Awesome lawyer!

Mr weiland helped me out with a serious criminal charge in Dupage county. He clearly knew everybody in the courthouse including the judge! The case was reduced to a misdemeanor and I could not be more pleased. When other lawyers said it couldn't be done, Patrick weiland got it done. Thank you, sir!!...

DUI in Lombard

I hired Patrick and Dominick in September 2013 after a second DUI charge. I thought my life was over, Dupage county and Lombard didn't really have their stuff together and they found holes in the arrest in the night in question. After a year in a half of continuances Patrick and Dominick got the ca...se dismissed. But Dupage decided to re-file and charge with the 6 charges again. This took another 6 months almost 2 years of dealing with this. July 17, 2015 the bench trial finally comes I get my date in court again. Dominick just torn apart the arresting officer and made her, the Lombard police department, and DuPage look dumb is putting it nicely. On the grounds of independent recall a term used to dismiss my case and no conviction and no re-filing or recharging me ever. Walked out with tears of happiness and joy. Thank you Patrick and Dominick anybody that has a DUI hire this two it was money well spent.

DuPage DUI lawyers extraordinaire

My DUI caused me tremendous worry and anxiety. Finding the right lawyer was stressful. I was lucky to select Dolci & Weiland as my law firm. Mr. Weiland made me feel extremely comfortable with his knowledge of the DUI process and what I could expect in court. After listening to the facts of my ca...se, he assured me that I would not only survive the process, but, that in all likelihood, I would never have a DUI on my record. Within just a few court dates, I was thrilled when he told me that my case had been dismissed. I would 100% recommend Dolci & Weiland for your DuPage DUI case.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
