Patrick has also served as an expert witness in matters of insolvency, fraudulent transfers, and similar topics.

Patrick currently serves on the board of directors of the Minnesota Chapter of the Turnaround Management Association and previously served on the board of directors of the Burnett County Medical Center and Wisconsin Indianhead Technical College.

He is a Certified Turnaround Professional (CTP) and Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE). As a certified fraud examiner, he has written articles on the topic, including “Inside the Mind of a Fraudster,” published by the Journal of Corporate Renewal in 2017.
