The Best!!

The start of your defense to any charges/allegations is to not talk/give a statement to anyone. I was facing a Special C-M with 15 years of active service in the AF. I called Patrick late at night and after 2 days of questioning by AF OSI. He returned my call within 15 minutes and we discussed my all...eged charges. I was hesitant about hiring civilian defense b/c of my financial status. I will tell you that the small price of representation compaired to a lifetime of retirement is worth it. Patrick will not make false promises and tell you that you will win. If any lawyer tells you they promise a win, you better run. Patrick requires you to be active in your defense. He will assign you task and expects you to follow through. Do not give excuses for he still has a lot of Marine flowing in his blood. He is family minded and will work dilligently for you and expects the same in return. He and his family sacrifice alot for him to represent you in your time of need. Patrick has such a wealth of knowledge with the Military Judicial system that you feel at ease when he is on the case. Patrick handled my case with great professionalism and dedication. I would recommend Patrick Mclain to anyone facing serious charges that could potentially end your career. I feel that you invest so much in your career, to not fight to keep it does not make sense. Patrick and his staff of top professionals will keep you informed through the whole process. I cannot express enough how greatful I am in looking up his firm and making that call to have him represent me in my case. Hearing the "NOT GUILTY" verdict was music to my ears and was a testiment to the beauty of the M-J system working like it should. Me and my family thank you Patrick and to your staff for all you did!

Not enough words. He is the best!!

I'm not sure how I could ever express how much Patrick meant to me and my family. I knew from the first visit that he was the attorney I wanted to represent me. From pre-trial to trial to post trial he followed through with everything. Even though the verdict did not go the way I would have lik...ed. If it was not for Patrick, I would still be in Federal Prison. This man will REPRESENT YOU 100%

Professional, dependable and honest

I cannot recommend Patrick highly enough. I won my military case due to his diligence, knowledge and experience in military law. Had I proceeded on my own, I would have lost, for the process was simply too complex. When working with Patrick, there was never a time when I felt left in the dark on m...y case, nor a time when his assessments and instructions were unclear. Should you be in any difficult circumstance, Patrick will work his tail off for you and keep you clearly informed on the status of your case. Again, I highly recommend the services of Patrick McLain.

IRR Exemptions

Patrick is the tough love type of attorney. He will not hold your hand and do everything for you. What he will do is assign you the tasks that need to be completed in order to obtain a succesful ruling in your favor. If you are serious about winning, he is the attorney for you.

Wonderful First Time Experience

Patrick J. Mclain handled my case from half a country away with expertise and precision. Patrick and his staff is always ready and willing to answer any question myself or my wife were able to conjure. I felt comfortable from day one in his care. He was able to win a victory in a case that seemed to ...have no silver lining. I have never worked with an attorney until Patrick and I must say that most of my conerns and prejudices about the profession melted away working with him. Aside from being an agressive attorney, Patrick has a wonderful auora about him which I would find welcome at any time. A man in this line of work with the dedication and morals exemplified by this human being unveils a new type of reprsentation, that of pure good will. I would recommend Patrick to any person who feels there is no way out and all odds are against them. Performing miracles just seems to be something Patrick J. Mclain has perfected.
