Legal Guidance You Can Rely On

 Professional Background
Patrick became licensed in Illinois in 2005, and subsequently worked in two boutique Chicago litigation firms specializing in Landlord/Tenant lawsuits and general civil litigation. In 2010, Patrick moved to Minnesota and accepted a position as an associate attorney at Skjold Barthel Business Attorneys (later Skjold Parrington). Patrick worked at Skjold Barthel/Skjold Parrington from October 2010 to April 2012, during which time he was again involved in all manner of civil disputes and general business litigation. Patrick was involved in all manner of complex commercial litigation including mortgage foreclosures, homeowners’ insurance claims and litigation, securities litigation, FINRA arbitrations, shareholder disputes, insurance disputes, labor and employment issues and contractual disputes.

In 2012, Chris Parrington and Ben Skjold, the principals of Skjold Parrington, accepted positions at Foley Mansfield. As a result, on May 1, 2012, Patrick opened his own firm and became a solo practitioner focusing his practice on mortgage foreclosure defense and homeowners’ insurance disputes from the perspective of the homeowner. Since opening his firm, Patrick has also begun assisting individuals in declaring Chapter 7 and 13 bankruptcies, settling general personal debts, and helping clients to repair and better manage their finances.

Patrick’s practice now focuses on Mortgage Foreclosure and Bankruptcy and he has assisted dozens of Minnesota homeowners in saving their homes and achieving modifications of their mortgages. He has become a staple as a representative of borrowers in mortgage matters and has appeared before both the Minnesota Court and Federal Court on these matters countless times. He has been commended by clients, judges, attorneys acting on behalf of banks, and bank employees for his knowledge, understanding, responsiveness and communicativeness.

Professionally, Patrick’s passion remains assisting individuals in resolving their legal and financial difficulties.

Personal Background
Patrick grew up near Baltimore, MD and is the fourth of six children in a wonderful family with whom he remains very close. After a childhood and adolescence spent studying, reading, playing sports and debating with his elders (which left more than one adult demanding that he attend law school as soon as he was old enough to do so), Patrick attended The College of William & Mary in Williamsburg, VA. Amid occasional studying and more frequent shenanigans, Patrick met his future wife (Julia), managed to graduate, and finalized his applications to law school. After college, Patrick and Julia moved to Chicago, where they attended law school and graduate school, respectively. Ultimately, Patrick and Julia spent eight years in Chicago before moving back to Edina, MN where Julia grew up.

On January 3, 2014, Patrick and Julia were blessed with a beautiful baby boy, Grady Ryan.

When he is not working, Patrick can be found running, playing golf, reading, and generally enjoying Minnesota’s many parks and lakes with Grady and Julia.
