Patrick S. Bedard

Overzealous and aggressive; will cause both his client and other party more harm than good. The practice of Attorney Bedard is predatory on the ignorance of young families and harmful to children and both parents, regardless of which parent he represents. Such practice of law is disgraceful to our... society and should not be allowed to exist. The following letter was sent to the Maine State Legislature and is based primarily on my 15 years of first hand experience in dealing with Patrick Bedard and his overzealous predatory law practice: Re: YORDC-FM-2010-00190 On any cross functional team, with highly educated specialists in different fields, you will get just as many ‘it has to be done this way’ statements. No single one of them is ever the best solution, no matter how they are weighted. These adversarial systems and those who specialize in them are not equipped to do anything but more harm than good for children and both sides of their families. With such benighted arrogance, the levels and prevalence of which are not seen in any other profession, lawyers continue to tear families apart and create problems for all who do not yet understand what they do – their actions are not protective, they are predatory. It is disheartening and, frankly, concerning that the behavior of those who work in the judicial branch is such that they often only protect their own authority through coercion, while keeping loving and capable parents from their children. Such would-be tyrants are unfit to hold positions of authority – I would not trust them to manage a house cat - the clearly narcissistic self-serving rants demanding obsequious behavior while negatively impacting all aspects of others’ lives are quite disturbing and do anything but build trust and respect for these institutions of government. Simply pushing people through like cattle and continually dragging out the process while overzealous attorneys escalate contentiousness and hostility between parents is, again, predatory and only self-serving for the arrogance of lawyers. Forever dragging parents ever deeper into adversarial behavioral patterns rather than educating and encouraging development of communication skills. It harms our society far more than helping it, especially children. The judiciary and court officers of this state are clearly incapable of stopping themselves from spreading their malevolence and benighted arrogance to children and families. What is the legislative branch doing to protect our children? I appreciate your time and attention to this matter. I look forward to your responses. Best Regards, Justin Tahai
