This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Condescending

I called Pat Micek's office for a consultation and she was very condescending and rude. She has a patronizing tone and talks down to you. I felt very uncomfortable speaking with her as she was very hasty. Pat doesn't seem to be empathetic at all. I ended up going with a different lawyer who was at...tentive to my situation. It’s quite disheartening and hard to believe that someone with her character and attitude is a lawyer for senior citizens.

Wall Street Work at Main Street Prices - Excellent Professionalism

Pat updated our wills, living wills, health proxies and created a trust for my wife and myself. By asking probing questions, she made it very simple for us to make decisions so that our affairs are now in good order. She is easily accessible by phone or email, but we recommend a face to face meetin...g with her to accomplish the best results for your particular needs. Her fees are extremely reasonable for the work and knowledge she brings to the table. If you are searching for a professional advocate in the area of law, Pat should be your first phone call. You will not need to search any further.

Outstanding Professionalism

Pat Micek has been our lawyer, both professionally and personally, for seven years now and I challenge anyone to find a more knowledgeable, thorough, compassionate and professional legal representative. In addition to other areas, Pat is particularly experienced in estate planning and corporate matte...rs and has assisted us very successfully with each. Whenever I'm asked for the name of a great lawyer, Pat is the person I recommend.
