"I am a farm boy with an education," says Rick L. Pendergast, a local attorney and owner of Pendergast Law Office, who specializes in Real Estate Law, Estate Planning, and General Business Law.

Rick L. Pendergast has been in the Eau Claire area for nearly all of his life, and he has been practicing law for 28 years. His welcoming, comfortable office, located in Downtown Eau Claire, reflects his "open door" perspective.

"I try to make the law understandable to my clients," Rick states. "It doesn't have to be a mystery."

And it's as simple as that. Rick builds long-term relationships with his clients and feels that trust and integrity are key in the practice of law.

"The tradition of law is one of protection and advocacy; dealing with the interests of real people. Drafting their deeds, preparing their wills, or setting up their businesses. There is nothing I enjoy more than developing long term relationships with my clients in order to help them over the course of their lives."

Not only is his law practice unique in its approach, but the fees at Pendergast Law Office are affordable.

"I understand how hard people work for their money, and I pride myself on fair and reasonable billing for services," says Rick.
