Ever since earning my J.D. from Texas Tech, I've been serving individuals, families, and businesses in north Texas with practical and purposeful guidance in bankruptcy. I've always enjoyed helping others when life gets tough; sometimes, we all just need someone in our corner to help us move forward.
Never underestimate the power of a plan. When you seek my guidance in bankruptcy or debt resolution, we will work together to plan for positive, lasting change that can help you get back on your feet & face the future. No matter your background, a serious financial issue can appear out of nowhere. A sudden expense, a loss of a job, a medical emergency: these things can throw a wrench into anyone's plans.

An AV Preeminent Peer Review Rated attorney by Martindale-Hubbell, Patrick Swindell focuses on bankruptcy law and civil litigation. He is a native of Amarillo and is very active in his community.

The financial curveballs of life can hit you unexpectedly and prevent you from meeting your financial needs, paying bills, and other monthly expenses. When facing financial adversity, filing for bankruptcy may be one of the available options to achieve debt relief and get the financial fresh start you need.
The standard that used to define a good credit score is using 30% or less of one's credit card limit at any one time. In Texas, 30.2% of adults are using 75% or more of their limit. That percentage makes the state the sixth highest in the country. If you are using too much - or all - of your approved credit, you are obviously not alone.
If you have been struggling to keep up with your monthly bills for a long time, you might have reached a point where you want to explore your options for getting ahead financially. Perhaps you have tried debt consolidation loans or have been looking for a job that pays more. Sometimes, those are not enough.
Foreclosures are going up, and it can be a stressful time. I know how difficult going through a foreclosure can be. When money is tight, everything seems to get more complicated. If you fear that your house will be foreclosed, or you are already going through this tough process, I am here to help you understand the situation and what to expect.

This is a long post but Mr. Patrick Swindell did so much for me. He is AN AMAZING and incredible patient lawyer. I had an extremely difficult case where the court costs was over $500,000. I had no way of figuring out what to do and the opposing lawyers were threatening and not responsive to my requests.
Mr. Patrick Swindell took it on himself to call these lawyers himself for three days nonstop even when they were aggressive towards him. Because of him, the case against me was taken care of and my bankruptcy case was resolved so quickly. Go with him, he’s a great amazing lawyer that doesn’t

We filed back in 2015 and our experience was made so simple and hassle free! Since then, I have had to call in, on occasion, and request documentation or get assistance with situations related to our case and every single time the firm’s employees are pleasant to deal with. They always respond in a timely manner and are eager to help in any way. If you’re in a situation where bankruptcy is the necessary answer, I very highly suggest you deal with Patrick at this firm. You cannot get better service and where else!

This was the first time I have ever been in this situation and Mr. Swindell made everything extremely smooth. He worked very hard with one of my debtors and was absolutely amazing and handled it. I suggest you call him if you ever need a good bankruptcy attorney who will go above and beyond to help you.

I would highly recommend Patrick Swindell. He is very professional, knowledgeable, and refreshingly kind. During one of the most difficult seasons in our life, he worked hard to help give us a fresh start. Even when our case became complicated, he didn’t give up. He and his staff are prompt to respond to any questions or concerns. If you want someone you can trust, that will work hard to see your case through to the end, he is your lawyer!

During a difficult time in our life, Swindell Law Firm was suggested to us by a friend who'd walked her journey with Pat and his team a few years before. We got much more than we expected. Patrick and Samantha were both compassionate throughout the journey and attentive to our fears that come along with the process. Chelsea was always a friendly face! I can't say enough about the entire staff at Swindell and I would highly recommend them to walk your journey with as well.
