Hired Attorney 2019-2021Patrick was at first very reassuring, answered questions and then took a retainer for a motor vehicle case. Thereafter, after DOZENS of attempts to contact his office via phone and email for 4 months, he wouldn't respond, still hasn't sent a a bill (has kept the entire retainer) and has not provided counsel (didn't show up to court). Very very frustrating. I'd recommend using someone else that keeps their word rather than just your money.

Hired Attorney 2000-2001Patrick represented me in a DUI case in 2000, he is very professional and will work tirelessly on your case. I would recommend him to anyone who is facing a similar case.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
- Comfort Level – Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
- Credentials – How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
- Cost – How are the lawyer's fees structured — hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
- City – Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?
Want to check lawyer discipline?
It is always a good idea to research your lawyer prior to hiring. Every state has a disciplinary organization that monitors attorneys, their licenses, and consumer complaints. By researching lawyer discipline you can:
- Ensure the attorney is currently licensed to practice in your state
- Gain an understanding of his or her historical disciplinary record, if any.
- Determine the seriousness of complaints/issues which could range from late bar fees to more serious issues requiring disciplinary action.
