Melissa D. Patrick

From the very first phone call to my first meeting, Melissa Patrick treated my case with urgency, respect, and unwavering dedication. I was facing serious criminal charges that could have changed my life forever. She took the time to understand every detail, explained the legal process in plain terms..., and built a powerful defense strategy. In court, Melissa Patrick was calm, prepared, and persuasive — her ability to dismantle the prosecution’s case was nothing short of masterful. Because of her work, I was acquitted on all charges. What impressed me most was not just the legal skill, but the genuine care she showed for me as a person. I always felt heard, supported, and defended both inside and outside the courtroom. I will forever be grateful to Melissa Patrick and highly recommend them to anyone in need of an attorney who fights tirelessly for their clients and gets results. Sincerely, The Krauss family and friends

I hired Ms. Patrick upon being charged with Unlawful Imprisonment, Interfering with communications and assault and battery. I was so distraught and confused at first. Knowing I could possibly end up in prison for 15 years! Melissa first calmed me down and made me focus. I was then able to provide her... with the information and evidence she requested. She listens and provides understanding in a confusing time with out judgement. I felt completely comfortable with her understanding her expert opinions and advisement. She guided me through the entire 2 years 9 months (due to Covid) that it took to go to trial after several plea offers. I'm more than greatful that I chose Melissa to represent me. And I am even more greatful to announce our verdict from the jury. It only took the jury about 20 minutes to reach a unanimous decision of NOT GUILTY on ALL counts as of Yesterday! Thank You Melissa! I truly believe you were God's choice.

Hired miss Patrick for my divorce. She took my money and went on vacation the next with out telling me. Did not make herself available nor took the time to learn my case. told me she was a expert on gm pensions. She knows nothing about pensions from what I can tell. Did not here from her again until ...court. She failed miserably it showed how much she did not know my case. She said she would prepare my pension but gave it to other att to prepare. she confused my case with others many times.I had to fire my first att she had ask me his name I told her. Then without my permission called that att and had discussed me. She did not object any of the judges rulings and told me I had a good appeal but she does not do appeals. In court I tried to get her attention by tapping on her arm rest and she swatted my hand away and ignored me. She and the other a tt went into judges chambers and talked and she had it all wrong on what was discussed and gave me bad advise. I would recamend her to know one.might as well represent yourself.

We came across her because she was court appointed to defend my fiancee and I must admit I was worried at first but she has been great. She has contacted me every time I have requested. She has taken time to listen to both my fiancee and I getting to know us and the situation and she is working hard... to defend him and hopefully there will be a good ending to this, which if there is its all because of her. She's an excellent and caring attorney and I would definitely use her again in the future and highly recommend her!!!
