Im incredibly grateful for the outstanding help I received from Mr. Patel in getting my license reinstated. From the very beginning, they were professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely cared about helping me through the process. They explained everything clearly, kept me informed at every step, and worked diligently on my case. Thanks to their expertise and dedication, I was able to get my license back, which has made a huge difference in my daily life. I truly appreciate their hard work and commitment. I highly recommend their services to anyone who needs a reliable and effective attorney.

Response from owner

Thank you so much! I'm really glad we could help you get your license reinstated. I know how much losing your license affects your daily life—getting to work, taking care of your family, basic freedom. Walking you through the process and keeping you informed every step was important. Our experience handling driver's license reinstatement cases in Will County means we understand what the Secretary of State needs to see and how to build the strongest case. If you or anyone you know needs help with license reinstatement, DUI, traffic tickets, or criminal defense, we're here. Thanks for your trust. - Neil

Neil Patel did an outstanding job handling my case. I received a speeding ticket while driving my personal vehicle and was extremely worried about how it could affect my CDL and my livelihood. Neil was very straightforward, honest, and blunt about the situation from the start. He didn’t make promises, but he reassured me he would handle it. Today I received the news that my case was dismissed. I’m extremely grateful for his work and professionalism. If you’re looking for an attorney who is honest, direct, and gets results, I highly recommend Neil Patel

Neil Patel and his team were very professional and helpful. When i first contacted Neil, I was extremely nervous because I had never dealt with the court system before, especially for something as serious as an aggravated speeding ticket with a Class A misdemeanor. From the very beginning, Neil was very patient, professional, and took the time to clearly explain the entire process and what to expect. He walked me through his strategy and reassured me that he would do everything he could to achieve the best possible outcome. His experience and confidence immediately gave me peace of mind and made it easy to trust him with my case. Thanks to Neil’s hard work and expertise, he was able to reduce my aggravated speeding ticket down to a petty speeding ticket, which was a huge relief for me. I’m very grateful for his help and the way he handled my case from start to finish. If you need an attorney, I would absolutely recommend Neil Patel. He is knowledgeable, responsive, and truly looks out for his clients. Thank you, Neil and Chris, for your exceptional work!

The best lawyer i couldve asked for for my case! Very knowledgeable and attentive, i highly recommend! I had a heinous speeding ticket and neil got it taken care of thoroughly i cannot recommend him enough!

Response from owner

Thank you, Lillian! Really appreciate that. A 100 mph+ speeding ticket is one of the most serious traffic charges you can face—the State typically won't negotiate these cases and often asks for jail time. I'm really glad we could protect your license and keep your record clean. Our experience as former prosecutors handling aggravated speeding cases in Will County means we understand exactly what's at stake and how to fight these charges effectively. If you or anyone you know is facing serious speeding tickets, aggravated speeding, DUI, or criminal defense matters, we're here. Thanks for your trust! - Neil

I had an excellent experience working with this attorney. From the very beginning, he gave me clear, honest, and strategic advice about my case. He took the time to explain my options and what to expect, which made me feel confident and well-prepared throughout the process. What truly stood out was his professionalism and dedication. He showed up on time for every scheduled court date and was always fully prepared. He filed strong motions and carefully gathered every piece of information needed to present the best possible argument to the judge. His attention to detail and thorough preparation ultimately led to my ticket being dismissed. Communication was also outstanding. Every time I called the office, I received prompt and courteous responses. He and his staff were always helpful, patient, and willing to answer any questions I had. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, reliable, and committed attorney who truly fights for his clients. I’m very grateful for the result he achieved in my case it was a big dismissal 🙏

I called to retain counsel and Neil Patel was able to give me direction and clarity with the consultation alone. He was clear, realistic, and generous with his time and advise. He listened to everything I had to say, which was a lot, and responded accordingly. In the end, I offered money for the consult because of his thoroughness and my gratitude, and he refused. I appreciate his compassion, ethics, non-biased perspective and advise to see the whole picture, and time. Thank you, again.

Response from owner

Thank you, Jiyoon. I really appreciate you taking the time to write this. Part of my job is giving people honest assessments. You deserved what clarity I could provide about your options, not just someone willing to take your money. That's how we practice: straight talk about what makes sense and what doesn't. Our experience in Will County helps us give clients that realistic perspective they need. If your situation changes or you know anyone who needs help with criminal defense, DUI, or traffic matters, we're here. - Neil

DO NOT USE THIS LAWYER! I repeat do not use Neil Patel. I recommend looking for another lawyer before hiring him. I hired Neil Patel to defend my case and he insisted I plead guilty and take what the state offered me even before he could do any homework on my case. I would get harassed with phone calls from his assistant asking when could I make a payment more than any (if any) phone calls I would get from him regarding my case. Seemed like his firm concentrated on everyone making payments before the case could be over. It also seemed like he took on a lot of cases for the money instead of sincerely helping people. He’s arrogant and thinks he’s the best lawyer in Joliet. I ended up firing him and hired a new lawyer and my new lawyer got my case dismissed. Neil Patel was a waste of time and money. Think twice before hiring him.

Response from owner

I'm sorry you felt this way about your experience with our firm. Every case is different, and most cases don't have guaranteed outcomes—part of my job is being honest about that, which means providing advice on all options even when it's not what someone wants to hear. I'm glad your case was ultimately dismissed and that you got the result you were looking for. We did secure the removal of your GPS monitoring during our representation, and I wish you the best going forward. For anyone reading this, we've successfully handled thousands of cases in Will and DuPage Counties with the honesty and dedication our reviews reflect. – Neil

I genuinely cannot thank The Law Offices of Neil Patel enough. I was extremely stressed going into my case because I was potentially looking at not being able to get my license until I turned 18. As a 16 year old, that felt huge and honestly terrifying. From the start, he was confident, strategic, and clearly knew exactly what he was doing. He handled everything in court and negotiated an outcome that was way better than I expected. My major charges were dismissed, including the one that could’ve affected my license eligibility, and I walked away with supervision and traffic school instead. What stood out the most was his experience and composure. Even when I was anxious, he stayed calm and focused. You can tell he understands how prosecutors think especially because he has experience as a prosecutor and how to protect their clients. I truly believe I had the best possible representation. If you want a lawyer who knows the system, fights for you, and delivers results, this is the one. I’m beyond grateful.

Response from owner

Thank you so much, Manreet. I'm really glad we could protect your license and get those major charges dismissed. At 16, losing your license until 18 would've been devastating—I completely understood that stress. Cases involving young drivers require extra care because the consequences can follow them for years. My experience as a former prosecutor helped us navigate the system and get you the best possible outcome. You handled everything with maturity, and I'm glad we could turn a scary situation into something manageable. Our team's experience in Will and DuPage County traffic matters means we know exactly how to protect young people's futures. If you or your family ever need help again, or know anyone facing similar issues, we're here. Stay safe out there. - Neil

Excellent attorney. He responded to us on a Sunday when no one else would, and the outcome was far better than we anticipated. We’re very thankful for his help.

I have been a client for many, many years, and he has consistently gone above and beyond for me - especially during some of the lowest times in my life. He truly cares about his clients and has supported me through difficult situations, including helping me rebuild my life after I entered recovery and began making positive changes. His help has been life-changing not only for me, but also for several friends I've recommended him to, particularly those trying to rebuild their lives for the better. I have recommended him many times and will continue to do so.
