Breach of contract expert

I had a great experience with Sean Patrick. I am out of state, but needed to pursue legal action in Illinois. From the first phone call, I knew I found my lawyer. Sean was action-oriented, he did what he said he would do, and he helped me reach a settlement that I was pleased with. I would use them a...gain if ever the case arose. If you're looking for someone who knows the game, and will aggressively fight your case, give him a call.

Great experience

I had a multi-million dollar intellectual property matter that Sean helped us through, saved us millions, and litigated the issue with ease. Would highly recommend.

Unprofessional

Had a very unpleasant experience with Sean. He was rude, demeaning and condescending in our exchange. He said there's so little at stake in my case financially that my case essentially did not matter. To me, that was incredibly insulting because I work hard for my money and I felt belittled by his co...mments. I would highly recommend clients to STAY AWAY from Sean. Not professional at all.

Right Man for the Job

Sean Patrick was the attorney I needed for my situation. He guided me through my first ever real estate dispute with skill and confidence. Mr. Patrick took a difficult and frightening situation and put me at ease. I would definitely hire him again.

Very Effective at Achieving Successful Outcomes

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 r...ecommend 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.

Avvo Rating

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.
