Good afternoon, I hired Patrick to represent me for a moving violation infraction in Barnstable MA. I was pulled over by Massachusetts State Police with lidar doing 79 mph in a 55 mph zone. Originally when I first spoke with Patrick prior to appealing my speeding ticket, he provided me with a lot... of knowledge and advice on how to successfully appeal my ticket. He directed me on what the first step of the appeal was, as well as the entire appeal process. I had planned on going to the court with Patrick but when the day of the hearing came up, I was unable to make an appearance. Patrick had told me he would really like my presence at the hearing as it greatly increased my odds of winning, however that was not an option in my case. He told me he would try his absolute hardest to appeal the ticket in my favor. I spoke to him shortly after the hearing with the GREAT news! He was successfully able to appeal my ticket. Not only did Patrick save me from having to pay for the speeding ticket, but he also saved me years of insurance increases. I am completely satisfied with Patrick's knowledge, professional skill and customer service. In the future, if I was to ever need a lawyer again I would definitely call Patrick Donovan!

I contacted Attorney Donovan shortly after I received a summons for an arraignment. The Commonwealth of Massachusetts had charged me with a serious felony, and misdemeanor which carried lasting consequences. Mr. Donovan discussed a plan of action with me that seemed simple and effective. Mr. Dono...van represented me multiple times in court, as the prosecution insisted on continuances. My second appearance in court resulted in the felony charge being dismissed. Mr. Donovan was obviously instrumental in the aforementioned dismissal, pointing out the lack of evidence, the "trumped-up" nature of the charge, etc. By my fourth appearance in court, a restraining order had been filed against me, in relation to the charges. Mr. Donovan fought for a dismissal of the misdemeanor charge, and was ultimately successful. Mr. Donovan then managed to expertly defend me in regards to the temporary restraining order. He questioned the plaintiff, and caught her in multiple lies. He requested that the restraining order not be extended, which the Judge agreed with. Ultimately, I walked away that day with exactly what I wanted, dismissal of all charges I had no criminal involvement in, and no restraining order. Overall, Mr. Donovan is everything I could ask for from an attorney. He provided expert legal defense, excellent advice, and was always available. Whenever I needed to speak with him, I was able to get in touch with him within 5-10 minutes, if not immediately. He maintained a pleasant demeanor and always had a positive attitude. His fee was extremely reasonable, especially given the amount of time and effort my case ended up requiring. I would recommend Patrick Donovan to anyone looking for a criminal defense attorney. Please consider him, you won't be sorry!

Attorney Donovan handled my criminal defense hearing in a professional, skillful and admirable manner. At our initial meeting, Attorney Donovan explained in detail his plan and goals for my case. I felt very comfortable being represented by such an honest and experienced attorney. We achieved the bes...t possible outcome for my case, and I cannot be sure I would have reached this outcome had I not hired Attorney Donovan. I knew I could trust Attorney Donovan to do his best for me, and I would recommend his services to anyone seeking a criminal defense attorney.

I'm a private investigator and consequently have had a lot of contact with many different attorneys on a wide range of matters. Pat Donovan was easily one of the easiest ones with whom I've worked. He found a creative solution to my problem and got me the result I wanted. And he did it at a reason...able price, even at one point dissuading me from taking him with me to court for one aspect of my case so I could save his fee. And he kept me in the loop throughout he whole process, picking up my call or calling me back soon every time I called him. I highly recommend him.
