  • I would use your firm and specifically Patrick for any real estate transaction for which I need help in California.
    I am writing to let you know how impressed I am with both your firm and with Patrick Casey in particular. Patrick has now assisted me with 3 different agricultural real estate transactions, all of which have been complicated and challenging transactions. I have worked with your firm since 1990 and specifically with Patrick since 2007. The most recent transaction involved the purchase of 1,100 acres of prime agricultural ground for approximately $45,000,000. This was a complicated purchase that involved (i) a short due diligence period and hard closing date; (ii) the review and negotiation of amendments to the leases with the current tenants; (iii) negotiating with the seller about a post-closing lot line adjustment; (iv) addressing CSIP water and well issues; and (v) analyzing potential liability for certain leases and permits. Patrick provided prompt and thorough legal research and solid recommendations throughout the process. For example, I called Patrick one morning asking that we meet as soon as possible to review the proposed purchase agreement. Two hours later, I was in his office going over the agreement and that afternoon Patrick was revising a draft to send to the seller. Patrick was able to establish the trust of the Seller and their attorney which greatly facilitated getting the deal done while fully protecting our interests in purchasing the property. I would use your firm and specifically Patrick for any real estate transaction for which I need help in California. I give him my highest recommendation and look forward to working with him again soon.
