“Deanna Lynette Saunders agreed to a voluntary manslaughter plea deal. She is sentenced to 8yrs 4months. Saunders stabbed her then boyfriend Zerrick DeJuan Alexander in #upland March 21 2018. Zerrick died hours later after bleeding out from his injury.”
Successfully Reduced Client’s Murder Charges to Voluntary Manslaughter
My client was charged with one count of First Degree Premeditated Murder a violation of PC 187. She was looking at the possibility of spending the rest of her life in Prison after a tragic incident involving her now deceased ex-boyfriend. My client and the victim had a big fight that erupted when my client grabbed a knife, and stabbed her then boyfriend. He then refused medical treatment for over 15 hours before finally succumbing to his mortal wounds, and passing away. It was a tragic story for all involved. My client and the victim had been in a dating relationship together for 8 years, and together were raising three children together. After a careful review of the evidence, and many hours speaking with the assigned Prosecutor, it was determined that both sides believed this case should settle.
After many talks, we finally reached an agreement that my client would be pleading guilty to a reduced charge, and sentenced to a total of 8 years and 4 months in State Prison. This plea deal allows her the time to accept punishment for his actions, while also giving her the possibility of seeing her young kids again – while they are still barely teenagers. Had my client been convicted of the Murder charges she originally faced, she could have been sentenced to 25 years to life in a State Prison, with a possibility of Parole only after she were to serve 25 years in Prison.

I contacted them via their website page and was pleasantly surprised when they contacted me in such a short time. I got in contact with Adam Jackson who was willing to assist me with his expertise regarding some questions I had about my past criminal record. He was extremely knowledgeable on the subject and offered his best solution for me. I would highly recommend them if you are in need of legal assistance.

Inland Empire Criminal Defense is the place to go if you’re having legal problems. Adam is a knowledgeable, friendly, and very punctual guy. I was having issues with my case being heard and constantly postponed. Adam put the gloves on and got the courts to schedule a mandatory settlement conference and long story short after going back and forth for almost two years my case was dismissed!
If you need an awesome lawyer who knows the law, is going to fight hard for you, and will work with your financial needs definitely give Adam a call!
LaShan Brown
Adam is an excellent attorney. He knows his stuff. When he couldn’t make a court date he made sure to send a colleague and he was good as well. Adam was very helpful and informative about everything..

I hired Mr. Jackson following a dui and some other things. He went above and beyond for me. Even the times when it was very frustrating and I was a bit hard to deal with he still stood and fought for me. I am very satisfied with the outcome. Although I do have some penalties to pay it could have been a lot worse and I believe he really got it reduced very much. Thank you Mr. Jackson for being patient and understanding even during the time last I was not. I highly recommend him. VP

I was not happy with the Public Defender, and I called Adam Jackson, and after looking at my case, he took me on as a client. He didn’t promise me anything, and he got to work. Well, I had six charges, and in the end, I had just 2 with no jail time. I don’t plan to get in any trouble, but I would call Mr. Jackson if I did. Just looking at the Police report, he felt there were things wrong with the case, which is his experience.
Annie W.
Friendly and welcoming service , very informative and helpful. Adam was very easy to work with. I would definitely recommend him!
Hilda M.
Excellent criminal defense Inland Empire very successful we recommend it 100% is guaranteed you will be happy with the results im very happy thanks God🙏😍
Raymond R.
I was in the most unfortunate situation one I never thought I would ever be in. I did not know any attorneys and frankly did not trust them. But sometimes you have only one choice and an attorney is the only way. I found Adam Jackson through a group legal insurance and chose him because he seemed to do only one thing Criminal Justice. Best choice I could have made. Adam answered my calls, kept me informed the whole way and was always there. His fees were reasonable and he even decreased the fees when the case was reduced. Ultimately he got the case dismissed and me and my family are very thankful. If you are looking for a good criminal attorney look no further. Thanks again Mr. Jackson.
Jen D.
Found them online and asked them questions for advise on a case I have pending. Was super helpful and upfront with what yo expect and what do. I’ve never dealt with filing a criminal charge ever so the process is a bit daunting. I would highly recommend. Thank you for your help!
Anne W.
Adam is very informative, helpful, friendly, and doesn’t judge. I felt welcomed in his office from day one to the end of our court dates. Adam won my case and I was very pleased with his work.
Joe M.
I was pulled over for speeding late 2017 and subsequently arrested for an old warrant that I had assumed was behind me. Being a ex convict with a lengthy criminal record, I thought my life was over. Even though I was off parole and it had been almost 10 years since I was in any kind of trouble, I knew that based on my record I was probably looking at serious prison time.
After bailing out I began searching for an attorney and I consulted with numerous lawyers and law firms looking for someone who understood my situation without too many questions and who would put me at ease. Adam Jackson did that! From my initial phone consultation, he was able to understand my situation without too many questions, and seemed to be very familiar with the rancho courthouse and other courts in San Bernardino. It was the best decision I’ve made in a long time. We outlined our goals from the beginning and I felt we were on the same page the whole time. He was never hard to reach, and always called me immediately if there were any changes made by the DA. His retainer fees were very reasonable and was extremely understanding when I asked him for a payment plan.
In the end, he was able to get me the best of all possible outcomes in court. I can’t say enough about Adam!!
I highly recommend him to anyone who is in any kind of legal situation. Best decision I’ve ever made
Good luck

