Prompt, informative, and thorough legal advice for prenup agreement

I used Patrick's legal services in drafting a prenup agreement this summer. Patrick is a consummate attorney and legal adviser. He took the time to thoroughly explain to me my options--both in an initial intake session and in several follow up phone conversations--and he helped me anticipate future s...cenarios as we considered what to stipulate in the agreement. Throughout the process, he kept me informed about our timeline, and ultimately helped us finish the agreement sooner than expected. Ultimately, Patrick helped me clarify my own expectations for my marriage and the years to come. I would highly recommend his services to others who need assistance in drafting a prenup.

Experienced and dependable

Patrick handled my divorce case in 2011. It was an amicable split (as much as any divorce can be), and we went through a mediator, but I really relied on Patrick to handle the big picture items. He even helped us with the parenting agreement far more than the mediator did. I knew absolutely nothi...ng about the law and was very worried I was going to unknowingly agree to something that I would later regret. But, Patrick made sure I understood every word of the agreement and all of the ramifications, which was a huge relief. He knows what he is doing, and is honest and hard-working. I was able to calm down because I knew I was in good hands. Patrick is very professional and knowledgable, and got everything through the courts in no time at all -- he made it as painless as possible. Patrick has since helped us revise the parenting agreement and certain terms of the alimony/child support as my ex-husband had employment and salary changes. And, I think I've called him a few times for advice. He is just very personable and helpful! I strongly recommend him.

He is an excellent Divorce Attorney.

I hired Patrick for a very messy long divorce and he was very helpful and patient throughout the entire process. There was a custody battle and a real estate short sale and he was very good at keeping me informed and advising me throughout the entire thing. He was very good at giving his honest asses...sment of what is realistic to get when going through court. He had a good rapport with the judge in my case and got results. I would highly recommend him for anyone going through a complicated divorce.

Perfect lawyer for a complicated case

Patrick Markey did an excellent job on my very complicated child custody case. It involved two separate jurisdictions and lawyers in two different states. He was clear with his expectations for how the case would proceed and extremely knowledgeable of the intricacies of child custody law. I would ...hire Mr. Markey and his team again in a heartbeat. Because of his hard work and excellent representation I was able to remain in the state where I lived with my child despite my ex's attempts to force us to move.

Honest, reasonable, a blessing!

Patrick helped me put the finishing touches on my divorce agreement. He was concise, very easy to work with and very reasonable. A few years later when I had a issue arise over the agreement, he took my call for free and walked me through the issue which was raised by the other side and gave me h...is opinion. In the world of family law, he is a God send!
