Jerry brings experience not only as a great attorney and legal consultant, but also as a great human being. His integrity and respect are evident by simply walking with him through the Courthouse; many know him by name, and offer a smile and friendly 'hello Jerry' as they pass by. Jerry brings IQ to the table as well as EQ, and takes extra time to truly listen to his clients. He works through re-enactments, recreating situations and emotions that can help both him and his clients understand actions taken by individuals. He delivers a big city product in a small town package. I wouldn't want to work with anyone else for any legal consultation. Jerry is the best - period.

He's one of the greatest. Mr. Perry has an amount of knowledge that can only be gained through decades of experience. we are talking about a guy that likes to win, and hes damn good at it too. He met with me multiple times a week, made sure that nothing was left out. He didn't just talk about the case he got a feel for it, connecting with e personally before anything else. He has this sense about him, so precise down to the littlest details. Multiple times he took his personal car during time i know he would of rather been home with his family and we went to the spots where various things had happened and it was thanks to his hard work and dedication we were able to win (by a landslide). Being represented by Mr. Perry gave me a sense of relief. i walked away from this experience not only with a clean record but life lessons and insight into the real world as well. Thank you Mr. Perry

My lawyer was hesitant at first about the case and really took along time and I had ups and down feelings- mixed emotions but I know why now and he became very close to me as a friend and lawyer. I will recommend him to others.

Mr. Perry is professional and personable. He cares about your case, certainly, but he also cares about you, and all the problems that arise with legal difficulties outside of simple compensation and an amenable verdict and sentence. I had to pay Mr. Perry for his services, sure. But at every step of the way, he made me feel like I was someone worthy of help, not just a contract. God forbid, if I ever need such services in the future, I know who to call. I also know who I'd refer: Jerome Perry.
