I’m oblivious when it comes to how the justice system works. Not only that but I was in trouble out of state. After calling several attorneys late at night, Jerry Lykins made me feel the most confident. Our consultation gave me clarity. He walked me through the criminal court process with ease. I felt his sureness through his voice with my situation and what the most possible outcomes would be. His influence in the area alone gave me a positive outlook. With all the felonies I had been charged with, this should’ve been a 6 months process, at least. It was done within 2 months; a month and a half precisely. Financially, he took many things into account while dealing with my case. I’m young, in college, and from out of state so he was considerate and fair with his pricing. Jerry genuinely cared about me. I will forever be grateful for him for saving me from having wasted my life or at least struggled for the rest of my life. So, thank you Jerry, truly.

Jerry is a compassionate and very knowledgeable attorney. He went above and beyond they "typical" role of a lawyer. He added great listening, reflection and open communication. He always found a way to make more time for me. I, without hesitation, highly recommend Jerry Lykins.

Expedient, professional and compassionate

I would highly recommend Jerry lykins. Jerry is a very knowledgeable and experienced attorney. Not only did he help me to a great outcome in a serious criminal case. He helped me become a better person. I belive Jerry handled my case at a personal level. He was very professional and informative throughout the court process. Most importantly led me in the direction I needed to help with my personal issues. Thanks again Jerry.

Worst experience I ever had with a lawyer!

Intelligent, insightful, compassionate, hard working and connected. Outstanding representation and he secured our son a very favorable sentence despite a fair but tough judge.

Best lawyer ever. Very compassionate and understanding. Helped explain everything being brought up against his client and reassured that everything was going to be okay. Goes above and beyond for his clients to help them out. Will always recommend him and always go back to him if we need to. Thanks Jerry for everything you have done for us.

Jerry is a great attorney and one of the best. I would highly recommend his expertise in law. When I got into a car accident I didn’t know what to do or think. When I found Jerry he assured me he would get the best for me and kept me informed the whole time of my case. He’s caring toward his clients and their feelings. If I eve would to have any trouble again he will be the guy I call. Great attorney, great person and great lawyer. Idk where I would be today without him. Thanks again Jerry for all your help. Greatly appreciated. I would do anything for for him.

Jerry is my go to guy when it comes to criminal matters. I know I can refer clients to him and not worry about the legal advice and care they'll receive. As a fellow attorney, he has my full endorsement.

A few years back I got myself into some legal troubles. I found Jerry Lykins and hired him to help me resolve my issues. I was so impressed by him. Not only as my counsel but as a man. He took the time not only to give me a a great outcome on my case, he also took the time to see me as a person and not just a client. His personal approach is part of what helped me turn around my life. He is an excellent attorney and an even better man. I have recommended him multiple times in the last 5 years and will continue to do so. If you find yourself in trouble with the law in West Michigan I highly recommend you contact Jerry.

Jerry is such a strong advocate for people. Very caring, and truly educates you about your legal choices. Would highly recommend him.

I felt he went above and beyond as my attorney. Even after the case was closed, Jerry called several times to check in with me. I really felt like he cared and went far beyond my expectations. I was very happy with my results.

Jerry helped me out with a few cases. And I can honestly say he was there to save day! He’s kind hearted and really will look into your case and give you the best options on what to do next. He wants the best for you. He puts himself in your shoes and goes from there. You can’t beat this type of good loyal buisness. I wish everyone could be a little bit like Jerry!

As an attorney I frequently have clients ask me to refer them to a criminal defense attorney and Jerry Lykins is the attorney I recommend. Jerry is a highly skilled trial attorney with a great reputation in our legal community. Jerry always provides outstanding representation to the folks I refer to him and with Jerry's experience, expertise and work ethic, I always know that they are in great hands.

I've known Jerry professionally for years as I am a therapist in town. Jerry is professionally competent and genuinely cares for the clients he's representing. He is quick to return calls and communicates well regarding ongoing needs for his clients. The men I've worked with often feel shame about being in the criminal justice system. Jerry approaches the process with a great deal of care and compassion, putting the client more at ease.

Gerald Lykins

Mr. Lykins helped me with sensitive legal advise, in a very candid, simple way that I could understand. Dealing with the legal system is stressful, and it was a great deal of help to have an attorney who cares enough to put energy into open communication with his clients, quickly answering any questions we had, no matter what day it was. He was there for the entire legal process, beginning to end. I think its really important to have an attorney that you really trust to have your best interest at important times like these where your reputation, money, and possibly freedom are on the line. Thanks to him, the sentence was greatly reduced, and things were all handled in a timely manner. Thank you!!!

