Richard A Pattison

I hired Rick Pattison and paid a $3,500 retainer, expecting effective legal representation. Rick claimed this would be his cost for a Modification of Parenting Time. 4 months later, my motion never got heard and he’s requesting another $6,200 from me. However, my case was delayed for a month after p...ayment, and when it did move forward, deadlines set by the court were missed. He failed to inform me he is not able to be present in the courtroom in front of Hon. Tina Yost Johnson - I had to find that out from the judge. Despite my repeated requests, he failed to take necessary actions on my behalf and instead seemed to work in favor of the opposing attorney and what she wanted. Communication was poor, billing practices were questionable, and when I requested that he withdraw from my case, he refused. I would not recommend this attorney based on my experience.
