Pros
1
Experienced and knowledgeable in family law matters, with a strong understanding of the local court system and relationships with judicial officers
“Mr. Rawnsley was very professional, highly informed about the relevant statutes and had a good understanding and relationship with the judicial officer (something that is very, very important).”
2
Passionate and diligent in advocating for clients' interests, going "above and beyond" to ensure the best outcome
“It was clear to me from day one that Pat's priority is the safety and wellbeing of the children involved in any given case. This made me trust him immediately. I also deeply appreciated that he was straightforward and honest with me about what I could expect as an outcome in my case, even when that reality was also painful. He never gave me false hope, yet he fought his heart out, going above and beyond to ensure the best outcome for me and my daughter.”
3
Communicative and responsive, keeping clients informed throughout the legal process
“Throughout the process, communication was great and all questions were answered promptly. Every aspect of the case was explained and discussed and his advice was always excellent.”
Cons
1
Potential for high legal fees and billing practices that some clients found questionable or excessive
“Patrick Rawnsley is a terrible money hungry attorney that doesn't get good results for you if you're not wealthy and willing to pay out your life savings.”
2
Failure to take timely action or follow through on promised legal actions, resulting in negative outcomes for clients
“I pleaded with my counsel to do something. Take action. If it had been me as the father who had done what she did, she and the court would have already shredded me apart. I begged over and over for almost a month, and finally said if something wasn't going to happen soon that I would retain new counsel.”
