PATRICK APPLE

ATTORNEY

Patrick Apple practices in the area of criminal defense at Kreider Attorneys at Law. Born and raised in Guilford County, Patrick is a lifelong resident of the Greensboro area. A multi-sport athlete, he went on to play Division I football as a middle linebacker for the NC State University Wolfpack, choosing NC State over an offer from the United States Naval Academy.

After suffering a few injuries in college, Patrick ended his football career and turned his competitive drive toward new purposes. He graduated from North Carolina State University with a bachelor’s degree in history and returned home to Greensboro to attend Elon University School of Law. It was there that he discovered his passion for the law and renewed his deep respect for the U.S. Constitution and the rights it protects.

Patrick has practiced criminal defense in Greensboro for over ten years, representing clients in both District and Superior Court. He approaches each case with the same determination and strategy he brought to the football field, preparing thoroughly, thinking quickly on his feet, and fighting hard for his clients. What he values most is helping people navigate difficult situations and ensuring they are treated fairly throughout the legal process.

Outside of work, Patrick enjoys weightlifting, playing drums, reading history books, coaching football, and spending time with his wife and family. He stays active in his local church and enjoys volunteering at Mountain Top Youth Camp in Pinnacle, North Carolina
