Jason is an exceptional lawyer. Do not even consider any other criminal defense attorney. He goes above and beyond for all his clients. He's a family man and it shows in his character. He is caring and understanding of the case on a human level. He looks at the circumstances of the case and represents you the best way he can. He doesn't use the tactics used by most of the lawyers in the area that use fear to keep the client on edge. Even when he is uncertain of the outcome, he is honest and comforting. He is transparent, genuine, and diligent. His communication is excellent and he sincerely does everything in his power to get the best possible outcome. Anytime I had a question or concern he answered immediately and included as many details as possible with so much thought and consideration by putting himself in my shoes. There's a reason he is so busy. I highly recommend him for all your legal needs pertaining to criminal cases. It'll be your money worth spent. Jason, thank you to you and your team for your service. I am forever grateful.

Jason truly has your best interest in mind. Does anything and everything in his control to help you and make you feel comfortable. Always available and quick to respond. Communicates and explains everything clearly. Cannot express how thankful I am! Would highly recommend !!

I wholeheartedly recommend Jason Dunkle not only because of the exceptional results but because he displayed integrity, professionalism and trustworthiness. He was more than fair with fees. His follow-through and communication was excellent. He communicated every step of the way in detail so that we always knew what was going on with the case. We never had to chase him. My son's case was challenging by all standards. The resolution was far beyond what we had hoped for. Jason is rare among attorneys. We are very grateful to him and his firm and highly recommend him.

Do not look any further if you are looking for a knowledgeable Attorney who not only knows the law thoroughly but will do everything possible to secure the best outcome. Attorney Dunkle charges a fee, as all attorneys do, but he delivers. What he does not charge for is his compassion and understanding that good kids make wrong choices at times. That is priceless. He understands the panic mode students and parents are in when they feel their child's future could be in jeopardy. He guided my son through the process, never promising what he could not deliver. Answered every question allowing us to feel our son was in the best hands possible. I have never written a review for anyone but I need to let any parent or student know that if you are looking for an Attorney that will provide you the best service, Attorney Dunkle is, without a doubt, your choice.

Jason Dunkle resolved an extremely difficult situation for me with very satisfactory results. He is incredibly responsive, professional, honest and comes highly recommended!

To start off, Jason Dunkle is one of the most sincere, hardworking individuals that l I have ever come across. From the very beginning, he told me that he planned to give it his all to make sure everything would work out and that he would treat me just as he would if I was his own child. Throughout my whole case, he encouraged me and my family and advised that everything would work out in the end. There would be times that he took time out of his busy schedule to call or answer my phone calls to give me very detailed updates throughout the process. Not only did he work hard to win a favorable outcome, but he even contacted my school to explain the situation I was in and gave details to the school so they wouldn’t give me any harsh sanctions. If I had to go through the process again, I would pick Jason Dunkle as my attorney in a heartbeat. Jason not only understands that people make mistakes and that people can be in the wrong place at the wrong time. In conclusion, Jason has my full support, and if someone somehow turns out to be in a bad situation and needs a criminal defense attorney in State College or Penn State, I would recommend without any hesitation that they contact Jason Dunkle.

Great service. Friendly people. Honest.

Super competent and a delight to work with. Takes that little bit of extra time to make sure that you know what you need to know. Used him for a matter 2 years ago and sent him a question on it last night. Had an email response (15 minutes later) that helped me understand the issue and move forward.

Jason is a great guy. He was recommended to us by an attorney in our community when my son made a couple of bad choices while a PSU student. He knows the system and the players and provided guidance with expertise and compassion. He responds to emails and questions SO quickly. He facilitated the expungement of both of my son’s issues. Lastly, when my son had questions about how to respond to several questions on an employment application—- six years later—- he was just as responsive and kind as he was the day we met him.

He wasn't able to help my situation. He did, however, email me back VERY quickly in the middle of the night, even. Very informative too. Thank you!

Jason did a fabulous job representing our interests. He was responsive to our every inquiry and need, thoroughly knowledgeable about the substance and procedures related to our case, and achieved a favorable outcome. I highly recommend him.

