We would recommend Mr Lykkebak without hesitation. He represented a member of my family with great skill and understanding. He cares and does the his very best to represent his client. We could not have made a better choice.

Having Donald Lykkebaks representation was a huge relief. He was always attentive to any question I asked him, and easy to talk to. He has always left me with the feeling that every effort possible was made when handling my legal matter. I would refer Mr. Lykkebaks expertise to anyone in need and he will be my first thought if I ever need legal representation again.

When you look for a great product, typically you look for a specialist in that product, and within that industry, you look for the best provider of the product. Mr. Donald Lykkebak is one of these individuals your look for when in need of criminal defense. He is a "Superstar" in this industry, and a champion for his clients. I was fortunate to have been recommended to him by another attorney acquaintance. She told me, "If I was looking for representation for myself, based on the charges you have, I would look for the best possible attorney available, and that would be Donald Lykkebak. He has over 30 yrs experience, has a great reputation, and is highly respected by the prosecution, judges, and attorneys." I was and am a client of Mr. Lykkebak. I say was and am, because even after my case was resolved, I still communicate with him, and he is always there to answer questions and provide any support. If you have been in any legal situation previously, you understand that there are always lose ends to tie up, and Mr. Lykkebak is always there, every time. He is very resourceful with all aspects and needs of his clients. I had the experience of walking into a courtroom and having all of the other attorneys sit up straight and acknowledge Mr. Lykkebak as we entered. I have to say, this was very comforting given the situation. At that moment, I was reaffirmed, that I was in good hands. One of the attorneys even asked where the cameras were, referring to Mr. Lykkebak's recent appearance on TV regarding a high profile case. Even the judge acknowledged Mr. Lykkebak. Regarding his reputation I can provide this example of my experience. We were able to present historical information and facts regarding a situation between the probation office and outsourced vendor, that outlined impropriety, and Mr. Lykkebak was successful in having the judge review the facts and take corrective action in our favor, without hesitation. This only happens when the judge knows the track record well enough to know that Mr. Lykkebak is presenting a valid complaint, and one that he will likely win. He has the ability to present arguments in a way that are very effective with the prosecution. They listen objectively to Mr. Lykkebak and always work with him to find a just resolution. Moreover, Mr. Lykkebak is plainly a good and decent man who makes you feel comfortable through every step of the process. I really don't know what else to say other than thank you very much Mr. Lykkebak, I am very satisfied with your representation. You are an amazing attorney and friend. Cordially, Your respectful client.

I met Donald Lykkebak 32 years ago at the age of 17 because of a legal issue. So if you are looking for a review on a real Defense Attorney, please know that I have many years of experience with him to speak of. I have hired Mr. Lykkebak on 4 different occasions to represent me. My cases were of very serious accusations by both State and Federal systems that could have landed me in prison for life had I been convicted. Donald Lykkebak has successfully defended me on every case. Donald is a 'trial' Lawyer, and more importantly, has a passion for winning. One of my cases indeed went to a full blown trial, so I have first hand knowledge as to how Mr. Lykkebak operates in such arena. In that particular State case, I was exposed to a life sentence if convicted. The State offered me 'time served' for the 1 hour I actually spent in jail before I bonded out. I was innocent, and while most people would have taken the State's so-called deal of time served, instead of facing life, I did not. I had full confidence in Donald Lykkebak's skills as a Defense Lawyer, and placed my life in his hands. After a long, stressful trial, I was aquitted on all counts. Again: I placed my life in this man's hands. I would have NEVER done this with any other Lawyer. I want people to know what I know about this man Donald Lykkebak. First and foremost, he is extremely honest and a man of high integrity. This translates not only into community affairs, but also within the State and Federal judicial systems. Donald is esteemed by Lawyers, Prosecutors, and Judges alike. I could always see how respected he is, even by the adversary. He puts his client's interest first and foremost. When it comes to defending his clients freedom and reputation, Donald will be extremely aggressive in his defense. If you have to go to trial with your freedom on the line, like I have done more than once, you better damn well know you have a man that can pull it off, to where you go back home to your family and lifestyle as you know it. I want to make this clear to any of you reading this review and are considering a Defense Attorney: IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO GO UP AGAINST A STATE OR FEDERAL PROSECUTOR AND ACTUALLY WIN, EVEN WITH A ATTORNEY. Donald Lykkebak knows exactly how to navigate these systems and win. And if you have made it impossible for him to win, due to rock solid evidence against you, then you can be sure that Donald will work it out to where you have mitigated exposure to loss of liberty. And here is another area I have learned from Donald Lykkebak over the 32 years I have known him: Although you may 'think' the system has you nailed with so-called rock solid evidence, the system itself may have very well broken some rules and even laws to gather that 'evidence'. I had hired Donald for my girlfriend Jamie, thinking that she was headed to prison because the 'evidence' looked so rock solid. I figured that Donald would and could get her the very best plea deal, because there was no way to defend her against such 'evidence'. HOW WRONG I WAS! Donald Lykkebak, being the awesome Defense Attorney that I have always known, augued the case on some extremely obscure case law that he had spend many hours researching. It was determined by the court that the State violated Jamie's right, and the case was thown out. This is what Donald Lykkebak does People! And I am so proud of this man for what he does to Defend his clients. I can not say enough good about this man and all he has done for me as my Attorney. I owe my life several times over to his skills and integrity. If you want case law or my own personal court transcripts about what this man has done for me, then call me. It is my pleasure to speak of him in such a endearing way. What this man has done for me over the years you simply cannot put a price on. My name is NIck. Call anytime before 9pm EST and ask me whatever you wish about this man and you will get real answers with documents to back it up.

Donald Lykkebak was paid approximately $28,000 to represent me in a criminal case in full. He was very rude and disinterested in assisting me. My family had to hire another attorney at the last minute. Lykkebak wanted me to take a plea deal and tried to convince my family that if I was found guilty that I would probably receive 30+ years. My family hired another attorney who was very successful in representing me. Several serious charges were dropped and I was found not guilty on the most serious charges. The family is still traumatized at the way Lykkebak treated paying him thousands of dollars.
