Thomas did an amazing job coming out to the center where they had accused Me of child negligence. He talked with every single one of my witnesses making sure he left no rocks unturned. It was very important to me that he show me how important the case was to him. He went above and beyond getting me in front of the Grand JURY, coaching me on how it would be & last but not least getting me NO BILLED! I'm thankful to this day for Thomas! I still have My JOB because of him.

I would recommend Patrick to everyone. He is the best to help my Domestic case dropped and dismissed. I have consulted with few others lawyers, but I chose him even he is more expensive. I chose him because I felt so confident with him, the way he handled very professional. He is trusted and his staffs very helpful; they responded to my questions, emails effectively and quickly. It’s worth the money to hire Patrick McClain.

Patrick McLain is THE EXPERT on the military justice system! Before I realized I needed an attorney, I thought my situation was a easily explained and easily understood mistake. I found myself being (subtly at first) ostracized and excluded from meetings, conferences, and correspondence --- all that were directly related to my area of responsibility. It dawned on me, via a "we need to ensure the i's are dotted and t's are crossed," from one of my bosses, that the "easily explained, easily understood" was going to cost me my 25+ year retirement - the result of a lot of sacrifices and opportunities foregone. Hiring Patrick was the BEST DECISION IN MY LIFE! He knows when to be an all-out bulldog (go USMC!) and is the master of a well-placed growl (go USMC!). The first thing Patrick advised me was to keep my mouth shut- - I did, and I still do. Patrick WON my case for me - - I will be retiring with ALL of my hard-earned benefits. The experience was rough but I am very,very grateful I had Patrick to help me through it. His expertise is supported by the full range of experiences; he knows how the system works! And, he is always available to answer any questions - - even late on a Sunday night before one has to go into work on a Monday, facing the silent treatment. Patrick, thank-you!!!

A MAN THAT GOD PUT IN MY PATH For the past year and half I have been through the hardest ordeal in my military career. I was facing multiple charges in a Special Court Martial. Not having any experience in legal matters I needed someone with the knowledge and experience in Military Law not only to represent me, but also to fight for my 26-year military career. Mr. Patrick McLain was that individual; someone I could trust and who guided me every step of the way. He held me accountable to study my own case and ensured I provided all facts that were necessary to ensure a favorable outcome. I must say, I truly believe that God put Mr. McLain in my path at the time when I needed solid legal representation the most. His entire staff was extremely professional and available 24/7 if I ever had any questions or concerns about my case. I highly recommend Mr. McLain to anyone who is facing any legal actions against them; he is truly a professional and a dear friend to my family and me. Thank you for all you have done for us.

DO NOT USE THIS ATTORNEY! I contacted this attorney about a relatively minor speeding ticket in Dallas, that would have cost less than $200 had I paid it up front. I am a very conscientious person, so I notified them the day after the ticket, and followed up to make sure I would not have to appear at court on the date the ticket stated. I never was in contact with Mr. Lochry, only his legal assistant Mary. That is fine and perfectly normal, but she is very short in her answers. I was told she would be in contact when a new court date was set. Years went by, and finally I was notified by Mary that the court had set a date for what I thought was my first court date. Apparently, they had set a court date earlier, but NOBODY from Mr. Lochry's office knew about it or even notified me, so a warrant was issued for me! To their credit, they did get the warrant removed due to moving office locations and never receiving the mail, but I STILL ended up having to pay an additional $150 warrant fee! I was VERY upset about having to pay almost double the original fine. When I emailed about it, Mary denied that I had to pay the warrant fee. I emailed her back a copy of the required payment document I received, and the only answer I received was several weeks later after I sent a follow up email that stated, "Sorry, no there isn’t anything we can do. " I am just grateful that I was not pulled over during the time the warrant was out for me! I am NOT a criminal. This speeding ticket was the worst violation I've ever done, and I wanted to take care of it in a legal, efficient matter. Based on my terrible experience, I would not recommend this attorney to anyone unless you want to pay more money and get a warrant issued for you!
