Anita P Patel

I never thought that I would have to hire a defense attorney; however, when I, for the first time in my life, learned that I was facing criminal charges, I called Greg Caplan who after I explained my situation about a petty theft charge, he quickly urged me to call Anita Patel. He convinced me that A...nita is the best lawyer out there across the board. He was right! Anita will get you the best result possible in your situation. She will advocate for you to ensure the best outcome. In my situation i recently got in trouble with the law with a petty theft charge. It was an extremely stressful and nerve-wrecking situation. Anita helped me through it every step of the way. She is extremely professional, beyond what you would expect. She always answered my calls and addressed my concerns right away. She took so much time to thoroughly explain my situation to me and all the possible outcomes. Her immediate support and attention helped calm me during a time of distress. She is a lawyer whom you can trust will have your best interest and fight for it. On my court date, she was very supportive, and walked me through everything step by step. She is very well respected by the judges, DAs and all legal personnel with whom she works. Her charm and personality work to your advantage to ensure the best outcome in your situation. Not only that, but Anita remained loyal and committed to me as a client even after my court appearance. She advocated on my behalf to get more time of my case. She even represented me on my second court date since i was unable to make it that day. Thanks for that Anita. She worked against all odds and was self-motivated to follow up and follow up and use her charm and professionalism and all the skills that make her a great lawyer to get me the result I needed. She convinced the DA to charge me from petty theft to trespassing. I was amazed by this and happy. Bottom line is, Anita is smart, professional, loyal, passionate and result-driven. What else could you dream of in an attorney? Seriously, if you're in any trouble with the law and need peace of mind, contact Anita Patel. She will take care of you 100%.

I didn't know much about the law and could have been manipulated by the police and put in a terrible situation from the start. Anita took the time during our initial consult to explain the law, my rights, and my position. I was told what to expect and how to manage the situation. She was always easy ...to reach and quick to assist me. Throughout my case she continued to call me with updates on the status and searched whether charges had been filed. She protected my rights. Anita is professional, caring, reliable, and works hard for her clients! She has experience as a District Attorney so you can be assured that she knows what to expect with your case. Her initial actions ultimately prevented charges from being filed so I never had to make any statements or appear in court at all. I am very thankful that I had such a great lawyer defending my case!

I recently got cited for reckless driving in the San Fernando area by a cop that seemed to completely not be interested in what I had to say about the matter. I had to swerve out of a lane to avoid a car in my blind spot which made the cop believe that i was driving recklessly. In any case, I didn’...t realize that this was a misdemeanor vs. a regular infraction, and just went about it casually thinking i will have to go through traffic school to get it off my record. Luckily, I realized just in time that this was a more serious issue, and it dawned on me that i will be needing the help of an experienced lawyer in the matter. Luckily for me, i called Greg Caplan and Anita Patel to represent me. From the very beginning, both Greg and Anita were extremely pleasing and friendly to work with. They were able to accommodate me at the very last minute and were willing to take my case. They both walked me through the procedure, my options and the approach that they will be taking in my case. They helped manage my expectations around how this was going to work and my involvement in the procedure. Anita represented me in the courtroom on my appointed date, and was able to get a second hearing date (based on my work schedule agreed in advance). At the next hearing I was prepped in advance and was kept on “stand by” while she worked with the opposing counsel to reduce the misdemeanor charge to a couple of infractions keeping my record clean. She was able to confirm with me over the phone my rights and enter the final plea without ever going to court. I couldn’t have asked for a more convenient solution to the matter. She mailed all the necessary paperwork, and the docket to my home along with a brief summary of the proceedings and a reminder to pay my agreed amount to the court. I can’t think of a more responsive or detailed person to work with in such a matter. I would highly recommend Anita for your criminal defense matters.

Anita Patel provided me with excellent representation in my case. I was initially charged with both possession with intent and transport of a significant amount of controlled substances. She is a former narcotics prosecutor and very familiar with the ins and outs of the legal system. Having been a fo...rmer prosecutor, she knows and has a good rapport with the District Attorney involved with the case, and was able to get him to agree to allow treatment instead of the year in jail that the city had wanted. This outcome will allow me to make this a positive turning point in my life, instead of just wasting away in jail and being exposed to unhealthy conditions and violence. Anita was very attentive and communicative throughout the process and was able to answer my questions, and seemed to genuinely care about my well-being and the outcome of this case.

I strongly recommend Anita Patel to anyone needing a defense against criminal charges. I had been charged with felony burglary, and she was able to obtain a reduction in the charges to misdemeanor petty theft. She paid close attention to my case, responded to my calls and emails promptly, and ...kept me well informed. She wrote an excellent letter on my behalf to the District Attorney. She is experienced, professional, and trustworthy. Above all, I felt she truly cared about me as a person as well as a client. I recommend her with no hesitation whatsoever to those needing a strong criminal defense.
