"Choosing Jake as my lawyer was one of the best decisions I have ever made!! Working full time and taking care of 2 kids by myself is overwhelming as it is and takes up all of my time; I didn't know how I would be able to deal with the stress, appointments, paperwork and most of all not driving. Jake took care of EVERYTHING and he kept me on the road!!! I could not be happier with Jake, his honesty integrity, communication and hard work go above and beyond the fee he charged. THANK YOU!!!!"

"Jake, Thanks for all of your help. You have made this a smooth and organized process. While this event was a horrible situation for me, the phone call to you the morning after my DUI was the best thing that I could have done. While it has been a pleasure working with you on my case, please don't take offense when I say that I hope we never have to work together again."

"I went on the Internet and searched "DUI lawyer Sonoma County" and found Jake's website. I was impressed by how much information and advice it had on it. I called him and he seemed extremely knowledgeable, sympathetic, and reassuring. I needed to act fast because of that 10 day DMV rule, so I signed up with him that day. Jake told me in my case he could most likely get my charge reduced from DUI to wet reckless, and he did! He handled everything for me and I never had to go to court. Thanks to Jake the D.A. went easy on me! If God forbid I ever have any future alcohol related charges, I wouldn't want anyone else handling my case!"

"Hey Jake, You did what I thought wasn't possible and got my charges reduced. No jail time and reduced fines. I really appreciate your hard work. I hope nobody I know ever has the unfortunate instance of getting arrested for a DUI but if so I know who I'll recommend. Thanks again Jake!"

"When you are dealing with the consequences of a DUI, it can be overwhelming. The entire process is complex and complicated for those of us that are not fully informed of our rights and the laws. That's where you come in Jake, and how grateful I really am for all the help and encouragement you gave me. Just to know you were in my corner made all the difference. You were very honest with me and explained everything clearly so I wasn't confused. Thank you for putting all this info on your website. You were a breath of fresh air and I would recommend to anyone who needs an attorney, JAKE IS THE VERY BEST!"
D.K., Sonoma
