My first introduction to Patricia was a recommendation by a colleague in the same business and had…read morewonderful results. I was forced out of a medical practice after a corporation bought it and required I see more patients per hour. It was beyond what I felt was proper patient-care, and they kept me on for two more years at 4 patients an hour since I was the primary practitioner and had great patient-provider rapport, and it gave the corporation and new graduate time to gauge the amount of visits they could squeeze out of our mostly Medicare retired community. They figured out the metric with the freshly-minted dermatologist who had 50% stake in the practice, fronted by the corporation. Forced out, but with plenty of experience and other practices trying to hire me, I was scooped up by an old colleague. He told me about Patricia, and how the treatment was incongruent with the labor laws. I ended up settling in about 3-months for a sizable amount, and could have rolled the dice and taken it to the labor board and possibly forcing a settlement over three time what I received. Patricia explained to me the pros and cons of going for the long haul, including the customary % of the settlement and penalties due the lawyer after the court hearing, and I felt she could have made out better by battling it out, but encouraged me to take the sizable settlement with minimal representation costs. By the way, the plaintiff hired a well-known San Francisco labor law litigation team, and Patricia had them "on the ropes" from the beginning, and they saw that she knew the law, and advised the plaintiff corporation to settle almost right away. Who knew a smaller town litigator could make big business and a profits first/ patients second corporation and medical provider bend to the laws of the land- Patricia did it. The second time I retained her was when I was going to contract with a local native american tribal clinic, and she said she could look over the contract, but had little faith in a fair dealing if we were to terminate the contract against my will, due to sovereign nation status. When we did sever ties, I wrote it off, as again I was contracted immediately in my specialty by another clinic. I contacted her a third time, and it was regarding the contract they provided to me, which was actually written for a locum tenens facilitator providing temporary help to the clinic. She explained the detail to me in terms I completely understood, wrote up a new independent contractor agreement that the clinic immediately agreed to, and also agreed that it protected both myself and the clinic from future issues. I consider it, along with the other two cases she defended or advised me for my agreeing to terms, to be money well-spent. I will always confer with her in my labor law issues.

We walked into Nikki Ferris's office already carrying feelings of embarrassment and shame about our…read morefinancial situation. Unfortunately, we walked out feeling even worse. Rather than feeling heard, respected, or guided through an already difficult process, we felt judged, questioned, and dismissed. During our consultation, she made it clear that she serves as a trustee in bankruptcy proceedings, and the way the conversation unfolded left us feeling as though we were being treated with suspicion rather than as people genuinely seeking help. We left feeling as though our circumstances and concerns didn't matter. I understand that bankruptcy law involves difficult questions and uncomfortable conversations. We weren't expecting someone to tell us what we wanted to hear. We were simply hoping for professionalism, compassion, and a willingness to listen. I wish our experience had been different.

I had reached out to at least 4 other attorneys and all were months out. At our first meeting I was so impressed with her attentiveness as I described my situation. She assured me that my case would be approached with the best interest of my children in mind and a focus on meditation not litigation. That is exactly what she's done and her ability to achieve positive outcomes is appreciated. Melissa is easy to reach and always responds quickly. I recently had an issue with the other party not complying with court order on a Sunday morning, I reached out to Melissa by text on her personal phone and she replied immediately! I felt bad for bothering her on a weekend and told her such, she replied, "this is exactly the reason that clients have my cell phone. Don't worry about bothering me on the weekend." That to me is above and beyond! I'm so thankful for Melissa and her expertise in navigating family law and her willingness to not drag every little thing before the court. She will reach out to the other party and try a resolution through conversation and negotiation. Usually with a good outcome. The only time things weren't moved forward was because the other party was obstructive, unprofessional and inefficient or educated on best practices concerning family law. Melissa can only do so much as one side of a two side situation and she works hard. I highly recommend her. Thank you Melissa Atteberry!
