Biography
Patrick W. Pedano is a Partner and Co-Founder of Family Law Partners. He
received his bachelor of arts, magna cum laude, with honors, from Syracuse
University’s College of Arts and Sciences and Maxwell School of
Citizenship and Public Affairs, double majoring in International Relations
and Economics. During his time at Syracuse, Attorney Patrick was named
the College of Arts and Sciences College Marshal and Convocation Speaker.
He received his Juris Doctor from Saint Louis University School of Law
where he finished in the top 25 percent of his class and was awarded the
School of Law’s Academic Excellence Award (highest grade obtained
in the class) in the field of Securities Regulation. While in school, Patrick
also participated in Trial Advocacy and advanced Moot Court.
Immediately following law school, Patrick began practicing in the area of
domestic litigation, and he has built his practice on providing quality
legal representation to his clients in all areas affecting the family.
After beginning his practice in both small and large boutique
family law firms representing clients in a myriad of family law litigation, Patrick
sought to establish Family Law Partners to provide clients with a holistic
approach to legal issues affecting the family. At the law firm, Patrick
and his legal partners seek to provide their clients with experienced
and affordable legal representation in all family law matters.
As a product of a split household and divorced parents, Patrick understands
how important it is to provide meaningful counsel during family law matters.
His parents got divorced when he was just 12 years old, with both going
on to remarry down the road. This allowed Patrick to get a firsthand
experience of blended families and the legal issues that they face.
Patrick’s stepparents brought children from previous marriages, creating
a truly unique family experience for him. He provides an insightful level
of support that clients can’t find at many other places, using his
background experience with these issues to help in a personalized manner.
