I was impressed by Patrick Yeatts's professionalism which is important and comforting to someone who's never gone through a divorce involving such a myriad of issues. He also had a good balance of compassion to complement his professionalism, which also important for someone who was on the brink of losing everything. He was able to keep that from happening for me. I highly recommend Patrick Yeatts

Mr. Yeatts was open and honest from the start of my consultation. The initial phone consultation was free. During this initial consultation he provided very good advice and did not pressure me to use him as counsel. He explained all possible scenarios and potential outcomes. He researched and provided information on the judge in my case and the expectations of the court. Once I decided to hire Mr. Yeatts as my attorney, he walked me step by step through the process that we would encounter in court. The outcome was favorable and Mr. Yeatts provided constant assurance throughout the proceedings.
