Best lawyer around!

My name is Johnathan and recieved the services from Anita on 01/2017-1/2018. She helped me with all aspects of my case: what to do, where to go, who to talk to. She would keep up to date with me ensuring that I followed through on my obligations to the court, even when I was difficult to reach. She ...always kept pushing me and was a wealth of knowledge. Definitely got lucky with her and thankful for all her help. Would hire again.

If only all lawyers were like Anita...

I cannot express what a gem Anita is. I hired her last minute (the day before I was to appear in court!). I was fearful that no one would be able to help me so late in the game, but she took on my case and did so much work in one day. My court appearance resulted in better than hoped for results beca...use of who Anita is. Her diligent work ethic and warm and kind personality was rewarded because of her strong working relationship she had with the prosecutor. She followed up with a detailed summary of the court appearance within 2 hours of leaving court! She doesn't just do excellent work, she is truly a kind soul. She made me feel taken care of beyond the scope of the case. That is hard to find in busy attorneys who are just out to make the quick buck and eager to close cases and send you on your way. If you need ANY legal representation, Anita is your woman. If only all attorneys were like Anita.

Professional and Passionate Lawyer

Anita Patel was the first lawyer that I consulted and chose her to represent my case, I chose her based on the consultation and advice that she provided on the my first visit. She did good assessment of my case and gathered as much information as possible to either get case reduced or completely dism...issed. She is also honest and nice, she was able to get my case completely dismissed. I would recommend her to anyone seeking defense attorney.

Great Knowledgeable Lawyer.Happy to recommend Anita

My court date was on 4/19/2017 and i am very happy with the outcome so writing this review and my experience with Anita Patel.I would highly recommend Anita Patel for her legal knowledge and experience,she is also a nice person and very understanding. Anita Patel was very professional and knowledge...able.Being a first time offender, i was extremely scared ,worried and stressed out. I was going though a very tough time having Family health issues and also this misdemeanor charge. I am also the only working person in my family.Anita put me at ease and got better results than i had hoped for.Before i decided to go with Anita i had searched online and spoke with around 8 different lawyers before i spoke with Anita. Based on what other lawyers told me i was looking for jail tern for at least 2 days, community service ,vehical being taken away.But i did not get any of this.I was very happy with the outcome . I called Anita the first time on a sunday and Anita answered the call.I explained the whole situation to her.After the first phone conversation i knew that i had to go with Anita .She took time to meet me in person the following day . Anita answered all my questions,kept me informed ,kept me calm,reminded me 2 days before the actual court date to be there before 8:30 am.On the court date Anita was already there at the court house waiting for me at 8:20 am . Thank You and God Bless.

Passionately defended my case

Anita was a great help with my case. I had many questions and concerns when I first contacted her. I was also very scared of the outcome that was looming over my head. She was able to run down different scenarios and make me feel comfortable with the situation with full comprehension of her ideas. Th...roughout the process she had many ideas to win the case and she took caution not to rock any judge's boats to ensure what was best for me. I was especially impressed that when one small thing did not go our way she was more upset about it than I. Any time Anita wanted to try something, she involved me to make sure I was in agreement and comfortable, without a doubt I trusted all of her decisions. I would have never won my case without her and the decision to hire her was 100% the right one.
