Divorce case
Pat got the job done! He was always available via phone or email for consultation. It was a great experience in communications.

I engaged Pat Reilly's legal services with high expectations, anticipating a premium level of service befitting the associated cost. However, my experience fell significantly short of these expectations across various aspects. Here's a breakdown: Wasted Time Impacting Financial Costs: Schedulin...
We take great pride in the level of professionalism and competent legal representation that we provide to our clients. Sometimes, it is not possible to meet client's expectations. In this instance, in the first meeting with the client, he was advised that his expectations were unreasonable and could not be met, as he was hoping to have a signed Marital Settlement Agreement within 2 weeks. It was explained that there are 2 parties involved, and getting a quick resolution required the second party to agree to a quick resolution, which ultimately she did not. Nevertheless, the client retained us and we did our best to proceed on his behalf. When we could not meet his unreasonable and impossible expectations, I suggested he retain new counsel which he did.
