Litigation lawyer | Dec 04

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Patrick is a top notch litigator. He is extremely reliable, well prepared and organized. I relied on him many times when we worked together to review my briefs and provide critiques. He is very even keeled which captures his personality that makes him the right fit for many litigation matters where the stakes and emotions are high. Patrick's clients would tell you he is diligent about keeping them in the loop as to what is going on in their matter. His colleagues would tell you Patrick is always the first one to organize the group when it is time to take a break from the office and blow off some steam in a social setting like a golf outing or charity event. He is a smart guy who works efficiently but maintains his sense of humor and perspective on all things. I recommend Patrick as an integral part of any team and appreciate his advice and counsel."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
