The best Attorney in town. I received my second DUI and called him immediately. I was totally stressed out due to the unfortunate situation. He was able to get my DUI knocked down to a reckless driving, as well as getting my driver’s license back, on top of paying minimum fines. I would recommend everybody to call him if you ever receive a DUI. Outstanding Attorney.

Jerry was hired by me and I will say that he was very affordable and when it came to knowledge and experience he was by far the best. I was looking for a outcome that would help both me and my family and he by far achieved an outcome I could of only prayed for. Jerry and his practice was always available even on weekends to keep me up to speed. Not just an attorney A real human being that cares about his clients> I would suggest his firm to anyone that wants to deal with an experienced Professional that knows Law but more importantly he knows people. Thank you MR Novak for your services me and my family are thankful. GREAT LAWYER, EVEN BETTER PERSON.

I called Jerry on a Saturday morning after a Thursday night arrest for a DUI. I was stressed and distraught. Upon calling him, he noticed I wasn’t doing well emotionally. The first 30-45 minutes of my free consultation call had nothing to do with my case. Jerry took the time to calm me down, offer breathing techniques and ways I could reduce my stress. He didn’t have to do that, but he did because he truly cares about his clients. After his suggestions, I was able to calm myself and convey my case to him. He first and foremost explained everything about my arrest and what he would do as my lawyer. I was so comforted and grateful for his emotional help and after hearing of his success in similar cases I hired him. I dropped off my retainer check the next day.
Jerry has been most helpful to me during this stressful situation. He’s fully explained everything to the point that I have no questions. I wholeheartedly recommend Jerry Novak as your attorney.

Mr. Novak is one of the very few attorneys out there engaged in the practice of law today that possesses the enviable trifecta of knowledge, expertise, and compassion. His empathic nature, combined with his extraordinary legal knowledge and practical experience spanning so many years empower him to deliver unmatched, first class, and individualized service to his clients. The fact that he is also a law professor and has been recognized with so many distinctions, awards, and certifications only demonstrates what his clients already know: that he is at the top of his field in every regard. I recommend him wholeheartedly and without reservation to anyone seeking not just an ordinary attorney, but an extraordinary advocate, counselor, and, of course, lawyer.

I understand everyone’s situation is different and even if things seem terrible give Jerald Novak a call. He won’t tell you what you want to hear he’ll tell you what you NEED to hear! He reminded me that you’ll never be wrong doing the right thing. He didn’t just get my case dismissed he reminded that I still have both hands on the wheel and a chance to get my life back on track. I wish everyone the best of luck and if you have any worries or questions give Jerald Novak a call.

We knew nothing of Jerry Novak’s excellent reputation and found ourselves in a situation late on a random Monday night needing some solid, sound advice. I reached out to a friend who jams also an attorney in a different area of expertise and she kindly offered to Google lawyers nearby that might be able to help us. Jerry’s number was the first one she sent me and despite the late hour we were amazed he answered his phone. Jerry immediately made us feel like we our situation was of great importance and he asked specific questions to completely understand quickly what was going on. He explained our rights and how to proceed in that moment and what we needed to do next. We felt such a relief and gratitude to have Jerry guide us both that night and throughout the process in the following days. Jerry is very knowledgeable in his field, direct and very good at explaining in terms that are understandable to a lay person who is not used to legal situations. Jerry really does care about his clients and making sure they are given the best outcome in an efficient manner. We cannot say enough about how fortunate we feel to have worked with him in our circumstances and would highly recommend him to anyone else needing his help.

We trusted Jerry to represent our 21 year old son who never had any interactions with law enforcement but was stopped for a DUI on a Saturday night out with friends in the car. We saw Jerry's high ratings in Lake County and called Jerry for an initial consultation. I thought we would interview 2-3 lawyers but after 10 minutes on the phone with Jerry I knew we had the right guy! Jerry is patient with great listening skills to quickly understand the situation and then clearly explains realistic options. I thought his pricing was very fair for a top quality lawyer. Jerry took quality time with my son in his office to review the case and go over all the options and strategy. The end result was Jerry had the DUI dismissed within 3 months and a remaining traffic offense for improper lane usage was negotiated to supervision. Couldn't be happier with the results! The most important aspect of hiring Jerry though is that he offerered sound counselling to our son about learning from this incident and making sure he takes this as a life lesson. Jerry gave our son "straight talk" with ramifications in the future if he doesnt learn from this incident. Overall, a highly, highly reccomend you call Jerry for fullly compentent representation with a lawyer who cares.
