RICKY PATEL, ESQ. ’09 presents his case to the jury in Tallahassee
on behalf of his client, Florida State running back Dalvin Cook.
|
St. Thomas Law graduates Ricky Patel, Esq. ’09 and Joey McCall, Esq. ’11, made national headlines this week after successfully defending their client, Florida State running back Dalvin Cook, in a misdemeanor battery case in Tallahassee. Mr. Cook was found not guilty by a jury after being involved in an incident a few months ago in Tallahassee.
Along with fellow alumnus Wesley Farrell, Esq. ’09, Mr. Patel is a founding partner at Farrell & Patel in Miami. Mr. McCall is a junior partner at the firm.
Patel and McCall were actively involved in mock trial as students at St. Thomas Law, so it comes as no surprise to see their success in the Cook case, as well in their general practice.
For the past several years, the firm has assisted hundreds of clients in the Gulf Coast area in recovering millions of dollars in lost revenue after the BP Oil Spill in 2010.
