“I hired Patrick to help out with an issue that involved my husband who is stationed in Japan. I was worried, scared and confused, but Patrick and his staff were honest, helpful, patient and kind during this ordeal I was unexpectedly dealing with regarding my husband. Patrick got me information about... my husband, his location and what he was being charged with very quickly and guided us toward the best action possible. His office is upfront with the fees you will be responsible for and they make payment very easy for you. They will also answer your questions (even if there are a lot of them). My husband received a very good outcome to his case and is still in the Navy. I know without a doubt, it is because we had Patrick as our lawyer. While I wish that this all had never happened, hiring Patrick as our was the smartest thing I did. S.S.

As a military academy cadet, our son was facing a sexual assault charge during the height of the epidemic of such accusations in our country. His case also coincided with a national news story regarding how the academy was addressing these types of issues within the academy and the resulting shake u...p of their sexual assault prevention office. Patrick McLain put his heart and soul into our son's case. He worked seamlessly with our son's assigned military legal team and utilized every available resource to understand the true facts of the case and bring these facts to light. McLain brought with him his in depth legal knowledge, his military expertise, and a team of top legal experts. McLain's courtroom dialogue and presentations were precise and masterful. He broke down the prosecution's presentation and replaced it with a detailed timeline and testimonies which clearly defined an accurate picture of events. He enabled the jury to see our son as the truthful and honorable cadet that he is. The service that we received was worth infinitely more than the price that we paid. In spite of the perfect storm described above, our son was acquitted of the charges brought against him. Today we are celebrating our son's freedom and the victory provided to us by Patrick McLain.

When I hired Patrick Mclain based on a recommendation, I didn't fully understand how military justice worked. He immediately built tremendous trust with us and told me that he fights hard for his clients. I hired him after one phone call, without ever meeting him, while he was overseas in fact. ...That's how much I believed in him. After hiring "Team Mclain" for our son's highly publicized sexual assault case, he immediately went to work with our son. He is direct, no nonsense and passionate about fighting for his clients. Patrick and his team of Michael, Natalie and expert lawyers are simply THE BEST team that fully understands the complexities of military justice. Once "Team Mclain" went to work with our son at the Academy, he immediately dove right in and went above and beyond anything we could have ever imagined in preparing for our case. He fought hard at pre-trial hearings, preparing motions and bringing in his expert team of psychodrama experts that helped prepare our son for the trial. When this hit the mainstream media, we were terrified that our son would not get a fair trial. "United States vs." is a scary proposition. Patrick's no nonsense demeanor, concise communication and plan of attack was absolutely brilliant. Patrick worked with our son's Academy legal team seamlessly. I cannot say enough about his leadership and calm demeanor in such a highly publicized case. Most importantly, he (and his team) prepared our son more than we could have ever imagined, all while our son was trying to go to class and pass final exams. At trial, Patrick and his team were masterful in presenting our son's case. He got to the truth quickly and kept everyone in the fight all week long. I listened to his closing arguments intently. In my opinion, he uncovered the absolute truth and proved our son's innocence. My favorite moment of the entire process was when I hugged him after the verdict and whispered, "You not only saved our son, but you saved generations of our family. Thank you." Bottom line, when you hire "Team Mclain" you are getting THE BEST ATTORNEY you can ever hire, and I mean that. He fights hard and cares so deeply about the cases he takes on.

I went to Patrick and his team after a previous eight months of being led down a path towards separation. I accepted an NJP under the impression and advice from a Defense Counsel that retention was inevitable. After my CO recommended retention I continued to work hard, served honorably, and awaited t...o officially put one mistake behind me in order to move forward in my career. I was then notified months later that I was recommended for separation at the three star level. At this point when my entire command recommended I resign I sought consultation with Patrick. From that point forward I was made confident nothing was final and we could fight this. The team helped me develop the rebuttal and took the legal process out of my hands. Again for another six months I waited for a response, but the team consistently checked in with me and doing so kept me on course for success. Finally in the end the impossible happened, I was given a second chance and retained. I hold no doubt that this was due to Patrick and the team. Semper Fi.
