Attorney Brad Sauer and his team gave me a sense of hope when I thought all was lost. Brad worked efficiently and I appreciated his brilliance and tenacity. Because of Brad and his team my family and I can move forward, together. Brad gave extremely prudent and helpful advice. Additionally, Brad was expert at managing expectations and communicating with me throughout the process. I give my full endorsement to the Law Office of Patrick McLain and my primary attorney, Brad Sauer.

From: Calvin & Sheila Washington. Our experience with the Law Office of Patrick J. McLain has been exceptional. In a moment of need, attorney Michael McLain was readily available to answer my questions and talk me through various options. The firm is extremely credible with many years of experience and an extensive knowledge base. Micheal was very generous with his time, and I felt as if my situation was of the utmost importance. Please if youre ever in need of legal assistance, dont hesitate to contact them.

Honed by decades of service and experience, Occams blade holds true in the steady hands of this eminent surgeon of words. Several times over the past three years he had to take back a recurrent cancer of apathy and ignorance out from the dim gaslight into brilliance, and cut down further to healthy, correctly functioning structure and processes. Because of Patrick and his legal team, I have tension-free closure with early retirement rather than a prolonged, draining, mishandled separation for physical disqualification due to occupational injuries. After 23 years of service, I plan to enjoy life well past 60 with tiny, easily forgiven scars that are painless and already fading. Thank you Patrick McClain, for Life After the Reserves. He offered several times to continue to fight for what he considered a deserved and correct final outcome, but Im walking away whole from a crossroads where I now have only good options. At that crossroads, there is an ethical, reliable person who was just an email away for a phone conference, who was meeting deadlines at all hours on my behalf, and is now still there at this moment helping others.

They are way too expensive, they charged me 9500 and only had to go to court one time, they would not refund any of the money and would not take my sons case that was also involved with no extra charge, they would not answer any questions regarding parole, even when it was just a legal question. If your case is simple, don t go here!!! they seen me coming !!!!

One of the most professional law teams I ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Brad Sauer specifically and his team at Patrick McLain, were consistently outstanding in their both legal and personal support of my case. Constant communication and clear understanding along with striving for my goals and helping do their best to accomplish the objective from a variety of avenues. I would absolutely recommend this firm, and again Brad Sauer specifically to anyone, and have already to personal acquaintances. They will fight for you.

I am so thankful, and happy that I chose the Law Office of Patrick J. McLain. I chose them because they are knowledgeable and caring. Attorney Eric Durojaiye and Michelle are exemplary professionals. Going through a Federal prosecution is worrisome, but this team of lawyers made me feel confident. They know what they are doing. The Judge even gave attorney Eric Durojaiye compliments for his work. 10 out 5 stars.

Mr. McLain and his team were with me every step of the way for my two year long battle in the military court system, from my confinement to my full acquittal. The experience, passion and most importantly the care provided cannot be beaten. I would get consistent phone calls making sure that I was okay mentally, and not letting myself get painted as a number or a problem despite my commands efforts. Patrick does not sleep. He does not rest until the job is done. He is blunt and will tell you what is going on in every situation, making sure that you have an informed decision with honest feedback. After everything is said and done, youll realize that for everyone that comes with team, hes very cost effective too.

When I called his office I spoke to Jose about the case. I was told Patrick was a pit bull and would fight hard for my son in a military case. Communication was horrible, the first time I spoke to him it felt like I was disrespected told not to speak and he did all the talking. His staff was a pleasure to work with. Him not so much. When my son would have conversation with him he felt same way like it was beneath him to speak to him. The witnesses were never contacted, day of hearing he was shocked to hear and see me there and was told he was never informed of his familys presence. Then I get an email/text stating call office and pay more money. Day of trial the Jag attorney was second chair and my son in middle. Jag said to my son tell him Objection and he refused. We as the family were so angry and frustrated we wanted to fire him and my son said were already hear just lets see where it goes from here. It got worse. He stumbled talking to Judge, always asked to repeat question. He acted like he was very distracted or extremely jet laged he was not tracking at all. Everytime we looked at him instead of paying attention he was on his lap top not following the case. The worst 50k + ever spent. On the 3rd day having no concern for taking care of his client the only thing he cared about was more money. He was not going to stay for day 3 unless he got more money. My advise find another attorney, one who actually cares and not just about money but the client he is representing. After talking to more familys who hired other attorneys for there case more serious than ours they got better representation and people skills with a better out come.

