the t. Joe is passionate and intelligent and has a fair price. Hire him!

Custody
I am very grateful for having him represent me. He made me feel extremely confident with my case and I would definitely recommend him. Thank you.

Me.
Mr. Riccio and his staff at Vegas West Attorneys always made you feel you were in good hands. You always felt convenient of the outcome of your case. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

Couldn't ask for a better outcome
Joe was straight forward with me and totally transparent. He asked what I wanted as an outcome, and he made exactly that happened. Case dismissed.

Exceeded Every Expectation!!
Words cannot express accurately enough how talented, knowledgeable, forthright, aggressive when needed and engaged Joseph Riccio is as an attorney. He has become pivotal in a 3-year high conflict custody battle previously botched by horrible representation and turned it completely around in under 8 months. Equally as important is Patricia Maynor, his legal assistant who is meticulous in her work, prompt in communication and a pleasure to work with. Joseph has not only affected my legal case in the best possible manner but also restored my faith in legal representation and exceeded my expectations every step of the way. If I would have had him from day one my current situation would have become drastically different. I will say this he will be the only representation I use in any capacity needed from here forward. Words cannot express how grateful I am to him and the staff of Vegas West Attorneys for everything they have done to help my family and me!

The guy I should have hired from the start!
My divorce case was being grossly mismanaged by my former attorney who almost cost me everything when he failed to file the evidence by the submission timeline. I fired them and am so grateful I found Joe! Joe got me an extension on my case and was able to push back the deadlines the same day I hired him. He counseled me through the divorce process and got my ex to settle before the trail date. I thought the divorce would take years, but he managed to get everything settled in only a few months. Now I can focus on my daughter again, as well as reestablishing my career.

10 stars
Joe was extremely helpful throughout the whole process. Did an amazing job at explaining things and fighting for what was right. I didn’t feel alone in this scary process. Always quick to respond to any questions or concerns I had. Joe and his staff were all extremely friendly. I highly recommend Joe and can not thank him enough for all that he did for me! A+++

AMAZING
Joe was amazing! Everything was thoroughly explained from the beginning and updated all along the way. Could not have asked for a better experience.

Couldn’t be happier
Couldn’t of asked for a better experience. We had a rough start with my ex and all of his indecisiveness, but no matter how many revisions (that ultimately ended up in an adoption process) we were always welcomed with understanding and compassion. We always had a well guided hand and, now our family couldn’t feel more full that what we are today. Thank you for the support we received.

Professional
Mr Riccio handled a very tough job with many other lawyers and showed them that they were not able to prove he was wrong on this case. He constantly communicates with us and explains what is taking place with the courts. You never lose faith in what the outcome will be. a very efficient lawyer

Parents
We found Joe very quick, sharp witted and spot on with resolving our issue with our son’s case, resulting from a Mental Health condition. We had many different kinds of court hearings. He was easy to communicate with and was always assessible. We were satisfied and happy with how best to solve our situation with the best solution. We highly recommend Joe for his expertise in court.

Bringing my son home
Joseph W. Riccio did in 6 months what many other lawyers couldn’t do over 10 years . He saved my son’s life. He used the law and found creative ways to bring my son back home. My son before coming home, was on a very bad path and sorrouned negative people and things that a child should not be subjected too. Being a father, I new the odds were stacked against me, but with Joe’s help and guidance, we were able to save my son from what was for sure to be a dead end path of life. He gave my son opportunity to shine and shine he has with a 4.2 GPA and heading towards the Air Force. He is so exited about life now, a complete 180 and we owe it all to you Joe Riccio. Thank you, his Dad.

Additional time with my child
For years I have had difficulty finding a good attorney to represent me in a very high conflict divorce case. Each attorney I hired employed various strategies that ended in a disaster. Mr. Joseph Riccio evaluated the case, formulated a plan and was able to litigate my case in front of the judge making the Court understand my position. As a result I was grant additional time with my child.

Excellent attorney
I needed Mr. Riccio's help with my divorce. I am a foreigner so it was difficult for me to understand the procedures and underlines of the law and Mr. Riccio was absolutely available to help me understand what to do and how to behave. It was quick and easy.

Mr. and Mrs. John Edwards
Mr. Riccio was instrumental in assisting us in custody proceedings with our son. Our case lasted just over a year and without Mr. Riccio’s expertise, attention to detail and proactive approach, the outcome would have been quite different. We were so impressed with his services that even after the case was settled, we are again seeking his services to assist again. Hands down one of the most knowledgeable, professional and patient attorneys I have ever had to the pleasure of working with. He has become part of the family!

Family Law - Absolutely recommend
My case was a very hostile one where the opposition made every attempt to seek sole custody due to my employment in the military. My lawyer Joe Riccio made everyday breatheable and educated me with the type of individual I was up against and where this case was headed. He never sugar coated a thing and only gave me the advice I needed. He never contacted me (hourly rate) unless it was absolutely necessary. He is very knowledgeable in Family Law and I highly recommend him to represent any individual who has a bitter ex that wants to do nothing but take everything that you care about from you. He not only stopped the opposition from controlling the case, he fought to not have me pay alimony. There were many instances when the opposition tried to manipulate the case with frivolous litigation only to be put in their place by Joe. That told me just how knowledgeable my lawyer was, and I am very grateful for what him and his team did for me. In the end he saved my family from being taken from me which was my primary goal, so our kids were able to have equal time with each parent. He won my case for me and was worth every penny. I do not wish my situation on anyone, but if you ever need a very educated and aggressive lawyer who will fight tooth and nail for you and gets the job done, Mr. Joseph Riccio is exactly who you need.
