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.

I was referred to Patrick by a dear friend of mine and I'm thankful that I was. I've had the experience in the past where I had to hunt down my lawyer and to no avail at times. Patrick on the other hand would reach out to me when it was necessary and important while always being detailed and informat...ive with the information he related to me but most importantly he was truthful and straight forward with the expectations from the case and the possible outcome. I'm happy he's my lawyer and would highly recommended him as a family lawyer.

Patrick took a stressful and anxious time in my life and made me feel as calm and prepared as possible. He also kept me informed of anything and everything involved, always returned my calls promptly and never seemed aggravated with me when I would ask a bunch of questions or didn't understand somet...hing and required clarification. He is easy to talk to, respectful and even funny; Patrick is the kind of person I would want to be friends with outside of the nastiness of family court. Most importantly, I am very satisfied with the work Patrick did for me as my attorney and with his very reasonable rates. I am out of state, and I put a lot of trust in Patrick to represent me in a contentious and very important matter. I would hire him again without hesitation if I ever needed to [fingers crossed I don't have to] and enthusiastically recommend him to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

He started out really good, but then just seemed to fall off the cliff. It was almost as though he was trying to win a popularity contest and make friends with opposing counsel. He is ok, and maybe it was our chemistry, but what he promised and delivered were 2 different things. I wound up with a ...different lawyer and got somewhat closer to what I was looking for. It just sucks to be a man in Illinois who wants to see his kids.

Patrick Markey is an excellent attorney, highly professional, competent, efficient, easy approachable and always available. I recommend Mr. Markey without reservation. Mr. Markey worked our case with passion and dignity. He explained to me the reality of our case by details. He never gave us false ...hope. I always tell him the true and with my truth, he did justice and won my case. He is a master making accomplish the father‘s right. Today, I am grateful to Mr. Markey not only because I did not have to travel long distance to be present in the court room, but also because he makes my son’s life happiest.
