Ramy Aqel

I know Ramy for about two years as he took of my personal injury case. And trust me, I am very happy to say that there was NOT A SINGLE TIME when he turned me away. Rather, I have always found him friendly and helpful in anything I needed throughout my two years ranging from finding me a physical the...rapy place, dealing with the insurance company, answering my questions, you name it! And this is the truly amazing fact when I knew my attorney cares about me and is acting accordingly with full responsibility. I am very happy with everything he’s done for me. Recently we settled the case and very satisfied with the result.

One of the best and most honest lawyers. Wish most lawyers are like this. I got to know Mr. Ramy Aqel and he was very honest from the beginning. Very transparent, honest, and caring. He cared a lot about my case without cost and a complicated legal issue was solved very easily. I was hopeless after t...alking to other lawyers before him. I was completely devastated with what others lawyers have told me and how they treated me. I highly recommend Mr. Aqel for all legal issues.

After scrupulously consulting several other attorneys, I retained and entrusted Ramy Aqel to resolve a challenging (and pressing) criminal legal matter that was impeding immigration proceedings for my wife. Ramy was initially very pragmatic regarding the case, as were the other attorneys I consulted,... but after diving more deeply into the details, Ramy expressed genuine empathy and an openness to the possibility of achieving a desired outcome that was against the odds—important qualities that were lacking with the other attorneys. The case was multifaceted and required an attorney that was able to navigate the complexities of a case that intertwined both criminal law and immigration law. After our initial consultation, I felt well-informed regarding the process and confident regarding Ramy’s willingness and ability to overcome the legal obstacles. The primary obstacle was convincing the judge the case had merits to justify an exception to the statute requiring the defendant to appear in person to resolve an active warrant. We reside in South Dakota. More problematic, however, my wife suffers from a post-traumatic psychological disorder as a result of being a victim of human sex trafficking when she resided in New York City. Returning to New York City would have risked triggering a harmful post-traumatic episode. Ramy collaborated closely with me to develop my wife’s case and he argued her case successfully. The judge characterized the case as “unusual and exceptional” and subsequently ruled to allow Ramy to appear on my wife’s behalf. I understand exceptions to this statute are rare. The cost to retain Ramy to litigate this difficult case was very fair, but the outcome was priceless. In addition to beating the odds to resolve the active warrant, Ramy expeditiously negotiated favorable terms with the District Attorney, appeared twice more before two judges, and ultimately got the charges dismissed on an extremely short timetable. I am a person who normally does not sacrifice the time to provide unsolicited reviews for services I receive, but in a case such as this, when the service received is truly exceptional, I am happy to do so knowing others will benefit. My wife and I feel very grateful--and very fortunate.

Excellent attorney with superb advocacy skills. Mr. Aqel did a great job on my criminal case. He got all (false) assault charges dismissed. We did not even have to show up to court. Mr. Aqel was also very understanding of the sensitivity involved in my case due to my immigration status. He was very p...rompt with me, answered all my questions, and clearly explained every step of the case. Mr. Aqel is very knowledgeable and confident which was very helpful throughout the process. My life is changed for the better and I am a free man without any criminal convictions thanks to this excellent attorney. Highly recommended.
