I am a partner at Hanis Irvine Prothero, PLLC. I assist people with estate planning, probate, real estate, and business transactions.

"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."
