Law Offices of Patricia Turnage, P.C.

11 stars if I could. Patricia Turnage is simply brilliant at constructing arguments and at helping people to get the justice they seek. She has been on the bench, she does a variety area such as contract disputes, personal injury, eviction, and she is exceptionally intelligent, empathetic, and helpful. Lawyers in general are not well-liked in our culture; Patricia is a rare gem- she is ethical and extremely skilled and competent. And she has a great personality!

A law office that only accepts cash in person in 2022? No thank you! I paid $450 for 15 minute consultation. I had to drive from El Cerrito to Hayward to pay the consultation fee. Following I agreed to retain her for $5000. She would only accept cash in person at her Hayward office. Refused outright to take any other form of certified payment. Why would a reputable attorney not want an electronic or digital transaction recorded? Seems knowledgeable but the cash only part? #SHADY

I had a personal injury case and was at my breaking point until I reached out to Patricia and her firm. I’m so glad I found her because she turned my entire situation around for the better. Aside from being the nicest lady I’ve ever met, she is an absolute workhorse and does her job at an extremely high level. Incredible lawyer, highly knowledgeable, kept me informed constantly on the status of my case, and was really professional. She took all the frustrations off my shoulder and I won my case thanks to her and her team. Phenomenal Attorney!

If i could give zero stars i would. Patricia told me that she would help me with a case. I was expecting a call from a claim adjuster, and Patricia told me to "not answer any questions when they called" and told me to tell the adjuster that i have "spoken to a lawyer and she will be in touch with them regarding the case" that was the last i ever heard from her. The claim adjuster called me, as i expected, and i told him exactly what she told me to say. I had not heard from her at all, so i called her office and left messages relentlessly. One of the times that i called a "receptionist" answered and blatantly told me that they had received ALL of my messages, including the message left by the claim adjuster, and said Patricia will be calling me back as soon as she got back to the office. Never happened. She never called me back at all. The claim adjuster called me about 3 weeks after, and made me feel and look completely ridiculous because he too never received a call back from her. She is a complete and total waste of time. Seems extremely passive aggressive in that she has a fear of some sort of directly just saying, "I CANNOT REPRESENT YOU." enjoys playing phone tag and wasting valuable time, which is completely unacceptable, especially when dealing with very serious claims and matters that require immediate and professional action. I do not recommend her in any way shape or form. Find someone else.

Patricia is a highly sought after attorney and I can see why. We just finished trial and let me tell you she's super knowledgeable of the court process. She made the other council look like an idiot! I see some folks have commented that she is less than 5 star quality but that is because they dont understand how difficult it can be when an attorney is in trial. All calls are answered by the staff and the attorney is left to be 100% focused on her trial. Which I would imagine as a client you would appreciate! Sorry if she cant be at everyone's beck n call and one can please everyone. If you are lucky enough to have her attention, she's definitely worth it. I trust and value Mrs. Turnage, she will be who I use until she retires.
