About  Richard

Richard J. Homer, Jr.

What is His Why?

A few years ago, Richard had a very impactful experience; his father passed about a year after his mother. He was appointed the Personal Representative or Executor of their Estate. This extremely challenging experience motivated him to become a Probate Specialist. It gave him the desire to help others avoid having to go through the negative experiences he had.