Jerry Lykins is an excellent choice for whatever legal issues one may encounter. He not only has an abundance of clients, he makes sure he is on top of your case as well. Jerry is no doubt one of the better choices as far as being competent in any legal issue, as well as being a life long friend no of mine. I not only call on him for advice about my new careers, he genuinely cares that I live my best life. Thanks for all of your help Mr. Lykins.

Jerry was my attorney on multiple occasions and was extraordinarily knowledgeable and had great communication throughout the process. He would always go the extra mile regardless how busy he was which was very comforting. He will show up to every meeting highly prepared. If you are in search for a great attorney he is what you are looking for.

Great lawyer. Excellent communication for advice and wise counsel. Extremely knowledgeable about DUI law.

Very experienced guy! Highly recommend his services

I hired Jerry after receiving my First Offense OWI. Being my first offense, I had no idea of what to expect. Jerry helped me understand each step of the process during the time leading up to and the time after my trial. I can’t imagine anyone else doing more for me than he did. Highly recommend.

Hiring Mr. Lykins for my impaired driving charge was the best choice I made. With his knowledge and honesty we were able to have it reduced to careless driving and a civil point infraction. From beginning to end he was upfront and transparent about his intentions which made me feel comfortable enough to do the same. I am so happy with the outcome and would recommend his services to anyone who is looking for help with a DUI natured case!

I have never had any need for legal defense in my life - until I did. It stemmed from a pile on of ridiculous, but serious, charges from an over zealous cop. Thankfully I was referred to Attorney Jerry Lykins. He was extremely thorough, diligent, did everything he said and more - all within his fair and original cost estimate. I highly recommend his services to anyone in search of great legal defense.

Jerry is incredible at what he does; he's thorough, precise and upfront about whatever situation you're facing. He's immensely reassuring that he can help, and he definitely knows what he's doing. In my own personal experience, I can say that Jerry really went above and beyond. Jerry levels with you in a way that makes you feel like you're talking with a friend who's there for you, and I think that's what we all truly want with an attorney. I'm really happy I went with Lykins Law; thanks, Jerry!

Jerry was very detailed and communicative with my case. Not only was he able to gain the best outcome for my situation, but he also gave me insight on what was to come beyond my legal issues. I would recommend Lykins Law to friends and family time and time again.

Jerry is one of the most knowledgeable and caring legal professionals whom I have had the opportunity to meet. There is no question that Jerry will get the job done for you while prioritizing your needs.

I contacted Jerry while living out of state about coming back to Michigan for a 2 felony drug warrants dating back 7 years. I immediately was impressed that on the first call he said he would go check with the court to find out more details. Having spoke with a few attorneys, he was the only one to go above the usual quote a price and say "Call me a week before you come back."

I ended up setting up an agreement with him to represent me in this matter and with how everything turned out, I know this was the best decision I could have made. He was always ready to answer any questions and I never doubted his commitment to find the best resolution for me. Working with the Judge and Prosecutor, I managed to have both felonies drop to 1 misdemeanor. I was preparing myself for a least 6-12 month in jail and years of probation. A fine was imposed but nothing more.

I was cautious when reading reviews while looking because, like many other things, I know they can be padded/fake but I can assure you I was in a situation of a del/manufacture along with maintaining drug house warrant. Without Mr. Jerry Lykins I doubt things would have turned out as favorable.

Thank You very much Jerry

I know Jerry on a professional level and all I can say is wow. It is very impressive to see his legal mind at work and how he approaches an issue. He is a creative problem solver and one of the best I've seen.

Effective Advocate! I would recommend Jerry Lykins to anyone looking for a great Attorney in the area of criminal law. I had a situation and Jerry was able to effectively represent me and resolve the matter as he suggested it would resolve. I would rate him a 10! Thanks Jerry

When I got into a situation when I needed help from an attorney, I was recommended to Jerry and he is very proximate with his work. He is always in communication with his clients and has everything ready to roll when you walk in. As long as you play ball and do what you have to do, he will assist you and use his expertise to help you get the results you want. Any issues? I recommend Jerry Lykins and his rate for service does not rip a hole into your wallet.

I greatly appreciated Mr. Lykins' professionalism and compassion in dealing with my case. I'd never had to deal with the court before and although it was a minor traffic offense, he worked quickly and diligently to ensure that the process was as painless as possible and negotiated it out of my record and the points off of my license. At first I did not think that I would need to retain an attorney, but after everything was said and done, I was very thankful that I had chosen to work with Jerry Lykins. He was knowledgeable about the process and put me at ease right away. He saved me from unnecessary fines and a lot of stress.
