Mr. Patrick J Silva.

Back in April 2016 I got a DUI. I was scared didn't know who to talk to, who to hire. Hiring a lawyer isn't that easy. I talked to many to help me with my situation but they all treated me like a case number and a money sign. I still felt like a criminal and no one was there to help or explain what c...ould happen. I gave it one last try with Mr. Silva. The amount of stress he took off my back was amazing. The fact he care enough to know every plan I had for my future to protect it. This made me feel great, I found someone to help me out and protect all items at cost. Not just that he helped me understand the situation. I gained confidence with Mr.Silva in less the 5 minutes. Every other lawyer I spoke did not respond the way Mr. Silva did. I had no confidence in any other lawyer that I spoke too. Now almost a year later things he got the minimums for my first situation. Which is amazing I can still work and take care of the thing I have to. Right before we headed in the new year I got myself in another situation. Arrested on private property. The cops assume the worst and gave me a DUI because I left a bar parking lot. This time it was a different county. Scared once again, not knowing what the heck to do. I went down the list talked left and right to lawyers no one was helpful or understanding, I'm a person that has a job, but can't afford what they were asking for. I looked high and low. Then I though it wont hurt to contact Mr. Silva and his offices. As soon as I got in contact with Mrs. Silva I felt things were already in motion. The ultimate question is can he help me in a different county? I had a meeting with Mr. Silva and with in seconds I felt my second situation can be saved. I felt he will always fight for me and I'm not just case number or a money sign to them. I'm someone who once again needs there future saved. I'm not one to credit people if they just do their job. Mr. and Mrs. Silva go above and beyond for their client's. They have for me twice. They understood my financial needs, they understood my emotion stress. They understood that they were the only ones I trusted. In situations like these, you need to have a great team behind you, you need confidence in them, and most importantly you need to be able to trust them. I will forever recommend This gentlemen and his wife. J.A

Best Lawyer

I went to Patrick for advice on a warrant that I had and he not only gave me great advice but handled my case. He made me feel very comfortable and seemed like more of a friend than a lawyer. Thanks Pat

Excellent service

Had a consultation with mr. Silva regarding my sons dui. He looked up the court and the charges and gave us a couple of options. No pressure and no sales pitch, just solid advice. Will hire him for the case.

Patrick Silva is the best!

I had received a DUI last year and was referred to Mr. Silva by a friend who had known Mr. Silva to be an excellent lawyer. I contacted his office and he was able to set up a meeting with me(it was supposed to be his day off but he came in to have the meeting anyway). He reveiwed my ticket and took d...etailed notes on my memory of the night. Afterwards Mr. Silva assured me hed get right to work on the case. In no time at all I had received the whole police report in the mail from Mr. Silva's office along with a letter informing me that he had obtained the dash cam recording, and that he wanted me to reveiw the video surveillance with him. Together we watched the video and read through the report and he came up with a plan the met with my approval. All and all Patrick Silva attended court on my behalf 5 times, meaning I didnt have to go into a courtroom once, which was a huge stress relief! In the end Mr. Silva had gotten the court to agree on a plea bargain for me. At the end of the case, I was still in debt to Mr. Silva's office and was also dealing with financial difficulties. Mr. Silva graciously waived the remaining fee, saving my family greatly! I recommend Patick Silva to anyone who is looking for a professional lawyer who truly cares about the people he represents.
