Attorney Patrick Donovan is the one you want to go with, without hesitation! From our first meeting, he was prepared and gave me solid advice and SOLID representation. You just know you're in good hands...anytime I had a question for him throughout the process, he was extremely responsive and knowle...dgeable. I feel I received the best representation possible and I'm very grateful I met Patrick Donovan. In addition to being a defense attorney, he is a former ADA so he knows the court system from both sides which is why I wanted to hire him initially....smart move!

I highly recommend Attorney Donovan as a defense lawyer for criminal matters. He came to my arraignment after I called him only the night before (I had called several lawyers and he was the only attorney to call me back that morning). His fees are reasonable and he is very knowledgeable. He took t...he time to explain what I needed to know and had an excellent plan for how to handle my case. He was very understanding about my situation and made me feel confident about relying on his expertise. He was able to negotiate effectively with the prosecutor, but I believe he would have been very tough in defending the matter at trial if we had needed to get that far--we didn't because he negotiated an excellent deal.

I hired Mr. Donovan based on reading reviews on this site and I was not disappointed. I had received a serious traffic citation (passing a stopped school bus with its lights on), which I did not do, but I did not know the first thing about traffic court. Mr. Donovan was accessible, explained how the ...system works, outlined our approach, and alleviated much of my stress about the process. The hearing went quickly and the case was resolved in my favor. I would have fared poorly without Mr. Donovan's participation at the hearing.

Patrick Donovan represented me for a DUI case. He was very knowledgeable about the courts, the legal process, and the options. He was also very devoted and willing to go the extra mile. My case had a flat fee yet he didn't try to rush the case to resolution to get it off his plate. Even when I go...t impatient and frustrated, he talked me into remaining patient, reminding me the easiest option now isn't the best outcome long-term. He worked through the legal process and with the court personnel to resolve my case, ending with a plea instead of a conviction. My only issue was that I was not very familiar with the process/jargon, so at times wasn't sure where I stood or what happened next. However, when I reached out to Patrick with my questions/concerns, he took the time to walk me through them. He was great at discussing the situation, the hurdles, and the outlook. I would recommend him to anyone needing an attorney, particularly in those districts in which he most works.

Patrick helped me to recover significant damages as the victim in a personal injury case. Our initial discussion left me comfortable with the direction he was taking my case. Subsequent discussions only increased my confidence in him. He promptly returned all questions I had and raised issues an a...verage attorney would have overlooked. I was more than satisfied with his services and would highly recommend him in the future.
