Capable and competent lawyer

Patricia Bisesto has been my attorney for the past 8 years. My ex-husband has gone thru about 8 different attorneys during that time, I would imagine in the hopes of finally winning over Patricia. This has yet to happen. During each court appearance, and there have been many, Patricia can jump in and... do exactly what needs to be done. She's is extremely knowledgeable of courtroom protocol as well as information that is and isn't admissible in court. Literally every judgement has been in my favor. Collecting the money owed or having a judgement enforced is another story. This is the downfall of our legal system, not of our attorneys It is a frustrating process, but one that can not be maneuvered without the help and guidance of a strong matrimonial attorney. Yes, you can go to court on your own, without representation, which I have done, but in comparing the two, I firmly believe now that you are much better off with an attorney by your side, especially a seasoned and experienced one like Patricia Bisesto.

Definitely Hire a Pitbull

Patricia Bisesto helped me navigate through a nasty divorce, culminating in a 6 day trial to divide assets and compel my ex to adhere to court orders. She far and away litigated on my behalf and was successful in representing my interest and the well being of my children. I would definitely recommend... her if you (unfortunately) find yourself needing a divorce lawyer. Although my divorce has been completed I am still fighting and she is still there fighting every step of the way.

One of the best divorce attorneys!

Patricia Bisesto helped me for two years in my fight with my ex-husband who did not want to fulfill his obligations concerning his children in our original divorce agreement. She advised me when I went to family court myself(and I won against a lawyer) and when it got really ugly, she represented me... and blew the other parties out of court. I always highly recommend her to all my friends. I describe her as a bull dog - she fights for you and has a complete knowledge of the law! I would classify her as one of the best divorce attorneys around - HANDS DOWN!

Wonderful Attorney

While going through a very tough divorce, I don't know what I would have done without Patricia Bisesto. She was always there for me when I had a question or a problem. She is a great attorney, very knowledgeable on the law and very professional in and out of court. Always had my best interest at he...art. I would highly recommend her to family and friends

Incompetent

After an initial meeting, Patricia seemed wonderful and compassionate so I hired her to represent me in a divorce. She ignored all my warnings about how my ex would attack and she was out-maneuvered by the opposing counsel consistently. She failed to respond to my emails and phone calls and did not... reply to the opposing counsel to represent me. It amazes me how incompetent she is in basic communication and record-keeping skills.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
