As an attorney, I have a strong desire to see that legal representation is affordable, accessible, and competent.  This drive to help others motivates my business philosophy to help wherever possible and however possible.  To this end, I strive to educate my clients of the many pitfalls that have sadly become too common in our legal system.  

This desire to educate my clients has encouraged me to assist in matters of traffic where, more than any other area of law, proceeding without representation is common.   Every year, drivers have their driving privileges suspended, insurance rates increased, and face steep fees due largely to lack of representation.  Given the need for a car in today's increasingly hectic world, protection of diving privileges from traffic violations are fundamental.  It is my desire to see every client armed with the tools to be an active participant in their legal issue to not only prevent these outcomes but empower them to know their rights.

My drive to be a positive force in my client's lives comes from years of service working to help those in need where the legal system has failed to adequately assist them.  My passion here primarily focused on aiding charities dedicated to ending domestic and sexual violence which all too often continues in spite of attempts at prosecution.  I work to bring this passion for assisting others whenever I step up to represent a client in the hopes that I might help them find resolution to their current legal troubles.

Traffic Ticket
Used this law firm for a traffic ticket issue and very pleased with the outcome. Fast and easy to work with and highly recommend. All digital convenience which was the best. Jason explains all your options really well and never tries to make you feel you need to overspend. Highly recommend.

Very efficient
Jason represented me regarding a traffic accident and also represented a family member regarding a speeding ticket. Jason is great at explaining things and putting people at ease. I am an attorney but I'm not familiar with a area in which he practices. He is clearly comfortable in traffic court and knows his way through the system. Highly recommended!

Most Honest and Knowledgeable Lawyer You Could Work With
Jason handled my traffic ticket, and I wouldn't want anyone else on my team. He was helpful in answering all my questions, and made sure every possible scenario was considered and attended to. I would be happy to recommend him to anyone.

highly recommend
Jason is really good. I got a speeding ticket and the attorney told me at the very beginning that I do not need lawyer for such minor case but he is still very patient in explaining what are the options and correct way to handle it. I called another attorney for consulting exactly the same case and they highly recommend me hiring an attorney and charge around $400. Later I called the county clerk office and confirm the suggestions Wilkins provided are correct. Appreciate your consultation, thank you!

NO ONE BETTER
I was in a pickle, about to get my license suspended, and when everyone else charged me an outrageous price, Jason Wilkins was not only reasonable but understanding as well. He saved my license without ever having to meet in person. I'd be proud call him my lawyer

Great lawyer
I used Mr Wilkins for a traffic violation. He went to court on my behalf and was able to save me my license. His fee was very reasonable and he was very helpful and always available when I needed to talk with him. Would definitely recommend his services.

speeding tragedy
I am 22 years old... i like to go fast and well it cost me.... got about 3 tickets in a 3 month span and well i was facing suspending my license. I found jason online, he called me. told me his plan to get me out supervisions on all my tickets. he did so for a fair price...didn't even have to go to court! and i am a student so money is tight. so he got the court to give me enough time to pay off my fees! overall super happy. hopefully i don't have to hire him again. but if i had to. i would.

Got 2 Traffic Tickets Dismissed
I got pulled over for speeding above 35 mph on a highway and the officer gave me 2 more tickets including the speeding. I was really worried since under a new law in Illinois, speeding 35 MPH over the posted limit is a Class A misdemeanor. I spoke with several attorneys about my case before I went ahead with Jason as my attorney. I could clearly tell the difference that Jason was knowledgeable, straight forward, honest, legit and he charged me reasonable. My case was even more difficult since I'm an international student and this could affect my immigration status. Jason was pro - active, as soon as he started working on the case, he collected as many documents to include in the mitigation package. I was confident that he would get me out of trouble and he actually exceeded my expectations. He got my other 2 tickets dismissed, and even got the speeding ticket lowered. He kept me informed about my options though out, gave his opinions, and let me decide. He even followed up with me to ensure that none of this is impacting my immigration status. I cant thank Jason enough for this great help. Undoubtedly he is a pro in handling Traffic Violation Cases. I would highly recommend Jason. Its hard to find such honest and professional people these days - Vick

Motioning a traffic ticket conviction
I used Jason as my lawyer to help me motion a prior conviction for speeding. I was facing a suspension for 3 moving violation convictions within a year and he was able to motion one back an get me court supervision thus, lifting the pending suspension. He was a complete pro and easy to work with, highly recommend his services.

Speeding Ticket
Jason was very helpful with the entire process. He made sure I was aware of everything that I needed to do before the court date and after a decision was made by the judge. I would give give Jason 5 stars and would recommend him to anyone that needs help in Lake County.

Jason Wilkins Review
Overall I was honestly satisfied with the professionalism Jason had and also how he informed me on information I was unaware of. I would most definitely recommended him to my friends, family, and co workers as well.

First experience with a lawyer: Excellent
I was stuck in Detroit while I was about to miss an appearance on my small claims case. Despite every other lawyer I talked to telling me to have the complaint dismissed and file another one the following year, Jason was willing to work with my short deadline and quickly arranged an appearance on my behalf. He was incredibly thorough and explained his actions in advance at every step of the process. For my first experience, Jason satisfied all my legal needs perfectly.
