Reviews & Endorsements by Clients

Excellent lawyer and counselor

Patrick did a splendid job with my divorce. He is extremely professional, level-headed and focused on a fair and expeditious result. His legal fees, compared to those of the lawyer my wife hired, were fair and reasonable. Patrick and I established a plan and he executed that plan flawlessly. Most importantly, he had to deal with an unpredictable and over-billing opposing counsel and he dis so with grace and professionalism

A five star for sure!

Patrick took over my case in the middle. From the point he took over, I’ve not had to worry about anything. Devoted and sincere to his cases and clients. He stood by me as a lawyer and a guide( mentor). His team is equally friendly and devoted. I would strongly recommend him. Battling divorce and my rights away from family and new to the country wasn’t easy, but Patrick stood with me all the way and did the best to ensure that I was made aware of my rights and not exploited. Highly recommended.

Top Notch Attorney

Patrick handled my complicated international removal case very well. As a fellow attorney, my expectations were very high. However, Patrick and his team definitely met the mark. From his co-counsel Gabriela, to his administrative team, I received excellent support throughout my case. He is one of the most responsive attorneys I’ve ever worked with and always kept me in the know regarding my case. He was very pragmatic while being a strong advocate on my behalf at the same time. I don’t think we could have selected a better attorney to represent us in this matter and I would highly recommend him to anyone seeking counsel for a family law/divorce related matter. Patrick is an attorney that you can trust to get the job done and get it done well!

Great divorce Attorney

During my divorce, I was exposed to four sets of attorneys on both sides of the case. Patrick Markey was by far the most competent, most alert, and most knowledgeable on all aspects of the case and the law. He steered through the final stages of the divorce with a steady hand, always knowing how to react and when. If you are unfortunate enough to experience an inevitable divorce, then I would highly recommend Patrick Markey as your counsel.

Patrick was remarkable

His knowledge of the intricacies of divorce law in Illinois was nothing short of amazing. But more than that he understood when to push and when not to push, what was reasonable and what would just annoy the judge, and how to frame the negotiation at the end to focus on what was important. Each and every piece of advice was right on target – even if I didn’t always agree with him at the time. He was exceptionally responsive – on one particularly stressful Saturday morning I reached out to him expecting a response on Monday. I heard back in an hour. This was especially important to me because the petition was filed in IL but I live somewhere else – so all of our interactions were remote. I would use Patrick’s services again in a heartbeat.

My divorce

I am very happy to have hired mr. Markey to represent me in my divorce. Everything was handled very professionally and smoothly. Divorce settlement was signed much faster then i even expected. I would definately recommend mr. Markey to anyone that is about to go through a divorce.