Awesome Attorney! If you are looking at reviews for Jason Dunkle, then you are in the right place, Search no more!
I can’t even begin to say how much research I put into reading reviews to find the right lawyer to handle my not so easy case.
I had a horrible driving record from my past with prior DUI’s and now years later I was once again facing serious charges. The first most important thing I found when I was searching for an attorney was that there are lawyers with law degrees and then there are Lawyers with law degrees that know how the law works and are respected by the court!
I found that Jason is not afraid to take on challenges and I seen firsthand that he even has the respect court system here. He was able to inform the ADA and explain to them that I had a new life and started a family and that I was not the same person I was years back. He was able to find a good resolution for all involved. This was not easy because of prior record but he got it done! Before JD Law, I had met with at least six other reputable Lawyers before deciding to hire Jason. When I first went to the JD Law office, I was met by Jason’s assistant, Shelley and noticed right away how organized and professional their office was run. I was very happy with the resolution. Otherwise, I would have surely lost my employment and means to take care of my family. I highly recommend JD Law***** Thank You, Jason & Shelley!

Jason is a great lawyer. When I got in trouble for being a stupid college student, he helped me out. It took me a very short time to get my issue resolved. He is quick to respond and always will to help. Thank to him that one mistake I made would not carry on with me for the rest of my life affecting my career and future.

Jason Dunkle is the best lawyer in Centre County. He is passionate about who he is helping and very understanding and not judgmental. I have been working with Jason for 2 years now and he did the best to resolve my case and got the best possible outcome. Without a doubt he is the best lawyer.
Jason works very will with Penn State students, his office is very welcoming. In fact, Jason's office is close to campus which makes it convenient for those who do not have transportation.
I am very thankful and blessed that Jason was able to represent me in my case. Jason is also very quick when it comes to responding and understanding situations. Would highly recommend Jason Dunkle, couldn't thank him enough for what he did.

Jason is an A-class lawyer. I've worked with him for over 5 years at this point and from day 1 till now, he hasn't treated me any differently. He truly wants his clients to be successful and treated approriately. One of the reviews below mentioned that he stays within a person's budget and this could not be more true. He is definitely a reasonable guy and will work with you. He treated me like I was his only client. If you are looking for a top-notch lawyer in the State College area, please look no further than J.D. Law!

Highly recommend! I dealt with Mr. Jason Dunkle a few years back. Unlike another lawyer I had consulted, Jason was VERY RESPONSIVE and helpful not just before I paid him (many lawyers are responsive before they get paid), but even after I paid him. You could tell by speaking to him that he feels and understands what you are going through and that he wants to do anything in his power to help you. Looking back I realize that I shouldn't have even bothered with the other consultation. Jason was the right guy for the job. In fact, I am so pleased with his efforts that I recommended him to all of my friends at Penn State. If all attorneys were like Mr. Dunkle there would be less corruption and justice wouldn't be so flawed. He is the reason I am where I am today.

Well let me begin by saying Jason was my husband second lawyer. The first lawyer was only interested in money and I mean hourly money for promises that never fell through.

Jason was referred to me by a lawyer in Philadelphia, I reached out to him via telephone as I was 300 miles away. He called, he heard my husband statement and immediately stated he would take his case. Of course there was a fee but he also provided a payment arrangement that worked for all of us.

My husband case wasn't small, in fact it was a drug case, not your normal DUI Penn State college student case. Jason haven't had before and was willing to attack it. He promised to win my husband case. After losing trial and willing the case in Appellate court. We thought we'd won but suddenly the DA decided to Appeal the decision. So here comes Supreme Court and months of waiting for an outcome of dismissal.

Jason won!!! Every email, every conversation Jason assured me that we'd win...If your looking for a lawyer Jason Dunkle is it!

Research, Applying the Law & Confidence is what he provided and we are proud to say. Hire Jason he he will deliver.

Words can't even describe how thankful I am that i found Jason for the defense of my DUI charge. I was facing a 3rd and a year in jail and through his knowledge of the laws got it to be my 1st and only 3 days in jail.

3 and a half years later and finally returning to a normal life, i needed help in getting my license back because the dmv "misplaced" it. While he didn't need to even help at all at this point, one conversation with Jason and my license was in the mail the next day.

He really made a difference in the outcome of my situation as a whole and I am forever grateful.

Amazing attorney. He made sure that I was able to get the outcome that I needed. We worked together on this case for 2 years and he stayed in budget and on top of my case. He made me feel as if I was his most important client.

Jason
I hired a lawyer but I made a friend; good luck to you and your practice. The students at Penn State who make one bad or dumb decision need someone like you to ensure it won't define them for the rest of their lives and careers.

Our family is very grateful for the hard work Jason and his staff put forth in assisting our son in the defense of his DUI charge. The amount of time and effort he invested in our case truly made the difference in removing a potential felony conviction from our son's record.

The impact of his counsel and guidance is above and beyond what a client could reasonably expect. My son's future employment prospects are brighter today because of Jason's work. I cannot give them six stars but would if that were an option.

We are forever grateful!
