Ich hätte mir keinen besseren Anwalt, als Herr Rioult für meine Scheidung wünschen können. Herr Rioult hat mich überzeugt durch seine sehr sachliche, durchdachte und strukturierte Prozessvorbereitung und seine flinke und doch reflektierte Prozessführung. Fachlich ist er äusserst kompetent und zeichnet sich aus durch seine Kenntnisse im grenzüberschreitenden Recht. Zudem haben mir seine Ruhe und Menschlichkeit gefallen.
