Careful, professional, friendly and moral! Very highly recommended!!!

Three months ago, I was in "big trouble"_ as I though, when I got caught at Fry's Electric. I was struggle and really stressed because I still have school and future career, this could be the end for my future, seriously. I called many Attorney's offices and their quotes were out of my range, could n...ot afford. Then I found Lawyer Vijay from this website, his price is very reasonable and his attitude is everything! He is very professional and very knowledge, he listens and identifies the problem and honestly give all the possibilities. He actually did not just work on my case but helped me as well. For a student like me, monthly payment plan is affordable. The most impression is when I was so depressed and texted him at 3.30AM in the morning asking about the process, though he would not reply but he did. He really cares of his clients as written from previous reviews. He really made me feel safe and protective. Whichever letters or actions required from the county that I always asked him for correct directions. And he did a very good job! And now my record is CLEAN and I have peace of mind. Millions thanks to my Lawyer Vijay. This is my first and my last. Very bad experience but i am happy that I found Vijay. Very highly recommended!!!!!!

Best Lawyer for Petty Theft/Shoplifting in Santa Clara County

I worked with Vijay Dinakar for PC 484/485 petty theft case in Santa Clara County. This is my first misdemeanor and I am extremely shameful and naturally petrified. When I told my husband about this he told me to find a lawyer and take it as a lesson and move forward in life. I just googled and found... Vijay and one another high profile criminal lawyer in palo alto area. Met both of them...But immediately after meeting Vijay I wanted to go with him because of the details he cared to discuss with me, he was not judgmental, he cared to listen to my fears and concerns answered very patiently and explained something no other lawyer mentioned before.... Since I have a graduate degree and good job, he said he would personally discuss with DA of Santa Clara County presenting my resume and stating this will ruin my career and request the DA to give me a diversion program. Considering that I am a 30year old and the price of my theft is $260 I did not think this will be an option. Just like Vijay mentioned he was able to convince the DA to enroll me in the diversion program. I just finished my Shoplifting course and completed my 16 hour community service and have my case closed. I would recommend Vijay to anyone who is trouble and need a second chance to move forward in their life. He is very informative, talented, patient and very very responsive. I would text him constantly for all the silly questions and he promptly replied very patiently. Most important of all cost of hiring him is much cheaper than other attorneys for this work. I am so glad I was able to work with him and even though this incident leaves a bad memory in my life I am so glad I got a second chance and will make a better use of it. Thank you Vijay!

Excellent DUI Lawyer

Mr. Dinakar was able to help me get my FELONY DUI case filed as a misdemeanor. ( DUI with "injury"... solo car accident, minor injuries to my passengers only.) I highly recommend him for DUI cases. His initial consultation was excellent, and he made me feel comfortable throughout the process. He cl...early explained how the legal proceedings would play out, what my options were, and kept me well informed throughout. I highly recommend him.

Thank you so much for caring!

I'm H4 visa from India. I was cited for theft. I never did anything wrong in my life. I was so scared and depressed that I didn't know what to do. I found Vijay who saved my life. He was so caring. The case was not filed so my H4 was again approved. Very smart attorney!

Very great Criminal Defense Lawyer, and did an Excellent job!! Thank you!

Meeting him for the first time was a great experience. He is very knowledgable and informative and result oriented. He is on point and very understanding. He understood the whole case and got involved with it and immediately started and got to work. Getting into these cases is not good, but if anyone... needs help, I would highly recommend Vijay without any hesitations or second thoughts.
