Jacob Alexander Gurwitz

My husband was arrested in May, he was falsely accused of two counts of assault on a police officer and reckless endangerment and quite a few misdemeanor charges as well. The police offer stated that he pulled my husband over and when he "spotted something suspicious" in the vehicle, my husband pull...ed off but not before trying to hit him with the vehicle. My husband was not the man they were looking for, but he was facing at least 15 years if found guilty. I should mention that the officer waited a week and a half before he actually arrested my husband for this. We consulted with Jacob Gurwitz and he agreed to take our case. He worked hard to get the DA to bring charges down or get them dismissed altogether. Without going to trail, my husband would have had to do jail time either way. We decided to take it to trail. I sat in the courtroom and watched Mr. Gurwitz work, so it should have been no surprise when the jury returned with a not guilty verdict. My husband was facing some serious jail time for something he did not do and had it not been for Mr. Gurwitz my husband would probably have missed his daughters birthday, along with our 10 year anniversary. Mr. Gurwitz is a no nonsense, straight to the point, won't sugar coat anything, kind of lawyer. Without him, things would probably have turned out differently, and not in a good way. I will be forever grateful to Mr. Gurwitz for all of his hard work.

I was charged with two felony counts of IDSI and various misdemeanors. This was after the initial charges were withdrawn and I was re-arrested. Mr. Gurwitz represented me after I had initially contacted another area attorney, who took me for $2000 and did nothing for me and a second who didn't want... to look at the case for under $15,000. Mr. Gurwitz was referred to me through a friend and I decided to give him a call. My case dragged out for about 18 months. Mr. Gurwitz met with me every few months or so. He can be short and too the point while meeting with him in person, but if your case goes to trial, he will have you prepared to take the stand. His unique style, his uncanny approach, and his court presence is extraordinary. Mr. Gurwitz is a genious. The smartest and most sauve lawyer I ever met. I heard people tell my family that I hired the best and this was from his peers. That was very comforting under the circumstances I faced. Mr Gurwitz used the preliminary hearing to get the answers he needed and at trial used the same information when my accuser tried to lie on the stand. He squashed her. I was found guilty of a misdemeanor criminal trespass, but found innocent on 6 other charges with various counts, including two felony charges. Mr. Gurwitz is not a counselor, he is a great lawyer. When you hire him keep it professional and he will do the same. Do not look at him as a person who will say it's alright and calm your fears. That is not his job. He will however fight for every client with the same vigor that he did for my case. Mr. Gurwitz knows how to navigate the government BS and get the job done. He will run every angle in his head and attack like a pitbull when necessary. I have nothing but praise for this mans abilities. He is a master of his craft. Take the time to read his bio. It is truly impressive. Thanks again for everything you did for me and my family.

Charged with theft with unlawful taking even thou there was not much he could do he took on my case, he kept me out of jail and had the 2 counts of felony lowered to misdemeanor charges even thou I will have a record for the rest of my life it sure beats 14 yrs in jail and a record THANK YOU MR. GUR...WITZ !

I just returned from speaking with Mr. Gurwitz per a DUI case. I would like to say that although he could have strung me along knowing that there wasn't anything that he could do, Mr. Gurwitz did not. He reviewed the case with me, and told me that there really wasn't anything to be done to help me,... that I was hung, so he told me that I should save my money and not pay him to represent me. I respect his honesty and integrity. I highly recommend his services.

When I recieved, in the mail, these charges against me in May of "08" I thought my life was over. This incident supposedly happened in Dec."07" on my last drunk. I went to the yellow pages and for some reason Jacob Gurwitz's phone number jumped out at me. I made the call and he sat down with me and a...sked allot of questions and really got to know me. I was looking at jail time along with the embarrassment. With Jacob by my side and his knowledge of the system i only ended up with probation for two years and my record being expunged. He accomplished this with ARD. I was told that this was very rare. I had alot of questions . Anytime I would call, Jacob would put me at ease with the answers he had given me. This young man knows what he is doing and most of all his honesty is of the utmost. He's a hard working professional that really cares about the people he represents. So if there is a problem in your life that needs to be cleaned up and you feel you have no where to turn just give Jacob a call and he will honestly let you know if he can help you. Most of all I want to personally thank him for what he has done for me
