We have not found any cost information for this lawyer
I am a partner at Hanis Irvine Prothero, PLLC. I assist people with estate planning, probate, real estate, and business transactions. This includes matters related to Wills, Trusts, Power of Attorney, administration of estates and trusts, guardianships, real estate transactions, boundary disputes and related issues.
Due to my litigation/arbitration/mediation experience, I am called upon to assist clients in a variety of matters. I am result oriented and find great pleasure when clients reach their legal goals quickly and efficiently. When a fair resolution cannot be achieved, I fight for my clients to achieve the most beneficial result possible. I have extensive experience in Superior courts, including trials, mediations, and arbitrations.

Extremely Helpful!
Pat reviewed with me the necessary medical documents I needed and had them ready for me to sign in less than a week. Steven, his assistant, met with me to finalize the documents.

Why did I procrastinate for so long?
Pat Hanis was exceptional and exceeded my expectations - I can't recommend him high enough!

"I've been working with Pat on a daily basis for the past five years. He is hard-working, thorough, well-prepared, and a very strong trial lawyer. Communication with his clients is very important to Pat. He is also very involved in the community and has a great sense of humor."
"Although I'm a little prejudiced (notice our last names), this is genuinely one of the brightest young negotiators/litigators I have ever known. Absolute loyalty to his clients. Goes well beyond the call of duty in his representation."