If you feel scared in anyway. Hire Attorney Jackson. You won’t regret it. Every case is different but let him fight for you. He saved my family life and job.

Wow, just wow. I have worked with many high-end Attorneys and Adam has exceeded my expectations, along with every client we have had! He is passionate and goes beyond for you. He is great at negotiating & hears what you say and will fight for what you want. His defense motions are always well written. He will stay active throughout your case & assertively communicates with the opposing side. He has a ton of great experience and always at a reasonable price (payment plans included). Hirehim!
Brittany R.
My experience working with Adam was amazing. He was able to help me feel comfortable and hopeful throughout my court process. Before meeting him, I spoke with over 15 different lawyers in the area. None of them made me feel hopeful, were unreasonably priced, some made me feel guilty, or just had pessimistic views overall. Adam was the complete opposite of that. Not only is he generous and understanding, but he is very reliable, prompt, and works hard to get the best outcomes for his clients. My case was dismissed and I’m so grateful that I chose him to represent me. You will not regret working with him. I recommend him 100% to anyone!

I’m a business owner, and a college student and I’m literally just 1 week away from graduation. I was referred to Adam through a close family friend and all I have to say is that Adam is awesome. From beginning to end, he was professional, respectful, and compassionate about my situation. He explained everything to me in terms of cost, what to expect, and he stayed true to his word throughout this entire process. On the day of court, Adam went in with his boxing gloves on and fought for me and my sense is that he wasn’t going to back down by any means if there was any opposition waiting for him. He went the distance and he was honest about what he could do, and he just made it work. He still has my head spinning! Just when I thought I didn’t have a chance, Adam made it possible for me to enjoy my life again, and he made a way for me to have a second chance to continue on with my life, and my career. If you are looking for an attorney, trust me, this is the guy to go with! He’s reasonable, trustworthy, and he gets the job done. If I could, I would give him 10 stars! Thank you Adam.”

Adam Jackson. Well let me tell you, he is a BEAST. Ofcouse, in a good way. He went to court and fought for me. When I thought my life was gonna change by getting 16 years in state prison, here came Adam, fought for me and got me my freedom back. NO JAIL TIME. Thanks to him and thank God, I got my life back.

Adam did a great job with my case. Even now 2 years after the fact, he still remembers me and I refer him to everyone I know with a criminal matter. Thanks again Adam!

Adam Jackson is the man to call if you need an attorney to represent you .i am grateful he helped me get my case dismissed. At first i was worried because i had never been in trouble with the law but he made me feel at ease that everything would be okay. Adam knows how to do his job and he will fight for you. Call him and you will not regret it. Thank you Adam.
Anthony A.
Adam hooked me up! He was the first of all the attorneys I contacted to respond here on yelp. I was tempted to go with another firm, but, his price was really reasonable and he stayed in close contact with me the entire time. He was very fast at getting the ball rolling from the get-go. I felt very comfortable with him even though 98% of our communication and payment transactions were through yelp, email and Adobe Sign. He provided me with all the assistance I needed to help my motion for expungement of a DUI. Within two months, he called me and told me that the motion was granted and my case was expunged!!!
You have helped change my life, thank you!!
Jeff L.
Let me start by saying if I could put 10 stars I would. Mr Jackson is a fantastic lawyer. He helped me with 2 of my cases and got one dismissed. The other case went to trail and I felt nervous, because I never been thought a court process before, however he made me feel very confertable with the process and made me laugh. I went in the court room feeling much better. He is extremely smart, and knew what questions to ask and how to ask them. After a lengthy process I ended up wining my case thanks to his ability to articulate my situation. I also noticed that he was a good writer, and that added alot of weight towards my case. He will definitely be my family lawyer for years to come. I highly recommend using him for all your issues!
Belen M.
I heard about Mr.Jackson skeptical at first as many attorneys all they want is money, so I went into a consultation and got all my questions answered to the point he made me feel comfortable and went on with my case along with him as my attorney. His way of helping and assisting me every step of the way is what everyone needs during a criminal battle. through a family member whom he helped, I was very He always answered my phone calls and if he wasn’t available he would always return my calls back or text me and advise me of any situation. Adam has the best litigation skills towards all his customers. Would always recommend him as I only recommend people I trust and thats how he made me feel trust towards him and security.
Christian M
The assistant was very helpful, she speaks spanish. The Attorney was very informative and made me feel at ease with my father DUI case. I felt assured with the phone conversation I had with him, that my father was in good hands.

