Review Patrick McArdle

Trustworthy

Posted by

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

Posted by

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 grateful for his help.
