Disappointed

Working with Patrick was an extremely frustrating and disappointing experience. He was deceptive, unassertive, and appeared intimidated by the opposing attorney — to the point where he recommended I agree to $3,500 a month in child and spousal support, despite my clear financial situation. After doin...g the calculations myself and presenting five possible scenarios, the court ultimately ruled support to be $1,800. Yet Patrick pushed for nearly double that amount, showing either a lack of effort or fear of confrontation. What made matters worse was his unprofessional behavior — at one point, he even screamed at me over the phone, despite me never having disrespected him or raised my voice. I had to ask him to calm down, which felt like a complete role reversal. I was treated like an inconvenience, not a client. I also found myself constantly calling for updates due to their lack of communication, only to be charged absurd amounts for phone calls that were a direct result of their own inaction. As an active duty Marine with 19 years of service, this added stress was completely unacceptable. I was honest and transparent throughout the process, but I was left to face the consequences of trusting someone who clearly didn’t have my best interests in mind. The only useful thing this law office accomplished was securing a bifurcation in my divorce — everything else, I’ve had to do better on my own. I strongly do not recommend this attorney or law firm to anyone going through a difficult legal matter. You deserve someone who will fight for you — not fold under pressure. If they want to write a comment after I post this I can provide proof. Again, I strongly recommend you find another law firm.

Dishonest and Over billing.

I would advise do your thorough research before counsel this office for family law. The entire staffs is dishonest, unproductive and untheical. I am paying dearly today ovee 2 years plus of legal fees with little result. You have been warned.

Great office!

I retained Patrick O’Neil a few months back. He was very open and honest with me when he spoke to me. I was very uncertain about the path I was about to enter but his right hand Randi walked me through everything! Fortunately my husband and I were able to reconcile but if I ever had to go through thi...s again I would Definitely use this attorney again and I definitely recommend them! Thank you for everything! GO RANDI!!

Highly Recommended

Patrick is a down-to-earth, compassionate person who also has the strong legal skills needed to address the complicated and fraught situation my case presented. He represented me in a family court hearing, and ultimately secured a settlement that is surprisingly fair and equitable on both sides. The ...settlement comprehensively resolved every pending issue, which has resulted in a substantial decrease in conflict. Most of all, Patrick prioritizes and advocates for the best interest of children, and helped me to always keep that at the forefront of my mind.
