Counsel Patterson’s influence and impact extends beyond the courtroom, as her cases have been cited in major law journals including the Georgetown Law Journal on Poverty Law and Policy and the North Carolina Banking Institute at the University of North Carolina School of Law in Chapel Hill, NC. Patterson has also presented before peers in a national audience of lawyers and accountants for the Michigan Medicaid and Medicare Planning Update, on Financial Planning for the Elderly and Disabled.

In her role as Attorney Advisor, Counsel Patterson advised and wrote the appellate opinions of administrative law judges across the United States and Puerto Rico. Serving in one of the Federal Government’s key agencies that administers benefits for millions of Americans, Patterson trained at SSA Hearing and Appeals Division Headquarters in Falls Church, Virginia, just outside the nation’s capital in Washington, DC. In addition to writing judicial opinions, Patterson legally advised judges concerning Title II and Title XVI Social Security Benefits, which ensured judicial integrity and the legitimacy of the adjudicative process in the application of the law in granting relief to Social Security beneficiaries.
With significant legal expertise that has placed her at the center of solving some of the most complex legal issues for clients, as well as serving as a public advocate on the issues, Counsel Patterson has built and led influential businesses and nonprofit organizations that have made meaningful and lasting impact, establishing her as a prominent woman in executive leadership and trusted legal counselor.
