Dean E. Patrick

I was very pleased with the way Dean Patrick handled the closing of my late aunt's estate in Detroit. She had no family in-state and did not leave a will, so I had to find a way to settle her estate from afar. Even though I live out of state 600 miles away and could only make one trip to his office i...n person, he kept me well-informed on the status of the case via phone and e-mail, and completed all the necessary tasks without my physical presence including court appearances, which I greatly appreciated. I am not sure if I will ever need legal help in Michigan again, but if I do, I would not hesitate to contact him. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

A couple months ago I received my first ticket with a 4 point penalty and a fee of around $185. I didn’t know anything about how the traffic system worked and i’ve never been in a court before so I choose to be safe and have a lawyer represent my case. After calling multiple lawyers I almost decided ...to go represent myself in the court because they didn't seem to be interested in the details, nor did they ask me to meet them in person to discuss my concerns and the plan of action, all they asked for was a copy of the ticket and a check with money. But when I called Dean, he seemed to be interested in all the details, and invited me over to his office where we spent around an hour discussing all the aspects of the case, he didn't give me false hope and was very straightforward but with his great attention to detail I felt comfortable that it would go smoothly. He was able to reduce my ticket from a 20 mile over to just impeding traffic with 0 points and no fees!! I highly recommend Dean to anyone!!!!!

Good Morning, Attorney Dean Patrick is a Five Star lawyer, excellent in every way. He helped with my deceased father's estate. My father left me a certificate of deposit for Charter One Bank-my uncle and aunt withheld the CD from me. The CD was sent to the Unclaimed Property for the State of Michi...gan. I am the primary beneficiary and they were the secondary. Attorney Dean explained the rules and steps to take. He called the Unclaimed Property I appreciate all of his help, he is the best. I would recommend his services to my family and friends.

I have been working with Dean Patrick for the last few months in regards to my mother’s probate. I found him, ALWAYS, to be both friendly and professional. When calling his office he was readily available and eager to help me by answering my questions, explaining the law to me or guiding me with sou...nd advice in my role as my mother’s executor. I believe his code of ethics is impeccable and his knowledge of probate law thorough and complete. I never doubted that he had my very best interest at hand. Basically, he REALLY helped me out and I appreciate that he went the extra mile for me - time and time again. I trust him 100% and highly recommend him. Regardless of what kind of legal manner may crop up in my future, Dean Patrick will be my very first call.

I live out of state and was devastated to say the least when my father passed away. When I came up to sort out my father's affairs I quickly realized that his so called wife of only 4 years was trying to throw me through a loop and cut me out of everything entirely and that I needed to find and hire ...an attorney to help me. I ended up meeting with two other attorneys, the first wanted and outrageous fee, and I didn't get feeling he would really fight for me. The second attorney flat out told me that nothing could be done. Then I came across Dean Patrick, I read and liked what his reviews had said. I called his office up, was able to speak with Dean. I told him that I was just in town visiting and that time was of the essence and he had me in the very next day to discuss the matter. He gave me his undivided attention and listened to everything I had to say, which really meant a lot. He was able to unravel the inheritance issues and was able to get the beneficiaries amounts back to what my father's wishes were. He was also able to get me sentimental items of my father's that would had otherwise been sold in an auction, and that to me was the most important thing. I would never be able to thank Dean enough for his kindness throughout the whole process and I was always kept up to date on everything that was happining.
