Very Professional- Extremely Knowledgable
This attorney was very up to date on the law and knew the issues forward and backwards. His years of experience shows and it really made a difference. I highly recommend him as a Top Notch lawyer.

The Best Lawyer I've Dealt With Hands Down
I was very foolish and drove while drinking and Mr. Lee represented myself and several others in Helen and all of our cases came out great, as good if not better than most! I got a good deal and it was exactly what Mr. Lee said it would be. He knew what to expect prior to court and was informed abou...

Lazy
If you have a case that might involve knowing the law...DO NOT..hire this man.After $5000 I learned a very expensive lesson..This attroney is great at cashing checks but not so great a knowing the law.The judge had to tell him the law while we were in front of him.How this man sleeps at night is beyo...
This client went into court, insulted the entire court including the prosecutor and then thought he would be a know it all and have his case bound over to the Superior Court. Then he found the prosecutor had warned the Superior Court about what a drunk he was and the D.A. WAS GUNNING FOR HIM. WHEN HE FOUND OUT WHAT THE D.A. WAS OFFERING HIM HE BEGGED ME TO GET THE MUNICIPAL COURT TO HEAR HIS CASE AFTER ALL! I DID THIS EVEN THOUGH HE WAS A COMPLETE JERK AND FOR NO EXTRA FEE, BUT TWICE THE WORK. THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF NO GOOD TURN, GOES UNPUNISHED!!! WHAT DO YOU EXPECT HE HAS A SEVERE ALCOHOL PROBLEM!

EXCEPTIONAL LAWYER
COMPLETELY SATISFIED...RESPONSIVE...COMPETITIVELY PRICED...KNEW HIS STUFF! THUMBS UP!
"I had a case with Jerry last year and found him to be an outstanding lawyer. He was clearly well knowledgeable of the law, a great advocate for his client, and very professional and easy to work with throughout the case (which is always a plus for clients -- versus having lawyers adding to the fighting/fees instead of fixing the problems). I certainly endorse Jerry"
"Jerry is an exceptional trial lawyer with nearly 40 years experience. I have seen him bring that wisdom and experience to bear in our case together. Further, he is a passionate and zealous advocate for his client, all without ever compromising an inch of integrity. I wholeheartedly recommend Jerry if you are looking for advocacy with wisdom and common sense."
"I endorse this lawyer. Jerry is a very hard working dedicated lawyer. I respect him and have confidence in his work."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Jerry for decades. He is an excellent, superb lawyer. His distinction is something he and I use to laugh about years ago. We both have reputations in the legal communities we practice in for 'outside the box' thinking and research and success in backing it up."
"I highly recommend this attorney. Very intelligent and very thorough when analyzing legal issues! Compassionate with clients and aggressive with legal issues! 5 STARS!!"
"I've had the occasion to know Jerry and be familiar with his legal knowledge and skills for many years and I would definitely recommend him to people in his part of my state as an excellent choice as an attorney."
"I give Jerry Lee the highest recommendation. I am an attorney and have known Jerry for over 30 years. I would unhesitatingly refer a client to him as I know my client would receive the best possible representation especially in the areas of personal injury, drunken driving defense and criminal matters. I am confident that Jerry would return a happy client to me. Jerry possesses a scholarly understanding of the law combined with savvy street smarts. Adding to his immense talents is his approachable manner and ability to patiently explain the complexities of a client’s case so that the client can understand them. He is a lawyer’s lawyer and a gentleman. Highly regarded in the legal community, he is a powerful force."
"I'm pleased to endorse Jerry's work in his areas of practice. I have found Jerry to be very attentive to his client's needs; and to represent his clients with care and concern."
"I have had the pleasure of working with Jerry on a number of domestic relations cases. When he is representing his client's interests he is firm, yet fair. He also does an amazing job of keeping his cool in situations where other people would not. My guess is that this is due to the fact that Jerry has such extensive experience that he seems to have handled just about every situation that a case can throw at him. I especially enjoy working with Jerry in contested matters that require courtroom litigation. I respect that he doesn't give up, and that even in the midst of the most contentious case, he is easy to get along with."
