Testimonials
A good result for a potentially tragic situation
My son was threatened by a mentally unstable person, and the legal system was very slow to deal with the problem. Mr. Patton followed up in a very timely fashion with evidence for the district attorney that allowed the police to take the party into custody and he is now in jail, and my son is safe.

Superb representation!
Brad explained the pros and cons of settling my case or taking it to trial. This was during a very difficult time in my life, and I appreciate his professional guidance! We settled, and I was able to move forward without that constant stress!

Great DUI defense
Brad did an excellent job managing my defense–I couldn’t have been happier. He did extensive due diligence digging into the specifics of my case, uncovering several hidden and helpful points, which he ultimately brought forward to negotiate a reduced charge and penalties.
Brad was a pleasure to work with and clearly demonstrated his expertise and knowledge in this area of law. He is well known and deservedly respected in the legal and courthouse community, which he leverages for the benefit of his clients.
I highly recommend Brad to anyone in this situation and have referred him clients already.

We hired Brad Patton to represent our son
We would highly recommend Brad Patton. He took on our son’s case, kept in close contact, and told us step-by-step what the process would be. He did what he promised and seemed concerned with not only our son, but the entire family and the outcome. In a challenging situation, he went above and beyond what we expected.

General Patton
Mr. Patton has handled several of my cases, ranging from D.U.I.’s to other serious matters. Each time he has dealt with everything very smoothly. His knowledge and experience in the courtroom and his reputation amongst his colleagues and peers are second to none. When you hire Mr. Patton, you are getting the Clint Eastwood of the Wild West. When he speaks in a courtroom people listen and show their respect. Trust me that goes along way with judges, district attorneys, and courtroom personnel. Do yourself a favor and at least sit down for a consultation. You will not be disappointed.

Like a nightmare transformed into a dream
Mr.Bradley Patton has only far exceeded my expectations in the most incredibly difficult time for my family and me. He pushed the envelope to the utmost limit only to achieve the greatest results possible. I’m only but wordless on how much I appriciation I have for this attorney at law, and I only would want his representation of his knowledge in the law/courts any day. For the smile my son holds, I thank you and respect your law firm in the utmost sincere way.
- Kelly
The best criminal defense lawyer in San Diego

My Lifesaver!
There’s not enough space to write all the great things I want to say about Mr. Patton. He is kind, patient, and reassuring (which is very important as you go through the legal process). He knows so many people in the legal system, and it was clear they had great respect for him. Judges repeatedly said he is one of the best attorney’s in San Diego. I would not have survived the legal process without him.
- Kathy
Outstanding Legal Service
Mr. Patton is an incredibly courteous, understanding, and experienced attorney I have been fortunate to hire. He explained all options patiently and explored routes to ensure I was given the best representation. The outcome was exactly how he portrayed and the communication throughout was above exceptional. You can see his experience shine just by how the courtroom full of his colleagues and government officials speak to him. I would recommend him for all of your legal services!

If your a good person that’s caught in a bad situation, then Brad is the man!
Last year I was charged with a case, and the odds were definitely against me. A good friend of mine referred Mr. Patton to me, and he took care of my situation just as he did for my good friends’ case previously! No shady lawyer business. He does the job and is well connected! Highly recommended in my book hands down!

Brad is the man
Hello, my name is Tane, and I had hired brad as my attorney when I was looking at some severe issues with the law. Brad took the case after we had talked, and he is very much so one of the best. All charges were dismissed, and I am so grateful I had the chance to meet him and for him to represent me in my case. Thank you so much, Brad, from the bottom of my heart. There are not any words that can describe how much he helped me through his process. I owe you my freedom. I wish you the best. Thanks again Brad.
- Tane
A Pro’s Pro
Mr. Patton did an outstanding job helping to resolve a rather complex case I sent his way. Despite dealing with a less-than-cooperative client, he kept his cool, and his steady handling of the case and spot-on advice led to the best possible resolution. I proudly recommend Mr. Patton!
- Jerome
Professional and Honest
I hired Mr. Patton for a Federal case in San Diego. I was dealing with an issue that could have affected my entire life, so I wanted to make sure I had the best representation possible. From the first time I reached out to Mr. Patton until a settlement was reached, he was always available. Whether I had a question, concern, or just needed something explained to me, he always took the time, whether over the phone or in-person to make sure I understood everything going on. Hiring Mr. Patton was a great experience and he got me an unbelievable result that I’m very thankful for. If you’re looking for professional, honest and great representation, I highly suggest contacting Mr. Patton.

Best defense money can buy
Not only was the outcome of my case far better than I could have ever dreamed it would turn out, but this man is very highly respected in the courtroom by all parties involved. If you have to go before a judge and have your fate decided, these are the hands you want to be in.
- Shaman
Good Man, Great Lawyer
Not only did Mr. Patton represent me well in court, he also kept me informed, thus helping me to understand all that was taking place throughout the proceedings. I would without a doubt recommend him to anyone who finds themselves in need of a great defense lawyer. Knowledgeable, smart, and down-to-earth. One of the best as a person and as a lawyer.
- Derrick
Best Lawyer
I recommended Mr. Patton. He was very helpful and reachable. He answered all my questions the best way possible, and I felt he really wanted to help me the best way possible. I will never get tired of saying Thank You Mr. Patton for all what you did for me.
- Julio
One of a kind lawyer
I have had two experiences in the past with lawyers, bad and worse. My expectations had dropped to a level where I felt it was senseless to seek advice from a lawyer. Sanders Patton was recommended to me by a friend whom I trust. And she did not let me down. I met with Mr. Patton and discussed a very sensitive but serious issue that my son was involved in. Without any hesitation, he listened, analyzed, advised and came up with a plan of action. He was knowledgeable about the law and aware of current community issues involving teens. He made my son feel comfortable in the knowledge that Mr. Patton could relate to his concerns and advice accordingly.
Mr. Patton has helped my family through a time that I would not wish on anyone. He went above and beyond and beyond to help us and I will be forever indebted to him.
- Anna, a Criminal Defense client
Excellent Defense in 2 cases in Superior Court
Sanders is not like other attorneys that rarely return your calls or emails. Sanders finds time to relate to all questions you may have about your case. There are no empty promises but realistic/pragmatic approach. Great thinking, great logic, and great results.
- Leon, a Criminal Defense client
Great attorney…
Mr. Patton was professional and very responsive to my needs and requirements. At the same time, he was compassionate, which is something a lot of attorneys lack. I have not had satisfactory experiences with other attorneys in the past, but this is one attorney I would recommend.
- Yvonne, a DUI client
Mr. Patton went above and beyond my expectations…Thank You!
I had an illegitimate restraining order set against me and won… I had a domestic violence case set against me and won… Being a criminal defense Attorney he even helped me out with two civil law suits… Sanders Patton is the best Lawyer I have ever known.

Sanders Patton, Esq. Fine lawyer.
Sanders Patton, Esq. represented me in a case that was very important to me. He prepared information for the judge that was irrefutable, and we won the case handily. He is a competent, pleasant fellow who knows his stuff and presents it to the client understandably and logically. He is a very good lawyer, and I would recommend him amply.
