Jay did an amazing job for our family! He worked through each and every issue and relieved our family of the burdens it was facing. We are forever grateful and highly recommend Jay and his professional expertise.

Jay Englund worked for many months on a case where I was charged with OWI/DUI, but he got the case dismissed after a lot of careful detail work on his part--work that I would never have thought about myself, or had access to, such as police camera footage, timelines, and various points of Wisconsin law. (I am not from Wisconsin, but Jay also got in touch with a lawyer in my state to sound out the issues). Both the prosecutor and judge in Wisconsin were convinced by Jay to dismiss the case pretrial. This was my first experience with such a charge, but I feel with full confidence that Jay is a five-star defender and extremely recommendable. He was very professional and communicative throughout.

I managed to quickly accumulate three OWI arrests in three different counties. Things looked pretty hopeless in terms of having to spend real time in jail. Jay worked tirelessly to shepherd me through this legal maze. Jay identified enough legal problems with each of the cases that I was able to plead out to minor charges with no impact on my ability to keep working at my job. In pretrial hearings, Jay was incredibly effective in examining the arresting officers. His sharp questioning forced the arresting officers into making admissions about my arrests that destroyed the State’s cases against me. Sitting in the courtroom and watching him question the officers and present legal arguments to the judge convinced me that I had the best representation available. Because Jay was interested in learning the facts, and had a clear understanding of Wisconsin law, when he couldn’t convince the prosecutor to give up an argument before court, he crushed the prosecutor in front of the judge. I am hopeful that I will never need Jay’s services again, but if a friend ever needs a criminal defense lawyer in Wisconsin, Jay will be my first recommendation.

Attorney Englund went above and beyond for us. He was caring, understanding and had our best interest in mind. We are very appreciative of the work he did on our behalf.

This review is as REAL as it gets! Charged with Felony 5th OWI, Felony refusal to give blood. During which caught ANOTHER case Felony Bail jumping, and Felony possession of narcotics. End result Felony 5th OWI AND Felony Refusal....DISMISSED. Felony possession dropped, plead out the Felony bail jumping NO JAIL TIME, NO PROBATION!!! Now not only was hiring Jay the best decision I have ever made...and yes the outcome of both cases better than I ever imagined....that's not even the icing on the cake...bottom line Jay M. Englund literally saved my life! Upon hiring him I was in a dark place where I have just about to give up on everything, Jay gave me suggestions not just to help with my case, more importantly to get my life on track. They were hard decision, but I listened to him and we'll I finally have my life back which I truly thought was coming to an end. Jay was with me by my side the ENTIRE way! As for my case....once Jay knew something, I knew something. He kept me posted 110% of the way, explained everything, clearly, and most importantly was 110% honest weather it was good or bad news/ thoughts of what to do. Between him and his secretary everything was documented, explained, and getting a hold of Jay for any reason was NEVER an issue! I can honestly say I have my life back, on track, and NOTHING holding me on a stand still 110 % because of making the decision to hir Jay Englund. Pricy yes but HE WORKED with me ways a lot of other lawyers wouldn't. When it comes to price....DO NOT LET IT DISCOURAGE YOU FROM HIRING HIM. For a guy that lives pay check to pay check....well worth every penny....and I wouldn't of had one issue paying more if needed. This review is a real as they come if your reading this. My case is over and I still have his number if I ever need him even just for advice I know I can count on him. He is more than a lawyer in my eyes. He is someone who I now trust with my life a great friend....and I feel I can never truly pay him back for what he has done for me!

Jay worked relentlessly to uncover the evidence the police failed to obtain. His efforts resulted in a complete dismissal of the case against our child. Jay is direct with his advice and does everything he can to ensure the best outcome possible for his client. I would not hesitate to hire Jay again if needed.

We engaged Attorney Englund's representation on behalf of a family member, He and his staff are knowledgeable, decisive, proactive, and delivered the best and least expensive possible outcome. Attorney Englund holds the secret decoder ring for Wisconsin criminal law. If the need arose, I would not hesitate to hire him again.

I was charged with OWI-1st over a year ago. After consulting with some of my law enforcement buddies, they unanimously recommended Jay Englund to help me fight my case. Jay reviewed my case, and was honest and up front with me about my chances of winning my case. What I didn't know, is that the "chances" of winning my case has alot to do with how hard your attorney is willing to work. Yesterday, after 13 months, we finally had our day in court. I knew that Jay had spent countless hours going over every little detail of my case, but I didn't realize is how effective he is in the court room. Folks, if you are reading this review, you have to realize that Jay DOMINATES the court room. I walked into the courtroom with an uneasy feeling, but as the minutes ticked on and Jay started presenting evidence, I quickly gained more and more confidence. After 30 minutes of bringing up things that even I had forgotten about, quoting case law off the top of his head, and strategically questioning witnesses, there was no doubt HE had convinced the judge to throw out my case. And that's exactly what happened! Jay Englund is the Michael Jordan of attorneys. I cannot recommend him enough. If you are shopping for an attorney, believe me, you get what you pay for, but the intangibles are, how hard is your attorney going to work for you? Jay made me feel like I was his only client. The guy will simply bust his ass for you. In retrospect, I believe the difference between a good lawyer and great lawyer is their work ethic. If you hire Jay Englund, you will definitely get your money’s worth!

Jay Englund is by far the go to choice for legal advice/consultation. He helped me out tremendously and ended up getting my owi 2nd dismissed. Him and his assistant put in so much effort and time to make it all possible. He is very good at explaining all the legalities so you can easily understand what is going on.

There is a saying “people like to work with people they like” and this is not only true from a client attorney relationship, but this was very evident in Mr. England’s relationship with everyone we encountered in the Souk County legal system. Accused of OWI 1st offence with minors is no walk in the park. Jay was very clear on all the aspects of the charges that I was facing and held no punches. Then he went to work diligently reviewing all aspects and there were many, built the case and in the end DISMISSAL. Follow his advice to the letter he knows what he is doing.

Being accused of driving under the influence, Jay dug deep into the case reviewing all the video evidence to prove they pulled over the wrong person. Jay is thorough. A proven leader in his line of work. I would recommend Jay to any family member or friend without hesitation. Thank you Jay for being so good at what you do and keeping my record clean.

Charged with a felony offense carrying time in prison, I called my estate attorney and asked for a criminal defense referral. Without hesitation, he answered, "Jay Englund, I'd put my life in his hands and pay him what he wants." My case ended in dismissal with prejudice. Jay works in a clipped, efficient, and thorough manner. Great staff as well.
