About Jesse

I come from a large family. I have seven siblings and my parents have been married for 51 years.

 

I am a Santa Cruz attorney.  I love it here!  I went to law school in San Diego and have lived by the beach ever since.   I love surfing, beach volleyball and just spending time at the beach.  I am very active.  I exercise daily and keep to a pretty strict diet routine.  Health is happiness. 

 

I enjoy speaking with my colleagues and lay people about the law.  It has always been of interest to me and the longer I do it the more I enjoy it.

Practice areas

DUI and DWIContracts and agreementsPersonal injury
  1. Personal injury: 70%

    Almost all personal injury cases are taken on a contingency fee basis, not an hourly fee basis. The number of these types of cases I have worked on is an estimation. I started as a personal injury law clerk over ten years ago and have been practicing in personal injury for 8 years.

    14 years, 100 cases

  2. Contracts and agreements: 15%

    The number of these types of cases I have worked on is an estimation. I have been litigation counsel for several contract disputes including grower contracts and LLC and LLP disputes as well as other written contract disputes like credit card agreements and purchase/sale agreements.

    14 years, 10 cases

  3. DUI and DWI: 15%

    I REALLY ENJOY DUI DEFENSE!! The number of these cases I have worked on is an estimation. I worked with a DUI defense firm and handled most of the hearings in Santa Cruz County. I have negotiated reduced sentences, hit and run charges dropped, and negotiated other reductions in charges for DUI defendants.

    8 years, 20 cases

Review Jesse Turner

Excellent Attorney!

Posted by

Jesse Turner was an excellent attorney that I would definitely recommend! He is very knowledgeable, hard working, helpful and honest. Jesse did a excellent job representing me and I felt secure and taken care of. He really went to bat for me in court. If you want a knowledgeable, honest, hard working attorney, then Jesse Turner is definitely the one for you.

Fought for me and won

Posted by

I hired attorney Turner on a civil litigation matter. I needed defense. Jesse was well spoken and aggressive in court, and the judge listened to him with respect. We won, and the other side's case against me was thrown out.

Jesse is the man!

Posted by

Jesse is a great attorney. Always on top of his cases, making sure everything is accurate with everyone's paper work and always going out of his way to make sure you are good physically and mentally. Not only does he get the job done, but he genuinely wants to make sure that what you are going through is easy and stress free. I definitely recommend him.

Uses foul language and intimidation tactics

Posted by

I would not recommend him. He uses poor language and curses when “trying” to convey his point of view. He is self involved and immoral.
