Mr. Bates was very helpful answering questions to help our family decide if we needed to move forward with legal representation. His concern for our situation, not ever having met us was professional but yet he had empathy for what we were going through. He spent a good amount of time, giving advice and direction so that we are better able to make a decision if we need to retain legal council or not. Without hesitation, I would retain Mr. Bates to represent us , and feel like he definitely has his clients best interest first and foremost. If there were more than five stars to give, I would do that. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️Posted on Google B OZ7 November 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.

I had the good luck, fortune, and pleasure to be represented by Patrick Bates of the Law Firm, "P. Bates Law, PLLC", in a business dispute with my partners in a small to medium size business in Houston, TX. When I first approached Patrick with the issues I was facing, he knew immediately that I had a case and was very professional and accommodating with walking me through each step of the process. Regardless of his busy schedule, Patrick always made time to answer my questions, help me understand situations of my case that were "above my head" of understanding, and from time to time, "walk me off the ledge" when feeling distraught. In the end, Patrick was able to assist me with the business dispute with my now former partners with a more than accommodating resolution. The best of the best! I will always be thankful for my new relationship with Patrick, and he will always be my go-to for any future legal business advice and representation!Posted on Google Kevin Bosworth12 September 2025Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
