Patricia Veres

Very pleased. Patty took on my case after several months of attempted settlements. He jumped right in and gathered all needed information extremely quick. She found so many details that helped my case that I didn't even know about. She was very professional in court and got her points across very wel...l.

You Won't Be Disappointed!

I had hired an attorney previously to do my divorce and was not very satisfied. So, when I needed help with a post-judgement motion, I retained Patti's services. What I loved about her was the fact that she really listened to me and my concerns and offered legal advice in conjunction with my ne...eds. She took the necessary time to understand everything about my case and answered my questions thoroughly. She never made me feel like I didn't know what I was talking about or that my thoughts didn't matter. I really felt like she always kept my best interest in mind and she didn't just tell me what I wanted to hear, but also what I needed to hear. I appreciated this immensely. In addition, I never felt like she was just trying to gain billable hours as I had sometimes felt with my previous attorney. She utilized her support team when she could which helped to save me on fees, but never to the detriment of my case. Finally, Patti helped me to complete my case quickly which avoided me having to go to court, a fact that I'm very thankful about. The judgement on my motion was even better than I had hoped or even dared to dream and I have Patti to be thankful for this. I highly recommend her to anyone who is in need of her services!

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Pat Veres is the Fee Secretary for the District X Fee Arbitration Committee here in New Jersey and is responsible for the management of all fee arbitration matters within the District. The position is demanding, requires an attention to detail and the ability interact both with attorneys and their clients with professionalism and awareness of the opposing parties' concerns. Having served as Chairman of that committee, I had the opportunity and pleasure to work with Pat Veres. Pat was exemplary in fulfilling her duties as the Fee Secretary, and was quite helpful in responding to other committee members, the attorneys whose fees were disputed, their clients and myself. Having worked with Pat closely over an extended time, I fully recommend her to clients who need a family lawyer capable of handling difficult matters with aplomb and getting the job done."
