Attorney Pearsall's answer to one client's question is perhaps the most telling about his philosophy, integrity and his law practice.

Question:   Mr. Pearsall, what sets you apart from other divorce lawyers in Rhode Island?

Answer:   I care.  You see, I've already walked in your shoes.  I know what you are going through.  It makes it very easy for me to care about your fears, your frustrations, your concerns, and your family problems.

You aren't just bringing me a legal case.  You are trusting me with a part of your life! That's very serious in my book.

Now don't get me wrong.  I am not saying that when you select a Rhode Island divorce lawyer that you have to choose one who has been through a family court battle in order to receive good legal representation.

What I am saying is that in my experience people are more careful, more diligent, and fight harder for someone or some thing that they genuinely care about. I bring that caring to the table with me when I agree to represent you.

If you want an attorney who will care about your case as if it were his own, I'd be more than happy to consider representing you.
