Traffic Citation

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.

DUI Case

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.

Not responsible for Failure to obey, Failure to stop, Speeding.

I was stopped by a state police officer in a routine traffic stop where criminal charges were brought against me. I signed Patrick as counsel after a terrible experience with another attorney. Patrick took my case on a reasonable flat fee basis and I was found not responsible for all charges against... me, including a speeding infraction. Patrick is an empathetic and helpful person and a fantastic attorney, I would recommend him to anyone with civil or criminal charges against them. His communication with clients is excellent, he sets the proper expectations for results and his office is friendly and helpful when you do need to get in touch with Patrick.
