Great Lawyer

She is professionally adept and makes a great lawyer. I strongly recommend her in defense cases.

Top Notch

Anita did an excellent job of managing my felony case. I found myself on the hook for something that wasn't really my fault and thanks to Anita my record is now clear. She's knowledgeable and proactive and because of that she was able to navigate my maze of legal issues in a way that made me fee...l confident in a favorable outcome for me. Hopefully I won't need to hire her again, but I wouldn't hesitate to if the need arises.

Endorsement for Anita Patel

Anita took a Felony Charge down to a Infraction. Her experience as a Prosecutor really helped I believe. She is caring, responsive, if she did not know the answer to one of my many questons, she would research and get back to me within 24 hours. Very glad we found her.

Excellent Attorney

Unfortunately, I found myself in a bit of trouble and was lucky enough to find Anita. I work in the legal field and am surrounded by very high caliber attorneys all day long and I know a good attorney when I meet one, and that is Anita. She is as intelligent as she is genuine. She is very well ver...sed in criminal defense and has many contacts with prosecutors, etc. from her years as a prosecutor. Any attorney can represent you, but what you want in a situation like this is your attorney to have the right contacts. You always have a better chance at a more positive outcome if your attorney knows the system and knows the people that run it, i.e., the judges and prosecutors. From the moment Anita took my case, she starting working, preparing a letter to the prosecutor and giving me a list of things to get done to help my case, things I would never have thought of. Another huge plus is she is always available, never too busy to reassure you, answer a question or follow up with her client. She kept me informed every step of the way, and worked very hard to obtain the very best outcome. Her professionalism is second to none and I would not hesitate to referred her or, hire her again. Finally, I would like to say that Anita treated me with kindness and respect which I will never forget. Do not hesitate to hire Anita, you won't find a better attorney.

An EXCELLENT choice in legal representation. A++

I came to Anita Patel in order to expunge a misdemeanor charge from my permanent record. She handled my issue promptly, professionally, and with genuine kindness. She really cares about her clients and works very hard to get the job done. My expungement wasn't an easy one. It was initially denied... by the courts, and I had no clue as to why. I spoke with a couple attorneys of this matter, however, Anita Patel was the first to approach this with a very positive and can-do attitude. She gave me hope when it seemed it was not possible. She was persistent with her efforts, and at the end I was granted an expungement. The bottom line is that Anita Patel is a FANTASTIC attorney. She has earned my trust, respect, and if the time ever came I would entrust her to represent me for any legal issue I may have. Thank you Mrs. Patel!
