Gerald R. Lykins

Gerald Lykins represented me in a case for domestic assault. At the time I was a senior in college and had much going on with graduation, applying for jobs, and making preparations for moving out of state. Lykins worked diligently and effectively to get me a plea before I moved out of state. In the ...end, I was able to get a reduced charge. From the start of the case, it was obvious to me that Lykins has a good reputation within the Grand Rapids court system and was able to use that to my advantage in the case. Ultimately, Lykin's connections, competence, and dedication to my case made my situation a lot better. I am very thankful for his services and I would highly recommend him.

I hired Jerry Lykins after meeting the many other DUI attorneys. I was looking for a honest attorney who would work with me to save my license after I was arrested for my 2nd Drunk Driving. Jerry told me that he had plan and that if I did what he asked he felt that he could save my privileges. ... Well after almost 4 month and various legal motions, Jerry delivered and saved my license from being revoked. I cannot express the debt of gratitude I have for Jerry and his efforts. I was told by several other attorneys that there was nothing that could be done and I would just have to deal with the almost permanent loss of my driving privileges. Now, I have another chance and I have been counseled that I must be careful moving forward. Thank you Jerry!

I hired attorney Jerry Lykins after having another attorney handle my case for about a year. I had a number of old Housing Code Violation misdemeanors which were pending in Grand Rapids. I had left GR almost 3 years earlier and no longer owned the property. The outstanding Housing Code cases contin...ued to cause legal issues even though I was no longer living in Michigan. Jerry was worth every dollar I paid his firm. He was responsive and understood what I needed to resolve the case. In the end, the misdemeanors were amended to non-criminal cases which will permit me to remain conviction free, very important in today's job market. I would highly recommend Jerry to anyone searching for a very good criminal attorney. Jerry works hard and knows the system. Thanks Jerry!

I hired Jerry Lykins to represent me both with a 2nd DUI and later when I needed my driver's license reinstated. When I first hired Jerry to represented me almost 2 years ago for my DUI, it was a scary time for me. I searched for a criminal defense attorney that could provide me the direction and i...nstruction to move forward with an action plan and who could relate to me in a common sense way. Jerry provided a blue print and an action plan that I could understand and that I could follow. Jerry was able to minimized the effects of the DUI with the Court system and I was very happy with the resolution of the case. Most of all, I was happy with the support and direction Jerry offered me when making changes in my life that have redirected my future. Recently, I re-hired to Jerry to help get my driver's license back. Once again, Jerry had an action plan which I understood and could follow. Jerry provide a step by step plan which I followed carefully. Jerry was also able to work with the Secretary of State's office so that I did not have to fly back to Michigan from Colorado. Jerry's office was able to help me do a video hearing which not only saved me days of travel but a significant amount of money. Jerry prepared me both at the beginning and right before the hearing for the ins and out of the process. I now have my freedom back because I have my license back. While I did the work, the direction for getting back my freedom started with a phone call to Jerry Lykins. He is truly a Great Attorney and I would recommend him for any type of DUI or criminal matter!

I recently hired Jerry Lykins and the West Michigan Defense Team to help get my driving privilege restored after losing them in 2003. The process of getting my license back was a 10 year journey with two trips to the Secretary of State (the first trip without legal representation) and finally hiring ...Jerry and his firm to a successfully get my driver's license returned. I cannot say more about the ability of the Jerry and the Team to get my life and license back. Both Jerry and attorney Jeff Kortes worked on this and between the two of them I have my license back free and clear. They were always on top of the game, prompt and efficient in representation. The fees they charge are well worth the price and I would highly recommend their firm to anyone seeking a license. Thanks to Jerry and Jeff for their help!
