Trustworthy

Patrick handled my personal injury case. I felt he was professional and thorough. He returned calls promptly and kept me updated on the status of my case. I felt his paralegal Heather was extremely helpful as well.

Professionalism at its finest

I called Mr McArdle while in town for only a couple of days and he adjusted his schedule for a meeting with me last minute. He gave me a lot of insight and was able to help me keep my attorney costs low by showing me things I can do myself to help myself. I strongly recommend him and am so gratefu...l for his help.

Effective Attorney

Partrick McArdle came into our lives when we were absolutely destroyed. To say we didn’t know which way was up is an understatement. However, the first day of meeting Patrick, my sister, father and I knew we hired the right attorney to honor our mother’s memory and to walk us through this insensiti...ve, and often insultingly long process. Other than amicable divorces, we were first timers in the litigation arena. Thank goodness for Patrick and his team. He was professional, diligent and tough - without being ugly. I was present at many depositions and it was impressive to watch the information extracted from people without intimidation. The truth always comes to light. Patrick’s experience and knowledge gave us a timeline on how long the process would potentially take. This allowed us to make an informed decision in moving forward with this process. Once we decided to move forward, the only thing required of us was patience. I called in 3 months increments and would always get very informative updates. Patrick and his team literally walked us through the process every step of the way. At the end, the timeline Patrick outlined for us was so close that my sister and I took note. We simply said to one another…impressive. The sad reality is…NOTHING we did or the amount of money we were awarded would bring our most precious gift back to us. But Patrick made sure they heard and spoke her name over and over and over again. Because of Patrick and his team, they KNOW our MOTHER was LOVED! We held them accountable for their deviating from the standard of care. If your loved one has been injured or, like ours, lost their life. Then don’t hesitate to put your trust in Patrick. We did and we are forever grateful!
