Straight Forward and Honest!

I have known attorney Sullivan since 1999. She has assisted me through two painless divorces and two child support cases. Because of Attorney Sullivan and her attention to detailed research, my daughter's support will remain in place. She is extremely fair, professional, a great listener and her fee ...is very reasonable. Just knowing she is a phone call away makes me feel secure.

Best of the best!

5.0 star rating11/3/2017 First to Review OMG -what a life saver for me - Pat Sullivan was one of the best things that has happened to me. She is patient, tough when she needs to be, understanding, empathetic and extremely knowledgeable in the law. My first hand experience going through the Rhode... Island law system, she is extremely well respected by her peers, the judges and the negotiators - they consistently greeted her and by the body language you could see the quiet respect and admiration. My divorce case was probably one of the toughest in RI and longest (over two years) and Pat stuck with me when she easily could have said this is nutty - why put myself through this. Thank God she did!! She was available 24/7 giving me her cell phone number - I was treated as a person and not just some client/job. Her rates were fair and she was always accurate on time and hours. I am so happy that I had Pat in my life during this tumultuous time period. Divorce is never easy but in my case you had to have the patience of an oak tree and Pat never wavered. As my ex boasted to me "I have the best Divorce Lawyer in RI" - we'll he dropped her as well as another until the third lawyer hung on - I personally think I had the best lawyer and I can use facts. Can't say enough about Pat Sullivan - if you want a fighter and consummate professional in your corner - stopped looking and pray Pat has the time to take you on as client - if she can then rest assured that you are in great hands with absolutely the best experience and legal mind!

If you need a custody lawyer, Patricia Sullivan is without a doubt the best lawyer for the job.

We met with Attorney Sullivan when we needed an experienced, no-nonsense lawyer who could help us with a very difficult custody case involving father's rights. We immediately knew she was the right choice. Attorney Sullivan has gone above and beyond my expectations. She responds to every communicatio...n extremely quickly and efficiently. I hired Attorney Sullivan for her expertise; she is blunt and honest, whether it is something I want to hear or not. Attorney Sullivan is an outstanding lawyer who truly cares for her clients. Her professionalism and organizational skills are exemplary. Going into court with Attorney Sullivan is extremely comforting because she is always prepared and professional. After seeing her in court, and how she has handled my ongoing case, there is no one else I would want representing me. I very highly recommend her to anyone who is looking for a competent family lawyer.
