I am named to North Carolina Super Lawyers master list since 2012 and was listed in their Rising Stars category in 2009 and 2010.

Client Testimonials

Patrick McCroskey went to bat for me when some days I felt as if I could not even lift the bat. He is very good at taking the lead and does everything in his power to represent his client's interest. He looks out for the best interests of the children. If you are looking for passive legal council, then he is not your guy. He is very intelligent and proactive; I recommend him highly!
