February 5, 2025 at 7:56 amIn my case it was imperative that I find an attorney who would be strong against a formidable foe, which would be my former employer. I came across Patricia Barasch via referral from an amazingly well-respected labor attorney with whom I went to school, but is located in another state. Without hesitation he insisted I speak with Patricia and it would be clear as to why she would be perfect in my case. I found her to be a great listener, and one who held firm to my needs and demands, regardless of how difficult the opposition was. In the end we came to an amicable outcome and I was very happy with my representation. If you need a very, very good attorney, you needn’t look any further.

February 5, 2025 at 7:52 amI found Patricia to be straightforward, honest and helpful in dealing with a difficult issue. She took the time to listen and understand my situation, answered my questions and provided guidance in an area that was unfamiliar to me. A very good experience.

February 5, 2025 at 7:50 amMy experience with Schall & Barasch was absolutely amazing. Patricia Barasch showed consistent professionalism during the course of my entire case. For three years, Patricia showed empathy, integrity, and dedication. Both Richard and Patricia, would frequently collaborate to make sure that my case was going in the right direction. They were careful, calculated and most importantly caring. At no time did I feel unsupported. Patricia compassionately and with great care made sure both my wife and I were comfortable and happy with the decisions that were presented in settlement. In finality of the case, I feel vindicated and the wrongs that were done to me were substantiated. Both Patricia and Richard are to be thanked for their hard work, dedication and tenacity. I would highly recommend their practice to anyone who may need their services.
