About Jerald Novak

As an experienced trial lawyer with 35 years of practice, I've handled cases ranging from straightforward speeding tickets to complex Reckless Homicide charges. I thrive on challenging cases, firmly believing that extraordinary situations call for an extraordinary lawyer. My recognition as a Top Rated Lawyer for six consecutive years is a testament to my commitment to excellence, a goal I strive to achieve with each passing year. Client testimonials consistently highlight not just the exceptional outcomes I've achieved but also the care, concern, and meticulous attention to detail I bring to every case. This approach has not only fulfilled but exceeded their expectations, helping them rebuild their lives.

In addition to my practice, I contribute to the legal community as a faculty member of the National College of DUI Defense and serve on two national DUI/DWI Law committees, including one focusing on the evolving legal landscape surrounding marijuana use while driving. My involvement in these areas places me at the forefront of this dynamic field of law. I also have the privilege of teaching trial advocacy to both law students and practicing attorneys. Certified as an Instructor, I specialize in the administration and critical analysis of Standardized Field Sobriety Tests, emphasizing their "margin of inaccuracy" and how it can be challenged during cross-examination. My teaching method, like my litigation approach, is engaging and educational, aimed at leading to the best possible outcome for my clients.

My litigation and teaching styles prioritize success and positive reinforcement over fear and intimidation, blending these skills to provide unparalleled defense. This approach enables me to negotiate favorable resolutions for my clients, often avoiding the stress and uncertainty of trial and reducing costs. My aim is always a win-win resolution, deserving of my clients' trust and confidence.
