Joliet CDL Lawyer

​Commercial Driver’s License Attorney in Will County

A CDL – commercial driver’s license holder is held to a higher standard than people with a standard issued driver’s license. The Illinois Secretary of State closely monitors commercial drivers as commercial drivers take on more danger and responsibility than regular drivers. CDL privileges can be taken away through the disqualification of your CDL – Commercial Driver’s License. The Law Offices of Neil Patel helps people fight for their jobs and career when they are at risk of losing their commercial driver’s license.

As a truck driver if you can’t drive – you cannot earn a living. Additionally, a traffic ticket on your MVR – motor vehicle record can raise your insurance premium and can possibly impact your current and future employment. Attorney Patel has been able to help his clients have tickets dismissed, and in some cases have tickets changed to a non-moving violation. We can help you keep your record clean.
