Pat is an excellent attorney to work with as a client. She is very realistic about what the "end game" is going to look like from the start and communicates that to the client. She builds a strategy for getting to that end game with the client from the initial consult, encourages proactive disclosure and negotiations to facilitate that legal strategy and refuses to let emotional responses or motions from opposing counsel get in the way of getting to that goal with her client. She is a worthy litigator who knows the court and works hard in her client's interest, again focused on the pathway to the end game discussed in those initial consults. She also was able to make adjustments on the fly as required to keep the case moving efficiently. Most importantly, Pat was able to explain the process both overall and at each step along the way in a way that helped me understand how the puzzle would come together, the variances introduced by each judge involved, and helped me remain confident that we were progressing to a workable conclusion. Finally, she never used her position as my counsel to increase my anxiety about the divorce and the actions of my ex spouse or her attorney, rather she always dampened those emotions and kept me focused on constuctively ending the failed marriage in the best interests of me and my children. I would highly recommend Pat and her firm, which also was extremely supportive throughout the process.
I originally consulted with Patricia and then engaged her once I had made the determination that I would move forward with a divorce. I found Patricia to be very responsive, professional and she consistently assured that I understood the process and what the implications were when alternative paths and/or positions needed to be decided upon. She would also provide her thoughts as to what direction to take which I appreciated immensely. Most importantly, she always gave me the sense that she truly cared about me and my situation and that she was always looking out for my best interests. I found her to be a strong but fair negotiator and very capable in assuring that initial agreements made, between the parties, were translated appropriately into the formal documents. I am extremely happy with the way Patricia and her staff have handled my divorce. I would highly recommend her to anyone in need of family matter legal counsel.
