Christine Danave Patterson

I was served a summons for a hearing with very short notice. My ex was making an unfounded and misguided attempt to reduce the parenting time I have with our child. I hired Christine, and from the beginning she was comforting to me and a strong advocate for my child's rights, and my rights as a fa...ther. This sort of situation is extremely stressful and anxiety inducing. She let me know what I needed to do to look my best. She negotiated strongly and fairly with the other attorney. She gave me the confidence to remain calm and collected throughout three hearings. The result was that I not only didn't lose any parenting time, but we achieved a true 50/50 shared placement agreement, which is the most fair for everyone involved. Christine is knowledgeable, confident, and knows what is fair. I would work with her again in an instant if the need arises.

My ex and I had an amicable divorce agreement and required a small amount of skilled legal advice to make it final. Not in love any more...but both love our kids. Christine was kind, empathetic, and knowledgeable - allowed us to complete the process with minimal stress AND even looked for ways to sav...e us money. Recommending her to any friends who are ready to take that step.

Christine Patterson represented me in a child custody case in the state of Rhode Island. From the first phone call, I was made to feel comfortable and was walked through every step of the process, in a way I could understand. She not only represented me in court, but advocated for my son and kept his... best interest in mind. She kept me updated and informed every step of the way and handled my case respectfully and with compassion, she even made it a point to check in on my son. Patterson made an extremely stressful and trying situation, as comfortable as possible. Her professionalism, vast knowledge, compassion and drive for justice, all factored into my experience and results.

I have been a landlord for twenty years and have evicted quite a few tenants. I have been working with Christine for the past year and have never had better results. Christine takes charge and gets possession faster than anyone I have worked with. Christine has also advised me on several other... legal matters and has helped me make the right decisions. I highly recommend Christine to anyone who needs legal advice and or representation

I tried to be my own lawyer. I went out on the internet, downloaded Notice of Termination of Tenancy document to evict a tenant. I thought I could save myself money. Biggest mistake I ever made. Tenant was very unhappy and refused to pay rent from that moment on. I contacted Christine for advice. I r...ealized after talking to her I needed a lawyer. She gave me some very sound advice such as Courts do not look favorable on evictions for other than non payment. To evict for any other reason will require substantial documentation and may drag on for sometime. She advised me to pursue eviction for non payment of rent. Christine gave me some very sound and helpful advice so I hired her that day. I nor my family have ever been to court for any legal action. It was very frightening but Christine walked me through it. She explained what will happen before, during and after each court session. I believe it was Christine's professionalism and calming demeanor that made this process bearable. I hope I never have to go to court again but if I do I want Christine at my side.
