Ernest Jacob Colonna

I've been a Type 1 Diabetic for over 34 years. In the past 2 years, I've had the Dexcom app which has helped me better manage my glucose levels. November 6, 2025 is a day I'll never forget. I was asked to silence my phone during a funeral. After the funeral I had been talking with family and friends ...about the life we had lost. I had forgotten to turn my Dexcom alerts back on. I went to meet the family at a restaurant, but I never saw any of them, so I decided to drive home. During that drive home, my blood sugar dropped below 40 without it alerting me because phone was still silent. I ended up getting a careless operation ticket which is a criminal case. My first court date they didn't take a look at my evidence proving that I was having a diabetic related incident. I called the office of Jacob Colonna to hear my case out. He showed up for my next trial court date and made sure my evidence was heard and the prosecutor dismissed my case. Thank you so much Jacob for being my voice. I know now not to silence my phone for anything at all since the incident in November. I would definitely recommend hiring Jacob Colonna at Colonna Law Firm, LLC as a great Criminal Justice attorney in the city of Lake Charles.
