''Many thanks for the fast, professional, and quality accompaniment at the Interior Ministry after we had a refusal in the elderly procedure for my mother-in-law. Attorney Patman filed a legal appeal to the tribunal in a very professional manner, already in the first hearing we received approval to continue the elderly procedure process at the Interior Ministry. At the first meeting at the Interior Ministry after the hearing, my mother-in-law received a work visa and a permit in Israel!! Of course we are staying with Michael the champion until receiving A5 and in general Israeli citizenship for my mother-in-law. We highly recommend attorney Michael Patman warmly, for any legal treatment you need he is the first to take!

''The best decision I made in my life was choosing attorney Michael Patman. I came to him during the darkest and most difficult period of my life when I started divorce proceedings, and my ex-husband constantly threatened to take my children away to avoid paying alimony!
Thanks to attorney Michael Patman who filed child support claims, visitation and parental responsibility (custody) claims, and property division claims regarding my house and car on my behalf. Throughout the process, he represented me with great patience, supported me, and guided me before every meeting or discussion.
After a challenging period, Michael managed to reach a comprehensive agreement with my ex-husband, which we naturally approved in the Rabbinical Court. Now my children and I are the happiest in the world!! Enormous thanks to you, Michael Patman, dear and best attorney there is!!

''I'd like to share my story, and take this opportunity to thank dear Attorney Michael Fatman again!
I came to Attorney Michael after receiving a divorce lawsuit, child support claim, and a partition claim from my ex-wife. Needless to say, I felt lost and pressured!! When I came to Attorney Michael, he gave me a lot of confidence and strength from the first moment, and thanks to his knowledge and professionalism, he managed to conduct wonderful mediation between me and my ex-wife. He represented me with sensitivity and great patience. He prepared a comprehensive divorce agreement including child support and full partition while protecting my rights, my vehicle, and savings that were important to me.
He is the highest level attorney I have met in my life, and of course accompanied me until the divorce agreement was approved in court and receiving the get.

''We would like to highly recommend the lawyer who represented us in a difficult procedure with the Ministry of Interior regarding the elderly procedure for my mother. We are a family from Colombia where my mother was left alone. We started a procedure at the Ministry of Interior and it was very difficult for us. When we met Attorney Michael Patman, we met a guardian angel who helped us with the elderly procedure at the Ministry of Interior in the most professional, good, and efficient way. He represented us with great patience, supported us through all stages until we brought my mother to Israel. After my mother arrived in Israel, Michael helped us with her visa, documents, and notary services. He accompanied us throughout the procedure to arrange my mother's status, and finally, we succeeded in completing the family unification procedure at the Ministry of Interior! The best and most professional lawyer that exists on earth!

''Before I tell you about my case, I'll preface by saying that I first met with attorney Michael for a consultation. From the first few minutes, I understood that I had arrived at a law office of a different caliber. He gave me confidence and calm that all problems could be solved, and that he had the ability, knowledge, and power to do so. Indeed, that's how it was. Michael represented me against my ex in a paternity suit. At first, my ex fought against me, and fortunately, Michael speaks Russian and helped me through the entire court process for the paternity claim, assisted me in difficult conversations with my ex, and finally accompanied me to the hospital for a paternity test, helped me with the required documents, and assisted me with the Ministry of Interior to register my child. I don't have enough words to thank you!

It's important to note that his entire team is simply amazing; they always respond immediately. I have never seen such a client-oriented approach from lawyers. Michael managed to correct all the mistakes of previous lawyers, and with him, we felt victorious. We have Israeli citizenship!
