I had used Pat and Trinity in the past, and when my ex and i could not agree on a settlement matter, i knew i needed to hire them again. Pat made every effort to reach a settlement, but we were unable to get my ex to agree on anything, so this matter went in front of the judge. Trinity represented me in court. She was able to wade through a mountain of information I gave her, and narrow the case down to the core issue and argued it beautifully. I won my case handily thanks to her excellent vision and ability to cut to the heard of the matter and not get caught up in "red herring" arguments (What the judge said about the opposing lawyer.). I will definitely hire them again if the need arises.

My dad hired this lawyer, and he was fantastic. With enough patience through the months he had figured out a plea deal which reduced my sentencing of 10 counts of misdemeanor to simply 2 counts. I have probation for a year and community service but it could have been worse. I thank him for his patience and strategy!

Earlier this year, I was arrested for growing a single marijuana plant in my home. I also had a very small amount of low-grade THC extract in my home which didn't help matters at all. As a result, I was thrown into the slammer for six days, lost my job, the respect of my wonderful neighbors, and was pretty much forced to put my career of 25 years on hold. Although, the grow was for personal use only, there were three pending felonies attached to the occurrence. The phrase, "Intent to Distribute" was sandwiched in there somewhere and this bugged me tremendously as I was not in the business of selling or distributing in any fashion. I informed Mr. McDonough that if it were at all possible to get all three of the felonies AND the arrest record dropped, I'd do anything to make this happen. He worked some serious magic and was able to get me accepted into Drug Court where all charges and public arrest records will be dropped under successful completion of the program. I might add that those accused of distribution are not normally eligible for the program. As a result, I am now almost seven months sober, back on track with GOD, and strongly looking forward to getting back to my much-missed career very shortly. Patrick McDonough is the "David Copperfield" of attorneys and I now truly consider him a friend. Excellent work by an excellent man. KUDOS! Poof... I'm gone... Sincerely, The Invisible Man

Pat is an expert when it comes to criminal law. Pat is very knowledgeable and informative, which gave me confidence going into court. Pat did a great job breaking it down so I could clearly understand my options and his experience was the key , he had the respect of the Judge and the court that is for sure. I came out of court knowing I could not have done any better Thanks Pat

I was referred Mr. McDonough by a friend. Mr. McDonough was very understand of my case and was willing to help and guide me. Even though we were located hours apart he had no hesitation to visit with me and to speak with me whenever I had new information pertaining to my case. I would recommend Mr. McDonough to anyone, with his experience and knowledge.

Patrick McDonough was the best lawyer we could have representing us. Life was a mess and Mr. McDonough went to work. We were so lost but our lawyer communicated and gave honest feedback, my case is finally resolved. Thank you Pat. I feel like he is an attorney that has seen it all and knows what to do. I will recommend Mr McDonough to anyone dealing with a criminal case who wants justice and peace of mind.

Mr. McDonough was contacted by my family following a false accusation made. From the first contact on the phone to the very last email, Mr. McDonough was patient, thorough, and gave us great peace of mind. He listened without judgement, gave sound consultation and realistic timelines and expectations from the very first meeting and continued to do so throughout the working relationship. His communication skills with us were excellent and he went above and beyond for my family. I can't highly recommend him enough.

I was facing misdemeanor Animal Cruelty charges for my pet that I took to have treatment for her leg injury that I am unsure of how she received the leg injury; it just appeared out of nowhere. Thanks to Mr. Patrick McDonough, I got my dog back and will have a clean record again!!!! Thank you, Forever grateful Debra T.

Earlier this year I was charged with a DUI. The situation was stressful as anyone could imagine. A serious charge on my record, jail time, and license suspension was at stake. With Mr. McDonough and his teams experience and expertise throughout the process, I was able to avoid it all. My charge was reduced, I kept my license, did not receive points on my license, and did not serve additional jail time. With his hard work and knowledge, he was able to negotiate with the prosecutor with the odds stacked against me. I would highly recommend him if you are in need of legal assistance.

Pat has been extremely helpful to us, both on minor issue like traffic court, and some very serious criminal defense matters. He was very responsive to our needs, and is very knowledgeable and guided us through the entire ordeal. We highly recommend him for any criminal defense needs, especially in Gwinnett County where he is very well connected.
