Trustworthy St. Paul Attorney. Good work and fair billing.
I've worked with Patrick McGuiness for business entity creation, employee handbook, general employment practice consultation, issues related to customers/collections. Also consultation on the contracts we use with our clients.
Patrick is a pleasant person to work with and is very professional and timely about communication. Your phone calls and emails will be returned promptly.
He has experience owning a construction-related business, as well, so I think he is uniquely qualified to give good advice to business owners and would-be business owners. His fee structure is fair for both sides. He definitely earns what he bills... which has not always been how I felt about other attorneys.
He is my go-to attorney and I would call him regardless what legal issues you're facing. If his firm doesn't have expertise in your exact need, they can recommend you to someone who does.
