SKJ Law Team

Patty has worked in various law offices in a variety of litigation roles since 1989 (she won’t allow me to do the math), when as a young bride she moved to Fayetteville, NC while her husband was stationed at Ft. Bragg.  While that career start was out of economic necessity, Patty found it was the perfect match for her talents and love of a challenge! Patty has assisted dozens of attorneys over the years--in and out of the courtroom. Planning for and implementing the visual presentations that juries now expect in the courtroom is one of her favorite challenges. Patty’s remembers—but doesn’t miss—trials requiring her to haul 30 or more boxes into the courtroom and hauling them back out again afterward. She has seen the advancement of technology that now allows her to leave 25 of those boxes at the office and happy for it! 

I met Patty almost 20 years ago when she supported me in a wrongful death trial in Springfield, Ohio. She has supported me since in the administration of my cases and other trials. She is a trusted colleague who has been indispensable to the success of our firm.

But Patty’s greatest personal accomplishment has been earning the title of proud grandma to her granddaughter and four grandsons ages 1-6. She’ll always prefer being outside rather than inside on a beautiful day, and hiking trails with her husband. I’m happy Patty took my call to help me set up my own firm and serving my clients. She’s a great asset to my practice and to my clients.
