Jacob came highly recommended. He handled our case with confidence and got all charges dismissed. He was always available and willing to take the time to listen and respond. We are extremely satisfied with the way everything was handled. His expertise was well demonstrated during court. He was very thorough on expectations and the course of how court and the legal system work. We are very glad to have had Jacob on our side.

We found ourselves in a very difficult situation that involved the police. It was there word against ours. So, naturally, we looked for the best lawyer in town. I met with five of the top rated lawyers on Avvo after narrowing down lawyers from phone conversations. Every lawyer I met with had strengths, but for this case, Jacob was a clear choice. Jacob not only has over 9 years of experience practicing only criminal law, he also worked at a DAs office and is very well respected by his peers. But the other lawyers were also experienced. Jacob was the only lawyer to ask factual questions concerning my roommate in order to get a more personal background. Essentially, he cares about the person he is representing.
Now, never having been in this situation before, we were very worried about the outcome of the case. Jacob kindly answered all of our questions and always responded to our texts and emails. He was there to walk us through the procedures, even though admittedly we were worrying more than we needed to.
Jacob in court is very impressive. He is well dressed, has a fantastic personality, is able to put others at ease, and because he knows what he is doing, it is clear that people like to work with him. We needed to settle this case as quickly as possible in order to return to our lives, and Jacob got us the best possible outcome. It was not an easy case, and things could have gone much worse. But thanks to Jacob, this is now something we can put behind us.
I don't have any real negatives to say. Jacob was busy with a trail and still managed to find time to answer all of our questions. His fee was the most reasonable of any of the lawyers I met with and honestly, he is worth more than what he charged. We are so lucky to have found him.

When I was arrested for a DUI, I thought my life was over. However after contacting Jacob Glucksman, he reassured me that not only was my life not over, but that my case had significant issues that could be used in my defense. After a hard fought DMV hearing and successful negotiating with the prosecutor, Mr. Glucksman was able to reduce my charge to a wet reckless. His experience as a prior district attorney goes a long way with his ability to negotiate. No one should ever drink and drive, but if you happen to be in the same unfortunate situation that I was do not hesitate to call Jacob Glucksman immediately. He gets results.

Jacob was not only professional, but also very trustworthy. He handled our case quickly and was extremely effective. I would recommend him in a heartbeat. Criminal charges are never easy and typically, one can't imagine ever needing a criminal lawyer. The process can be scary, confusing, and fast paced. While navigating the process, Jacob is the attorney you want on your side. He made us feel confident and helped us to navigate the legal system. He is extremely knowledgeable and was tough when he needed to be. We cannot thank him enough for all he did for our case and our family!

I interviewed many other law offices before deciding on Jacob Glucksman. From my first meeting in his office, I knew we’d made the right decision. Mr. Glucksman is meticulously aware of the legal system and shows genuine concern for his clients. While keeping me apprised of all pertinent information, he exhibited communication skills that I’ve found to be unparalleled. Mr. Glucksman put up a fearless and diligent fight for my son and I cannot thank him enough for his masterful skill set and impeccable work ethic. His expertise was clearly evidenced in the courtroom and reflected the continuum of knowledge he’s gained over the years as a prosecutor turned defense attorney. While Mr. Glucksman exhibited many valuable traits, the most favorable trait of all was his effectiveness in the courtroom. Results speak louder than words and I could not be more pleased. From my family to yours, I warmly welcome you to put your mind at ease and place your trust in one of the best defense attorneys in southern California.

Mr. Glucksman is a dedicated, talented, professional who knows the in and outs of the legal system as few can. Above his obvious talent for his chosen profession, he speaks candidly, sensitively, and has an understanding of the human condition, something that goes hand in hand with his type of work. I was lucky to have found him during such a difficult time.

I went to Jacob at a very difficult time. I had never needed a criminal lawyer before and did not understand the charges as well as my legal options. He was extremely responsive from the very first call. He kept me informed through the entire process with a very favorable outcome. His rates were extremely fair. I could not have imagined going through this ordeal with anyone else. His knowledge of the law is only surpassed by his compassion and empathy for his clients. I would highly recommend him.
