At our defense firm, we are proud to be known for our:
- Winning streak: Any law firm can take as many cases as possible, but it takes a truly talented legal team to consistently win those cases. At Law Office of Patrick J. McLain, PLLC, we proudly boast our extensive history of successful case results that includes hundreds of wins. Even further, though, we are proud of our high win rate; in some types of cases, we have never suffered a loss.
- Full service: As a full-service law firm, we can handle every part of your criminal defense case. From start to finish, we can manage it entirely in-house. We have a private investigator on staff, and along with our associate attorneys and paralegals, we are highly prepared to fight for you.
- Deep resources: The team players outside our law office also matter. We employ the best experts across Texas and the country in defending our clients. Our deep resources and extensive network allow us to better prepare defense cases and stand up to a prosecution that is backed by government money.
- Powerful defense: How strong should your defense be when you’re charged with a serious crime? The only acceptable answer to our team is “as strong as possible.” We know how to gather and employ evidence and work with witnesses throughout all legal processes. With his Marine Corps background, Attorney McLain goes on the offensive when defending a client, catching the other side off-balance.
- Client care: In the Marine Corps, Attorney McLain learned that communication is key. The lesson applies to our work as criminal defense attorneys. We ensure you feel seen and heard by frequently updating you about your case, including you in our defense process, and respecting your goals as your case progresses. We do this job because we care about the people we represent, and we want you to have outstanding client services.
- High value: Our fees reflect the greater care and effort you receive from our law office team. We are committed to keeping our attorney fees competitively priced and to exceeding your expectations as our client. We want you to appreciate the real value you get from our legal representation.
Meet Attorney Patrick J. McLain
Attorney Patrick J. McLain is a former federal prosecutor and a retired Marine Corps military judge. The many years he spent in these roles have given him a unique perspective that few other defense attorneys in the country can boast.

When he takes a case, he sees himself as not just an attorney and advocate, but as the only person who can help you out of a difficult and often unfair situation.

No Marine Goes Alone – Meet the Team
What is stronger than one award-winning and case-winning trial attorney? An entire legal team of them. At Law Office of Patrick J. McLain, PLLC, we acknowledge that any battle worth fighting is worth fighting the right way, which means never cutting corners and always giving it our all. We use a teamwork approach that creates a strong, united front for our clients.
Meet the team that Attorney Patrick J. McLain would trust to represent him if he ever needed it:
- Attorney Eric Durojaiye: Born and raised in Dallas, Texas, Attorney Eric Durojaiye takes immense pride in using his legal talents to defend the people in the community he has always called home. He started his career as a prosecutor but decided to move to the other side of the court, where he can use his former perspective to quickly dismantle prosecutions’ arguments from the inside.
- Attorney Brad Sauer: The only thing more decorated and impressive than Attorney Brad Sauer’s military career – he served as a judge advocate in the U.S. Air Force for 13 years and as a military defense counsel for 5 years – is his legal career. To date, Brad has worked on nearly 100 criminal trials, hundreds of criminal cases, and hundreds of administrative adverse action cases for military service members.
- Attorney Virgina Taborn: Senior Associate Attorney Virginia Taborn leads by example and from the heart. Throughout her extensive, three-decade defense career, she has earned a long list of major victories, but she has also always made time for pro bono work, such as volunteering with Lawyers Against Domestic Violence. If you want an attorney who you know authentically cares about your future, you’ll want Virginia’s counsel before any other.
