Great Respectable Lawyer!

Glenn represented my husband on an escape charge that he received for not turning himself in to the IDOC. My husband was facing 2-8 years on that charge and Glenn was able to get my husband 2 years probation. Glenn also looked into the original case and was able to get some time credited as well. Gl...enn was always professional and prompt in returning my calls and messages. Glenn is also affordable and is willing to work with you. I would definitely recommend Glenn!

Changed My Life

I heard about Glen through another inmate who he successfully represented. When I first met him, he assured me that it wasn't the end of the road and there was light at the end of the tunnel. I was facing 25 (agg kidnapping/agg battery) years 85% and 15 (drug w/intent 100grams) years. Glenn got me (3...x felon) a reduced sentence of 7.5 years at 50%. He then told me he believed in me and said that I had the ability to change and when I went to prison that time to work on myself. I went to school and earned college credits and followed up with a community college, then earned my associates. I then transferred to NIU and earned my bachelors. I am now about to graduate with my masters in 7 months and putting in for a doctoral program as well. All this wasn't possible without Glenn! Thanks for changing my life and I appreciate your words of wisdom and helping me find life after my last prison stint. Andre

He is like Perry Mason

I had Glen Jazwiek in 2006 to 2009 for 4 DwI I got back after back. By 2009 all case were going on the same time. Then he beat the 2006 case then the 2007,2008, and 2009 case. I didn't do no jail time and kept my lisense. He said by me having all 4 cases going on excited him because he never had that... before. Thanks, Glen , you gave me the opportunity to change my life and I did.

I know a hundred lawyers, Glenn Jazwiec is the one I admire most

Simply put: Glenn Jazwiec is diligent, highly intelligent, and he truly cares about his clients. He does the hard work and research necessary to win tough cases. I know from experience and many others would have gone to jail without this great, noble man. Does this sound like an over-the-top endorsem...ent? It understates Glenn's character. I really do know 100 attorneys as friends, classmates, and clients. They are mostly greedy, talentless hacks by comparison. Specifically, I will describe one case of many Glenn worked with me on: My firm was was sued by another firm. I thought we would have a good defense, but after the plaintiff presented their case, Glenn made a motion to dismiss their case based upon a technicality. While I was at lunch, Glenn was looking up case law, which he used to quickly earn a summary judgement and the dismissal of the plaintiff's case.
