Wow, how this guy handled my case

Used patrick many years ago, he was excellent available, and excellent in the court room. Came to him a second time 20 years later, help onto a domestic case for over a year, cost me over $100,000 in lost wadges, lost evidence I had given him for safe keeping, never returned a single phone call wh...en seeking advice on some critical issues regarding my case letting evidence crumble away on my phone as data was overwritten. Was threatened with arrest on another matter discussed it with him, told me i was breaking no law, then when I got arrested I used my one phone call to notify his office, didn't show up at all, a total bad arrest that could have easily have been handled in district bound over to circuit. Then quit without spending any time on my case what so ever except to file continuances, keep every penny i paid him over a year ago. Staff is completely incompetent, asked for them to get an interpretation of a code in lien law, when i looked at my file, she hadn't even written the code was asking about down correctly. It was like dealing with Comcast, I have never been so frustrated with something in my life.

Patrick gave me hope in my time of trouble, analyzing the evidence, and filing the right motions. Also he, and his staff obtained lots of other case documentaion which they went through to determine a pattern of misconduct by the arresting officer. I was kept abreast of the ongoing situation which sa...ved me having to travel the 2200 miles to court when it was postponed repeatedly. I think Patrick's persistence with the prosecutors is what made the difference in getting the case dismissed.
