Knowledgeable Santa Barbara Personal Injury Attorney

Providing large-firm experience with a small-firm touch

At the Law Offices of Robert S. Patterson, we provide our clients the best of both worlds — the legal knowledge, trial experience and research capabilities of a large firm plus the personal attention of a small firm.

Robert S. Patterson founded our firm in 2004, following a successful 20-year career with a large, prestigious firm of Santa Barbara lawyers and six years as a public defender. His objective was to more personally help victims of accidents and negligence.

Our Ventura and Santa Barbara personal injury attorney and legal team understand the serious consequences that accidents can have. We stand by your side throughout the accident’s aftermath, ensuring your long-term needs are met. And we meticulously prepare your case and fight for your right to compensation for both the immediate and potential long-term damages.

Handling accident cases involving automobiles, motorcycles, trucks and bicycles

Accidents involving cars, trucks, public transportation vehicles and motorcycles are a leading cause of death and injury in California. Our law firm handles motor vehicle accidents and most other types of personal injury cases in Santa Barbara and Ventura, including:

Back injuries
Bicycle accidents

Motor vehicle accidents
