Excellent lawyer for your worker's compensation cases.

Patricia Sandoz was recommended to me when I needed a lawyer to help me navigate a worker's compensation matter that I experienced. Not only is she thorough, she's easy to talk with and has excellent staff to work with. I highly recommend Patricia!

Excellent lawyer

Trish did an amazing job with my case. She asked me for all the information and took off running. She got me a reasonable settlement but made sure that I wasn't stiffed by the system. I will return if I ever need.

Expert Consult

I'm a work comp attorney in Atlanta, and I consulted Ms. Sandoz this afternoon regarding Wisconsin Law. She was extremely pleasant and professional, not to mention experienced. She took the time to fully educate me about several topics, for which I'm grateful! Thanks Ms. Sandoz!!!

Trish really knows what she is doing !

Trish did an AWSOME job of gathering pertinent information on my case and thoroughly explained what each step was about. She kept me well informed as the case proceeded. She was professional in all of our calls,texts, emails, and in person meetings. I would highly recommend her as a great attorney.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
