About Patrick
Biography
I am a product of divorced parents and a split family household. My parents were divorced when I was 12 years old, with both my mother and father later remarrying. Both of my stepparents had children of their own from prior marriages, who became part of my family. As a result, I have experienced firsthand the emotional and financial challenges of divorce and family law issues and seek to help my client navigate the often confusing legal complexities family law litigation can pose.
I received a bachelor of arts, magna cum laude, with honors, from Syracuse University’s College of Arts and Sciences and Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs double majoring in International Relations and Economics. While at Syracuse, I was named as the College of Arts and Sciences College Marshal and Convocation Speaker. I received my Juris Doctorate from Saint Louis University School of Law where I finished in the top 25 percent of my class and was awarded the School of Law’s Academic Excellence Award (highest grade obtained in the class) in the field of Securities Regulation. While in law school I also participated in Trial Advocacy and advanced Moot Court. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________

HUGE mistake hiring this guy
I almost lost everything due to Patrick Pedano's poor representation. Luckily he withdrew from my case and I hired a lawyer who actually protected me. I do not recommend.
Posted by Rose | September 25, 2012
Mr. Pedano worked hard and achieved all my needs while going through my divorce.
Mr. Pedano could not have done a better job representing me through my divorce. He was very honest and diligent to get me what I needed through my proceedings.
