All our legal needs

We have closed two home sales with Patrick and have recently contacted him to assist with our Estate Planning and Wills. Patrick is responsive and provides timely and accurate legal consul for all our legal needs. He listens and provides guidance that other attorneys have charged for in our past. ... We appreciate his quick response to our questions and his clear and helpful guidance in planning for our estate. We highly recommend Patrick for any legal needs and will continue to refer friends and family to Arena Law for future legal dealings. Judy & Tim

House Sale and Purchase

My wife and I have used Patrick twice, previously to purchase our first home and then again to sell that property and purchase another. We would never hesitate to use Patrick again for any real estate transaction, he is fantastic and we were lucky to be referred to him by our first purchase agent. ... Patrick coordinated everything between the buyer and sellers attorneys, and kept on top of our less-than-stellar mortgage broker to make sure we had what we needed to close on time. He was always available by call or text even when he was out of office. At closing, Patrick reviewed and made sure we understand everything we signed. Each document was handled separately and explained before we signed off, so we left feeling confident things were in order. Patrick's fixed fee structure is very reasonable, especially for the amount of communication and preparation he put in. We have recommended him to several friends and will continue to do so.

Will Probate

I hired Patrick to handle the probate of my mother’s estate. I felt that he was very professional throughout the entire process, which also included the sale of the condo in Florida. My family and I are extremely thankful for his excellent work and we highly recommend Patrick to anyone seeking an... attorney.

House Purchase

My parents recommended Patrick to me for my house purchase, because they used him three years ago. He did a wonderful job in answering all of my questions. I was a first-time home buyer and was very nervous about such a big investment. Patrick walked me through, every step of the way. Also a big ...shout-out to my realtor, Ramona, and my mortgage broker, Cheryl.

Stay away from this lawyer.

We used this lawyer for a house closing at the suggestion of the realtor. It has been almost 120 days and he has still not yet dispersed the money from the sale. Upon asking him he said that further contacts would cause him to charge extra money that would exceed the house procedes.

The small amount of money (that is being held) is an Escrow that this individual and his ex-wife are fighting over, amongst themselves. This individual is fully aware that the Escrow may not be released without a Court Order, or by mutual agreement between this individual and his ex-wife. All other proceeds were paid to this individual immediately after the funds cleared.
