Amazing legal representation

I recently worked with Patrick Lackie, and I couldn’t be happier with the outcome. Facing a potential DUI conviction, I was overwhelmed and unsure of what to expect. From the start, he demonstrated professionalism, expertise, and genuine care for my situation. He worked persistently to negotiate... with the prosecutor, and advocate for me. Thanks to his efforts, my charge was reduced to a non-criminal offense. This was a significant improvement that saved me from harsher penalties and long-term consequences. Throughout the process, Patrick Lackie kept me informed, answered all my questions, and guided me with clarity and confidence. He truly went above and beyond to ensure the best possible outcome. If you’re looking for a skilled, compassionate, and dedicated attorney, I wholeheartedly recommend Patrick Lackie. I am incredibly grateful.

"Mr. Lackie is an attorney of many talents. He's an outstanding prosecutor committed to the advancement of justice. I have worked across the table from Mr. Lackie on a number of matters and found him to be a straightforward, fair minded and honest prosecutor. I've also argued traffic infraction cases with Mr. Lackie as the pro tem judge. His rulings were clear, concise, just, and never vindictive. I've also observed Mr. Lackie in Superior Court on numerous felony matters. Mr. Lackie is a dedicated and diligent defense attorney and his courtroom presence is noticed by prosecutors, the bench and the defense bar. Anyone hiring Mr. Lackie can rest assured because they're in good hands."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"As a former prosecutor who worked opposite Mr. Lackie for 2 1/2 years, I wholeheartedly endorse him as a very highly skilled attorney. A client in need of help would be hard pressed to find a more tenacious, persistent and aggressive defender. I have known Mr. Lackie for almost 5 years and would highly recommend him - his knowledge of the law and of the local court system is indeed enviable, and his skill as a negotiator is superb. He is, in short, an outstanding advocate who consistently obtains very good outcomes for his clients."
