Client Reviews
"Patrick was great reviewing contracts and strategic planning."
"Patrick is always quick to respond and proactive with followup, which is valuable to our small company."
"Patrick was very professional and responsive to questions. He went out of his way to help me meet my short deadlines. Highly recommended and will definitely use his services again."
"Patrick was responsive and flexible, and always willing to explain anything we didn't understand in as much detail as was necessary. We'll be using him again."
"Patrick is a highly professional and very responsive attorney. He helped my partner and me incorporate our startup and completed several additional contracts related to the startup. Throughout the process, he kept us informed of his progress and completed everything on a very tight deadline. Would highly recommend him."
"I had a great experience working with Patrick. I recommend him to others and will work with him in the future. He set up a Delaware corporation for me, and also reviewed my angel investments documents. He turned around work quickly, and I particularly liked that he would SMS me if he had a question that could be answered with a short or yes/no answer, rather than call or email me."