Amazing attorney. I never want to have the need for an attorney; however, when I did need one - I am so glad that Patrick McLain was available. He is very blunt. He will tell you like it is - and keep the conversation short. However, when you are in need - he really steps up. Watching him get ready for a hearing is pretty impressive as well. It s like watching an athlete get ready for game day. He was also great at getting me prepared for our hearing. He kept my mind on track and really prepared me for how to keep the answers focused. He can short, blunt, and harsh! I m glad he is on my side.

Written word is almost insufficient to express how grateful I am to the Law Office of Patrick J. McLain! The entire team did such a superior and professional job for me, in my hour(s) of need, it has taken me almost a month (from the end of the trial) to put words to paper, and express my gratitude. I have known Patrick and his wife for over 40 years, a great Marine and a great family man. However, I never thought I would need his services. I was VERY wrong and VERY glad I knew him and his team. I have nothing but admiration for the professionalism, honor, dedication, and skills of the team of Patrick J. McLain, Eric Durojaiye, Jerry Ray, Michelle Araujo, Natalie McLain, and all the other team members who assisted with my case, at the Law Office of Patrick J. McLain. I have been a Banker for almost 40 years. In December of 1985, as a favor to a friend at a local charity, I donned a Santa suit, and assisted with food and gift distribution to indigent families in the Grand Prairie Community. Little did I know this would become a 35+ year side gig for me, assisting local charities and non-profits all over the DFW MetroPlex as Santa Claus. In December of 2021, while volunteering at the Grand Prairie Chamber of Commerce Christmas party, I was unjustly accused of inappropriately touching two young ladies. I had done nothing wrong, and refused to plead guilty (or no-contest) to something I did not do. While it was ONLY a Class C Misdemeanor, my reputation in the community was at stake. In a small community, and to a home town Community Banker, reputation is of paramount importance. Patrick, Eric, Jerry, Michelle and the entire team treated it (and me) like it was a life and death matter, because to me, it WAS. The, interviews, delays, discovery, scheduling, re-scheduling, additional witness interviews, multiple prosecutorial postponements and changes went on for OVER a year and a half. Through it all, the team at the Law Office of Patrick J. McLain kept me informed, protected, prepared, and ready for battle. When I finally got my day in court, Eric, Jerry and Patrick were there every step of the way, by my side, defending me against misstatements of the prosecutor s witnesses, and the slanderous, manipulative overreach by the team of prosecutors. In the end we prevailed; a unanimous decision by the jury of NOT GUILTY on all charges. Again, I cannot express an appropriate level of gratitude, nor recommend higher, my lead attorney Eric Durojaiye, Chief Investigator Jerry Ray, and all the members of the team at the Law Office of Patrick J. McLain. If you have the need, THIS is the team to hire! William R. M. Moser

If you re accused of a crime, hire Mr. McLain. You won t find someone that works harder to keep you out of a cage. I ve had Mr. McLain on my case for over 18 months due to a continuation, and he never stopped picking away at any possible government case. His closing argument alone was worth every penny. If you re looking for someone to hold your hands and comfort you, go see a therapist. If you want someone to fight your case, hire Mr. McLain, and do what he tells you.

I hired this firm, specifically Attorney Eric Durojaiye to represent me in a legal matter recently. Mr. Durojaiye worked diligently on my case and was able to have the matter dismissed. I would like to applaud him for always being knowledgeable and also truthful. There were never any incorrect expectations set in order to convince me to continue with this firm and my questions were always answered appropriately. I would 100% recommend Mr. Durojaiye as legal representation if you have a pending criminal case and would like an attorney with that knowledge and proficiency to obtain a favorable outcome.

If you have a legal matter in the military, Patrick is the lawyer you want. Ive had Patrick on two different occasions to support me in legal issues in my career in which the case was either dropped or found not guilty. Both cases had to do with positive urinalysis. The first case was in 2008 as a junior service member, in which I requested court-martial, and the command dropped the case. The second was in 2021, in which the command sent me to an administrative board instead of allowing me to request court-martial, and the administration board voted in my favor, two to one. Patrick is a true marine and will fight tirelessly and advocate on your behalf to get a positive result. His whole legal team is very professional and available 24/7 to answer your questions and work with you to give you peace in a stressful situation. If you want results, this law office you want.

