Excellent Job!
One of the best decisions I made was choosing The Traffic Ticket Attorneys to fight my ticket .I would highly recommend using Jerry Jenkins if you got a ticket and are hoping to get it dismissed. He was able to dismiss my ticket and avoid points in my license.

Life Saver
Jerry was amazing from the moment my husband called him. He was there for me the whole time. He went out of his way to help me with my situation. If it wasn't for him, I know where I would be today and it wouldn't be pleasant. He was a literal life saver.

Jerry Jenkins was my lawyer and will be always!
Jerry Jenkins was amazing through my entire ordeal. He checked on my well being constantly. He always kept me informed with everything that was going on with my personal injury case. In the end I was very satisfied with the outcome of my case. I have no doubts that Jerry Jenkins will always be my lawyer. He is not only a great lawyer but he treated me like I was a good friend as well. I wasn't just a case number and a meal ticket like some of these big firms. I recommended Jerry to all my friends and anyone that needs a lawyer that actually cares and fights for you. Thank you Jerry Jenkins!

Not Your Every Day Attorney
Mr. Jenkins had an advertisement on the radio about a month ago for people who were looking to have criminal charges expunged from their record. I immediately sent him an email with a family member's information and in no time at all, contact was made, legal documents drawn up and the expungement process initiated. Her only out of pocket was the $75 filing fee! In other words, Jerry took time out of his busy life to help my family member and probably many other people clear their name on a probono basis. Just weeks later, a good friend of mine randomly asked me if I knew anything about the expungement process. Conveniently, I had saved Jerry's contact information so I sent him her information even though this "expungement day" was last month. Jerry still said would reach out to her. I could never thank him enough for helping two people who are very dear to me but I can let the world know what type of character they can expect from Jerry. THANK YOU JERRY!!

Jerry or None
Jerry helped me face one of the biggest hardships I have come across in my entire lifetime. My charges were not miniscule and neither were my future consequences. Jerry was able to keep me not only calm and hopeful but informed and well educated about the possible outcomes. He took his time when reviewing my case and all aspects of it. He is great with communication and making sure his client is fully aware of court hearings and procedures. Jerry tells you how it is even if it is not what you would like to hear. He is well respected among all in his field and is someone you would want to defend you in any case big or small. Jerry will always be my "go to" if I ever needed in the future.

Pursuer of Justice
Jerry gave me great counsel. He really did his homework on my case and was well prepared for court. He allowed me to make the decisions on how I wanted things handled and he worked with that. He not only got the charges dismissed but he presented the facts so that the jury could see that cop lied.

Definitely recommended
Jerry was very helpful throughout my case and kept me well informed of everything that would happen and all of the options I had. I would most definitely recommend him!
