Patrick Meehan, who until recently served as United States Attorney for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania, first began his public service work in 1995 when appointed District Attorney of Delaware County, Pennsylvania.

As U.S. Attorney, Patrick pioneered the Anti-Terrorism Task Force, which has since been touted as a national model for the prevention of future terrorist attacks.

His most recent accomplishment, the "Route 222 Corridor Anti-Gang Initiative," brings together faith-based and community efforts with local, state and federal law enforcement to establish safer neighborhood conditions across five cities and four counties in Pennsylvania.

On July 21, 2008, Meehan joined Conrad O'Brien Gellman & Rohn, P.C. where his focus will be on representing multi-national corporations and individuals and a wide range of corporate commercial litigation.

Meehan graduated from Bowdoin College in Maine and earned his J.D. from Temple University.

A Philadelphia native, he is a third-generation Irish-American with roots in Co. Mayo and enjoys the sounds of the contemporary Irish band the Corrs.

He is married with three children.
