Patrick DeCarolis Jr

Patrick and his staff are very proffessional competent, effective, highly motivated, creative, strategic and result driven. He represented me against a high income earner and a title company in a support case. Although I felt like the little man or underdog against them, he made me feel like a giant...! He's a shark when he needs to be but actually an attorney with a heart that cares. He was an advocate and fought for what was in the best interest of my two children and prevailed. Their lives have been blessed because of his results. Patrick is excellent at his craft! Not only has he been my attorney, but 17 years later I can honestly call him a friend and someone that cares about my children.

Although my actual divorce dragged on for over 3 years, it was by no fault of Mr. DeCarolis. I was in a terrible and complicated situation with my ex husband. Mr. DeCarolis and his team were 100% available. I had absolutely no clue where to start with the proceedings. Mr. DeCarolis was patient, a...nd extremely helpful. I didn't need hand holding, but I needed easy to understand explanations, and that's exactly what I got. When it came time to get an order for support, Mr. DeCarolis wasted no time and got me the highest amount possible (less than 5 months!). I was expecting Mr. DeCarolis to be smart and assertive because I knew I needed that for my case, and he came highly recommended from another lawyer. What I was not expecting, was the care and personal attention that Mr. DeCarolis and his team provided..a great combination for anyone who wants the very best.

I hired Patrick after getting a terrible result in court with my first lawyer. We developed a plan together. I felt my opinion mattered. We hired the experts we needed to implement the plan. My ex was very difficult. But we stayed the course and finally forced her to settle when she knew we were...n't backing down and we had the case better prepared than she did. And after we settled, Patrick followed through to the point where my ex had to pay me sanctions, twice, for what she refused to do that was court ordered. I give Patrick five stars for his efforts and the results.

When I first met Patrick I was scared to death - my husband had just filed for divorce and I was clueless as to how to proceed. My life was upside down. In just a few months Patrick helped me not only to right myself but also to loose the fear that had paralyzed me. He helped me to believe in my o...wn, genuine, reality, not my husband's. I did and I still do. I quickly got to the point where I didn't feel like my husband could crush me with his money and his lawyers. Guess what, he didn't crush me! It was a long and complicated road but I had Patrick's wise counsel and support at every marker and we finished it together. In a case like mine it was a marathon and not a race. Patrick is steady and calm and was these things for me when I could not be. I will always remember his sage advice - read it three times; first you'll be shocked and stung, second you'll decipher the message and the third time you'll see some truth and have some growth. I am very glad I chose Patrick to be my lawyer.
