Feedback received from clients
"I luckilly have never found myself in legal trouble before, but when I needed a lawyer Mr (George) Patros was a perfect choice and one I would not change to this day. He is very knowledgable, experienced and had an answer for every question and informed me well in advance of anything coming up. He got me through the hardest years of my life. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone as nothing short of an excellent lawyer."
