Ryan Michael Paddick

I retained Ryan Paddick. Personally I think that he is a very good lawyer. I stood In a very racist county, accused of a crime that didn't even take place. Every face in the courtroom was white, except for me and my family. Ryan had never experienced racism because he was white himself. But I... saw him treated differently when he refused to play their little game. At first it was all business, Ryan read all of the facts of the case and the law in Pa. It seemed like a sure win based on the law. However we both would soon see that in some counties racism is still alive and strong. I saw other white lawyers giving Ryan dirty looks and treating him different. However he never wavered. In fact he cared. At one point outside of the courtroom he said said " I know this wouldn't be happening if you were white". I watched this man fight back tears giving his closing arguments to an all white courtroom,. The prosecutor had the nerve to accuse me of being the racist. So many things were being done underhandedly. Even part of the discovery had been withheld from other black Attorneys. Well all of a sudden when Ryan Paddick who is white shows up without the black lawyers they call him in the judges chamber and missing discovery shows up, but only to try to persuade him to stick with the good old boys and his own kind. Ryan left that chamber and shared what was discussed and the missing discovery with the other black attorneys. Why am I putting all of this on here? Because I believe based on my personal experience that Ryan M. Paddick is an outstanding lawyer. He could have turned a blind eye and act like this was all normal, but he spoke up and called it like it was. Even though I did not win in that courtroom, Ryan did not hesitate to come stand by my side to appeal the ruling in that racist courtroom. During the appeal it became known by the states key witness that coaching and misconduct on the part of the prosecution had taking place during the trial. So I'm speaking up fir Ryan Paddick because the loss wasn't on him. The good old boys had an axe to grind, but they are being exposed. Thanks Ryan for being not only a good lawyer, but a decent Human Being, and not being influenced by those evil ones who sought to destroy me and my family. (BUCKKKS COUNTY)

Ryan is young and full of enthusiam, however he lacks the connections and behind the scenes savy to get the best outcome, he also took advantage of my family by playing 2 sides against, give him 10 years then take your chance, I would'nt. He represented me in a very minor misdemeanor harrasment suit ...and took 9 months to get no where, then I hired a great attorney and in 2 weeks he had the charge dismissed!

I would highly recommend Ryan Paddick to anyone in need of an attorney, especially in the criminal defense arena. At such a crucial time in my life, where 12 people decide your fate, Ryan Paddick was able to prove to the court that the charges brought against me were false. He was very comfortable in... the court setting and rose to the many challenges that were thrown our way. With Ryan Paddick representing me, and God on my side, my innocence was proven and I was found "not guilty" on all charges brought against me. While working on my case, Ryan made it a point to make me feel as comfortable as possible. He was very knowledgable, methodical, honest, and hard working. He completed statements, court documents, and other paperwork precisely and accurately. He kept me very informed throughout the entire process and even communicated with my family when necessary. Thanks to Ryan Paddick, not only was I acquitted in my criminal case, but we were able to receive a settlement in my civil lawsuit against the city. Ryan Paddick is great at what he does and he will always come highly recommended by me.
