Excellent attorney

I cannot thank Patricia enough for the support, professionalism, and expertise she brought to my sexual assault case. From the very beginning, she made me feel heard, validated, and protected. Her deep understanding of the law, combined with her compassion and fierce advocacy, gave me the strength an...d confidence to stand up for myself. Patricia was always responsive and clear in her communication. She walked me through every step of the process, ensuring I fully understood my rights and options. Her strategic thinking and attention to detail were key in achieving a resolution that brought both justice and closure. What truly set Patricia apart was her empathy. She treated me not just as a client, but as a person going through an incredibly difficult experience. That made all the difference. If you’re looking for an attorney who is knowledgeable, trustworthy, and genuinely cares about your well being and your case, I wholeheartedly recommend Patricia.

Dedicated, hard working, and vigorous

Ms. Pastor represented me in a serious personal tort case against a much more powerful defendant. She fought tirelessly on my behalf until earning me a significant settlement. I highly recommend her.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