Patrick McLain literally saved my life. I was facing a allegation that carried a life sentence and would have torn me from my family. The opposition was highly motivated to nail me to the wall due to today s climate of victim hood I was in a perilous position. Patrick is a busy man and so his approach is not tender, but if you need someone to fight a war for you it is not tenderness you need. He is straightforward, honest, and surprisingly emotionally invested in his cases and clients. The man never sleeps. If your case can be won he will win it like he did for me. If it can not be won, he will guide you to the best conclusion. It may hurt but trust this man. I pray I never again need his services but I know who my first call will always be when it comes to legal manners. In regards to Mr McLain reputation. From what I observed he is highly regarded amongst the premiere defense lawyers across the country and I retained his service at the recommendation of a top tier defense lawyer who did not work military cases. In regards to his courtroom tactics. Mr McLain went to war with a prosecutor who used ever dirty trick in the book. The straight up lied and omitted evidence. I have no idea how any of it was legal. Mr McLain remained focused and calm. He always found a way to have the prosecutor pay for their mistakes. We did not win every battle in the court room, due in my opinion to a very biased judge but when the case closed I was found NOT GUILTY on all charges. We won the war. With all the respect in the world, I love you Mr McLain. Thanks for giving me back my life.

In times when you are at your most vulnerable, Patrick McLain is the advocate you want in your corner. But he doesn t just remain in the corner, he surveys the area and gets to know the lay of the land. He pays critical attention to detail and mounts a credible defense. His expertise and his prowess have been emboldened by his experience. And in a world where you can easily get lost in legal jargon and meanings, he aids in navigating you and explaining things in terms that make sense. I knew that in order to seek justice, I needed to find more than an attorney, but a legal expert who saw me, who was willing to empathize, yet take down my concerns with expert marksmanship. There will never be enough words to express my gratitude for Patrick (and The McLain team) his authenticity and his willingness to go beyond the extra mile have literally saved me.

This is not simply a job to him it s part of him. Over 2 yrs of my life has been a battle with the Air Force over nothing more than accusations. Patrick has been with me the entire time. He did not tell me I was going to win and be free and live happily ever after. Instead he said I can t guarantee the outcome but I will fight for you and your family like a Lion! and he did. I was acquitted on all four charges. His precise knowledge was key in the courtroom as this is his battleground and he knows it. He took control of the court and completely tore the government apart. Patrick saved me from the governments 8 attorneys and endless resources. Patrick and his family have been a blessing to me and my family.

As a military academy cadet, our son was facing a sexual assault charge during the height of the epidemic of such accusations in our country. His case also coincided with a national news story regarding how the academy was addressing these types of issues within the academy and the resulting shake up of their sexual assault prevention office. Patrick McLain put his heart and soul into our sons case. He worked seamlessly with our sons assigned military legal team and utilized every available resource to understand the true facts of the case and bring these facts to light. McLain brought with him his in depth legal knowledge, his military expertise, and a team of top legal experts. McLains courtroom dialogue and presentations were precise and masterful. He broke down the prosecutions presentation and replaced it with a detailed timeline and testimonies which clearly defined an accurate picture of events. He enabled the jury to see our son as the truthful and honorable cadet that he is. The service that we received was worth infinitely more than the price that we paid. In spite of the perfect storm described above, our son was acquitted of the charges brought against him. Today we are celebrating our sons freedom and the victory provided to us by Patrick McLain.

Patrick, and team, have been by my side for the better part of a year. I hired him in response to an alleged article 92 violation geared towards fraternization. Frankly, I was the subject of a witch-hunt and my command had made me out to be some kind of super villain. Being stationed in Japan there is a 14-15 hour time difference, but anytime I called someone would answer the phone. I have had attorneys before that were next to impossible to get in contact with after I hired them, not the case with Patrick. Which went a long way in making me feel confident in my decision to hire him. Patrick is one of the few attorneys that will set a fixed, not hourly, price. I did not have to pay him per email or phone conversation, which is typical with other law firms. The price for his services was well beyond fair, especially when you tally up all the hours he put into my case. Patrick never pushed me towards a decision. He would present options and weigh pros and cons with me. Whatever choices I made, he was ready to formulate a battle plan. Before going to court, he would run me through possible courtroom scenarios, which paid off during the trial. When we had our day in court, I could not have gotten a better outcome. He kept me from losing my rank, my honorable discharge and my money. Best of all, I finally felt vindicated, which was the most important. Lastly, I would like to thank Michael McLain (office manager) for answering the phone when I would call at 3 in the morning.

I really enjoyed working with him and his paralegal. If I ever need another lawyer and Mr. McLain can handle the issue, he will be the first one I call.

I highly recommend Patrick as a military lawyer. He will do everything he can to help you. He wont just tell you what you want to hear and take your money. If you ever find yourself in the position to need a military lawyer, its worth the money to hire Patrick.

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 is are dotted and ts 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.
