Review Sean Patrick

Very Effective at Achieving Successful Outcomes

Posted by

My family's business has employed Mr. Patrick to manage various business disputes ranging from breach of contract to defamation. He is an exceptional lawyer and skilled negotiator who has managed our legal affairs with the utmost care, professionalism, enthusiasm and determination. I would highly recommend Mr. Patrick (along with his partner Mr. Rifkind and their firm, Rifkind Patrick LLC). His firm is by far the most effective law firm in achieving successful legal outcomes that my family's business has employed.

Excellent work

"Mr. Patrick is an excellent attorney and negotiator. My materials company had a commercial dispute, and after filing a lawsuit we received what was owed for the job. We were paid ahead of schedule and under budget, compared to other attorney pricing. I highly recommend him and his firm."
