Patrick Herring's Lawyer Endorsements
"I’ve known Pat for more than a decade, and I’m glad to endorse him without hesitation. Pat is an excellent, high-integrity attorney. He is practical, careful, and consistently focused on what actually moves his client’s interests forward. One thing that sets Pat apart is his CPA background and the way he brings a financial lens to his legal practice. Pat has great judgment, communicates well, and takes real ownership of client outcomes. Pat and I engage in similar practice areas but at times when I need to refer a potential client to another attorney, Pat is my go-to referral."
