Anita P Patel

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.

Recently I was involved in a very complicated situation, a situation in which I thought I wasn’t going to get out so easily. But Anita Patel, my defense attorney and my hero, she help me to resolve my case. She is very professional and she is always available. If I have any concerns, I either can ...call or E-mail her. She always, respond to me in a timely manner. I felt very comfortable talking with her about the case, and felt free to ask her anything. Before the court date, She call and advice me how to dress and explain to me step by step about what is going to happen at the court. Anita Patel managed my case with professionalism, and thanks to her knowledge and experience I get my case Expunge early.I am very happy with the outcome, and I am more than grateful with Anita Patel. I would recommend her to everyone.

Case represented: Violation of probation (misdemeanor criminal offense), bench-warrant for arrest with a bail of nearly $50,000, with various extenuating complications Anita Patel performed what seemed to be impossible. She was able to quash my ~$50,000 bench-warrant and had the judge extend my ...community service date of completion. This was no easy task, given that the judge (for whatever reason) did not like my 'disposition' or my persona, and was thoroughly unimpressed and disinterested in the documents that demonstrated (what I had thought) would be compelling reasons to quash the arrest warrant and grant the extension. Initially, it seemed as though the judge had already made up his mind (NOT in my favor) and appeared extremely reluctant to grant an extension or quash the warrant. Ms. Patel exhibited sincere concern, and after much debate, was somehow able to reason with the judge and convinced him to (albeit rather begrudgingly) quash the bench-warrant and grant the extension. I have never seen an attorney express such sincere concern on behalf of their client, and if represented by my former ultra-high priced attorney, I would have likely been incarcerated on the spot. Before entering court, Ms. Patel and I were both entirely unaware that the judge had a strong pre-existing grievance against me/my case, yet she was able to rapidly and effectively adapt her strategy to suit this unexpectedly hostile environment. Ms. Patel was not only highly adept and professional, but also very personable, understanding and sincere (something I’ve yet to encounter with previous attorneys). Her prices were more than reasonable, far less than my previous ‘high-profile’ attorney, yet vastly superior in quality/care/outcome. I would highly recommend her services and am still quite amazed as to the favorable outcome of the hearing (particularly in light of a unexpectedly adversarial judge). The money could not have been better spent: A five-star rating without question.
