Patrick Joseph Crawford

Patrick handled my divorce and child custody case with great calmness and objectivity. He was very attentive to my wishes and always communicated with the opposing party with great respect and in a non-inflammatory manner. This was very important to me, given the sensitivity of both parties through... such an difficult and emotional process. I interviewed several lawyers and found that most were very eager to spark arguments that would have prolonged the process. Patrick never took this approach and we managed to settle our case without intervention from the court. I recommend him without an ounce of hesitation. Kudos to Pat!

I couldn't be happier with my choice in hiring Patrick Crawford. From day one I explained to him this will probably not be an easy case and I did not have much money. I am a young father who was just fighting for my rights to have an equal opportunity to raise my son. Patrick Crawford worked with me ...on the finances and gave sound legal advice all the way through the court battle. Among all of the evidence I provided he utilized the evidence that he knew was crucial to the case and sorted out the evidence that would not bear weight in court. In the end, he fought my case in trial and did very well in court considering the other party was fighting for full physical and full legal with me only having my son every other weekend. My son is 16 months old and I now have both joint physical and joint legal custody of him in a state that is often seen as a mother-favoring state. I am so excited to move on with our lives and now have a future with my son that is no longer limited and I am so grateful for Mr. Crawford's efforts and patience for my case. I definitely recommend him.

Patrick Crawford has helped me through custody and child support proceedings. He is currently helping with the change of my son's last name. He is very professional, knowledgeable, honest, and he has put my mind at ease throughout the entire process. He makes sure to keep you in the loop of what i...s going on, and makes sure you understand each step. Patrick listens to what you have to say and keeps your best interest in mind. In the future, when in need of a family attorney – he will be my choice, hands down! I highly recommend Patrick’s services – you will not be disappointed!

Patrick took on my divorce and child custody case after I had spent more than two years and lots of money with another attorney, trying to finalize a divorce and custody agreement. I found him knowledgeable about the process and the law. I appreciated how quickly he got up to speed on the details o...f my particular situation, and settled on an approach and strategy for how to continue with my proceedings. Due to some legal work and filings already being completed in my case, in some cases, Patrick had to deal first with those, and then move on to the next step in his own strategy. It made for a more difficult case, I believe, but he negotiated the system and the steps with ease, discussing options with me, educating me on how things work, and working with me to make the best decisions. I appreciated his advice and time. In the end, Patrick took more than two years of legal work that had been handled by another attorney, sorted through it all and decided how best to re-try my case, and worked with me to get a solid, favorable divorce settlement and custody arrangement, within a very favorable timeframe.
