About Kris
Biography
Established in 1995, Attorney Patria’s law office handles all personal injury and criminal defense cases.
Attorney Patria gives his personal attention and commitment to every client from start to finish. Initial consultations for personal injury and criminal defense matters are always free of charge.
All personal injury cases are accepted on a contingency fee basis; the attorney only gets paid when you get paid. If no recovery occurs, you owe nothing.
Fee agreements for criminal cases are reasonably priced such that clients pay only for the services they receive and never for anticipated services that are avoided. As with all such engagements, a copy is always provided to the client.
Attorney Patria has been obtaining proven results for nearly 30 years. He has recovered millions of dollars in compensation for his injured clients and has overseen and successfully managed thousands of favorable outcomes for individuals facing serious criminal charges of all types.
The law office of Kris Patria has locations in Acton and Fitchburg. Please contact the law office of Attorney Patria at your convenience to discuss your case.
