About George E.
George E. Patsis earned his law degree from Hofstra University School of Law in 1997. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in History from the State University of New York at Stony Brook, awarded in 1993. Those academic years positioned him to enter private practice and public service in the years that followed.
Patsis practices in New York and serves as the principal lawyer of his own firm, George E. Patsis, PLLC. Over the course of his career he has combined private practice with roles that arise through court appointment. He is an active member of the Suffolk County Bar Association, where he participates in local professional activities and maintains ties to the county’s legal community. His professional base remains on Long Island, and his practice reflects the procedural and substantive work typical of New York courts.
He holds multiple certifications from the New York State Unified Court System. Those credentials include certification as a court evaluator, guardian, lawyer for the incapacitated, referee, and receiver. Each designation authorizes him to accept specific types of court assignments. As a certified guardian and lawyer for the incapacitated, he has authority to represent or be appointed to protect the interests of persons found unable to manage their own affairs. As a referee and receiver, he is available to oversee aspects of litigation or take control of property and business affairs when directed by a court. The court evaluator certification permits him to provide neutral evaluations when ordered by the bench.
Throughout his practice he has handled matters that intersect with those court-appointed roles as well as standard civil litigation tasks. He manages the day-to-day operations of George E. Patsis, PLLC and arranges his caseload to accommodate both retained clients and court assignments. Colleagues and court personnel encounter him most often in proceedings that require appointed oversight or specialized evaluation. He concentrates his current practice on court-appointed roles and related civil matters in New York courts.
