Highly Recommend

I have been working with Attorney Hughes for several years now. From closing on my first house, to writing my will and estate, he is my first call when I am in need of legal services. From a free consultation he helped a family member who was injured at work receive everything they were owed, and kep...t us informed on every step of the process. He has earned a lifetime of business from not only me, but our entire family.

Attorney Patrick Hughes

I have retained Attorney Hughes for personal and business legal proceedings. He has been nothing but professional throughout every interaction. Attorney Hughes treated me as a priority and operated in a swift, concise manner. I would highly recommend him to anyone needing legal advice.

Very professional service, highly recommend.

I've hired and consulted with Pat on many occasions. Matters ranged from a personal injury lawsuit to a few real estate closings. Each encounter with Pat was important and I was glad to have it taken seriously by his team. I will definitely be using Pat for future legal needs.

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.
