Highly trusted

After I had an accident, I was looking for a good lawyer, and After some searching, I quickly realized that finding a good lawyer is a big deal. And it turned out to be very difficult to find a good lawyer in my city. I received a letter in the mail from Baku Petel and called the number. From the fir...st words, I felt that I could trust the professionals who extended a helping hand to me. All my calls were responding all the time, all my questions were answered. There wasn't a single day to make me doubt. It took a little over a year for my lawyer to settle all the issues. But we followed a predetermined plan, and all the deadlines were agreed and explained. So it was easy for me to wait and understand what was going on. I received my check and I am very happy, I am lucky that we have such a professional team as Baku Petel.co nearby.

Efficient and Helpful

My little brother in college had a mental break and ended up with 5 charges including the state wanting to take his car. Mr. Patel was very efficient, answering calls and sending emails, whenever requested. Understand that you have to research and ask questions yourself to know what kind of service y...ou want. I would email him and his assistant day and night and have no issues with returning calls or emails. You do pay upfront but that’s the point here, you are paying for a service and this is how attorney fees work when you are dealing with a true professional. My brother ended up getting not guilty by reason of insanity after almost a year of Mr. Patel working with the states attorney and listening to our concerns as a family and fighting until the decision. I am truly grateful and thankful we hired him and would recommend to anyone who feels helpless in the court system.

Highly recommend his expertise

Mr. Patel took my case immediatley after hearing of the injustices. He fought tenaciously against the 4 class x felonies totaling a possible 240 years. He knew I was innocent and exposed the corruption of the truth and the lying by state officials. He more than won the case and corrected a wrong, h...e guided and supported us throughout the process. Before hiring any one else, Patel should be consulted. If you feel like no one else is listening, or it is a complicated or dangerouse case to fight or if you need civil litigation and help understanding the complicated process that is the legal-justice system, Patel in Urbana Illinois is the team to go to.
