I strongly recommend and can honestly say it with complete confidence that Jerry and Julissa are two Dynamic Duo of strategy and professionalism. They attacked and approach every detailed and key pointers in my case in hopes of Winning and guess what We Did. My case wasn't average and definitely wasn't easy to handle when you have a record the length of a football field also let's not forget two prior prison terms. Jerry and Julissa handled my gun charge with experience and knowledge Best Lawyer in Town is Jerry Nicholson..

Jerry did a magnificent job of defending my DUI case, which could have been MUCH worse without his assistance. I got arrested for my second DUI just short of ten years after my first offense, and my blood alcohol level was about 0.15—nearly double the legal limit of 0.08. This meant that I was facing added legal enhancements that usually require mandatory jail time. Jerry is a former Deputy District Attorney who has handled a wide range of legal cases, so he started attacking my case from several directions. He discovered, for example, that I was taking medications that can cause people to become dizzy and faint when consuming alcohol, a fact that would have enhanced my DUI symptoms. He also located an expert witness who estimated that my blood alcohol level was considerably less than 0.15, a fact that helped mitigate the worst enhancement. Jerry has many connections throughout the legal system, so he presented his collected evidence to the court. As a result, the second enhancement was dropped, and I pled “no contest” to a single charge as if it were my first DUI offense. I also paid a fine, served community service, and received unsupervised probation, but I served no jail time. Jerry came to my rescue in a big way, and he can come to your rescue as well. Thanks again Jerry…you da man!

All I have to say is by far the best lawyer I could have had the pleasure of working with. Through out my court process Jerry has gone above and beyond with the help of his assistant. To make my court process easy as can be. Just be willing to hear him out and everything he needs from you. But truly thank him for everything. Recommend 100%.

My wife was trying grubhub delivery for the first time, for income. She was two weeks into the job and got her first alcohol delivery after taking a very short online training course on it. Her first delivery ended with a swarm of police cars that accused her of delivering alcohol to their planted dummy minor. Its so awful, because the app requires an ID card scan to verify the age of the recipient of alcohol, otherwise, grubhub won't let her complete the delivery and she gets in trouble. Grubhub reports the incident to the police as well and so this police sting was pretty random and seemed to be very unwarranted. Anyway, my wife forgot to do the scan before handing the order over and the dummy minor took off so quick, that when she looked down to end the order on her phone and realized she had to scan ID, he was already out of sight. Thats when the cop cars swarmed her and cited her for a misdemeanor, before she even had a chance to report the incident herself to grubhub or anyone else. My wife is foreign and had never had an experience with a US officer before. She was not aware of her right to remain silent and her right to counsel. She proceeded to answer all the cops questions without legal counsel, thinking as long as she cooperated, she wouldn't be in trouble. She didn't realize they were building a case to charge her with a misdemeanor, because they constantly reassured her everything would be fine. They had as strong a case as any against my wife. We consulted with Jerry and Julissa and after meeting with them, we found them to be very knowledgeable and honest. Jerry broke it down for us and explained that his approach would involve negotiating with the DA to dismiss the charges on condition of attending a diversion program (like taking some educational alcohol serving courses). We went ahead and hired them. From that moment they took care of everything. My wife was even able to leave the country while they handled everything. They were also very quick to respond to our questions and I think it was very fortunate that Jerry had many years experience as a DA as he was able to predict, with great precision, what to expect. The end result was that Jerry was able to convince the DA to dismiss the case without any diversion program, like it never even happened. My broke down in tears of joy, literally, happy that this nightmarish charge was no longer hanging over us. Jerry and Julissa have our full recommendation as your criminal defense. Thank you Jerry and Julissa for everything you did for us. Thank you so much!

Jerry and Julissa are the best in Long Beach! They took the weight off my shoulders, taking care of my entire legal matter without any assistance needed from me. Julissa is always available for questions and Jerry will update you along the entire process. Thank you Jerry!

This man is somewhat of a miracle worker. I made a mistake last year that could have easily ruined my life and Jerry basically got the prosecution to completely wipe the whole case. The results were better than I could have imagined. He didn’t even worry me about the details because he took complete control of the situation. If I ever need help again, I will not be calling anyone else. Thank you Jerry.

Jerry is your go to criminal lawyer!! I was charged with something that would have ruined my life. The first time I met him for our consultation, he explained everything to my mother and I in detail on what can happen and what he plans to do to help me. After meeting with him I left feeling at ease. I knew right then and there I picked the right lawyer to stand for my defense. Jerry is very professional and know how to communicate well in court. You can tell he’s respected as well. And he knows how it works the Long Beach Court. I was going to be charged with a felony and he was able to speak to the DA and drop it down to a misdemeanor. And he got me my daughter back. He believed in me and knew I needed his help and that’s exactly what he did for me. I can tell he worked very hard on my case. Ive has bad experience’s with lawyers, but Jerry made that insecurity go away. Jerry has an assistant, Julissa. Julissa thank you so much for keeping me informed about EVERYTHING! Any questions I had she always responded right away. It was never difficult to get ahold of Jerry because of Julissa. Thank you Julissa for all your hard work as well! Jerry thank you so so much!