I contacted Adam via yelp on a Saturday night past midnight, I was extremely surprised and pleased to be contacted back less than 2 minutes later. Adam was very helpful, experienced, honest, and considerate to my situation.
Thanks again.

Adam has an extraordinary ability to quickly and intelligently determine what a criminal case is all about. Adam is my go to guy for a good brainstorming session on strategy. His kindness, generosity, and intelligence are limitless. He is a lawyer’s lawyer and a ferocious advocate for his clients.
Rosie C.
I referred my friend to Adam when she got in trouble for a DUI, she was scared things would go downhill and it would ruin her future because of a bad decision. When she met with Adam, he explained the process and assured her he would take care of things. In the end she did not lose her driving privileges and was glad Adam took care of everything for her. He is knowledgeable and very professional. I will definitely continue to refer him.
Michael S.
I have known Adam Jackson professionally for seven years. If I, a family member, or friend ever had a criminal issue I would go to Adam. As a fellow attorney, I can tell you he’s defended some real tough cases and has always done right by his clients.
Keen legal mind, aggressive negotiator, and persuasive advocate. He also has a great sense of humor.
As a bonus, ask him for restaurant recommendations – he’s never steered me wrong.
Jayd B.
You never know when you will need to call a lawyer to come get you out of trouble, but you can rest assured that IE Criminal Defense will be there for you. Attorney Adam Jackson believes every person is entitled to an advocate for their rights, and will stand strong as that advocate for all of his clients. I highly recommend Adam and IE Criminal Defense for all your legal defense needs.
Denise L.
Attorney Jackson is my go-to attorney when dealing with any kind of criminal matter. He is up for any challenge and will zealously advocate for his client. He is very knowledgeable and experienced. I highly recommend Inland Empire Criminal Defense and Attorney Adam Jackson.
Dom
Adam Jackson is a highly intelligent and skilled defense attorney. He is highly respected in the legal community and has an amazing repertoire with IE DA’s and Judges. It sounds cliche, but he WILL fight for you and/or your loved ones, tooth and nail, respectfully. Whether in the IE or elsewhere, you want Adam Jackson on your side. I’m lucky to have him on mine.
SP
Adam is one of the hardest working attorneys in the business. He’ll handle your case with the utmost care, empathy, and dedication! You will not be sorry you called him.
Justin I.
Based on years of knowing Mr. Jackson I can attest that he is a great person both in and out of court and is someone you definitely want in your corner.
Adam has a passion (not to mention bounds of knowledge & experience) for criminal law that shows in the results he gets for his clients. He handles all criminal matters and despite being an aggressive and zealous advocate for his clients he is also very personable and upfront with them.
So in a nutshell, if you find yourself accused of a crime in the Inland Empire (and surrounding areas), hire Adam!!!
P. G.
I’ve known Mr. Jackson since law school. He has always been one to extend a hand and provide valuable advice even when there’s literally nothing in it for him. He truly cares about people. As a litigator myself, Adam is who I seek out for trial advice and my go-to for anything criminal law related. Adam is smart, creative, and a bulldog in the courtroom, and is somebody you need to have on your side when you find yourself in trouble with the law.
Josh M.
Adam Jackson is the best attorney in the San Bernardino County area. Specifically Rancho Cucamonga courthouse, SB central, and of course Victorville up north. He has even been as far as Indio, Joshua tree AND Blythe Courthouses. He is the absolute best litigator in these courthouses. And those courthouses are ruled by oppressive District Attorneys and Judges who treat the area like personal fiefdoms.
The litigation skills of Mr. Jackson are second to none. Do you understand that? You need Mr. Jackson for court. He will proudly stand side by side with you, as ultimate judgment is rendered.
Jessica
The best criminal attorney in the IE! Adam is highly adept at making the complicated legal process seem understandable and less overwhelming. He is my go-to guy for any advice in criminal law. His level of dedication to his clients is refreshing and I highly recommend him!
Elizabeth
Words could not nearly describe the gratitude I have for Attorney Adam Jackson. I had no idea how to approach my DUI case. I had never been in any sort of trouble short of a traffic ticket for talking on my phone. Mr. Jackson was always very helpful and provided me updates on my case and addressed all my questions and concerns.
Mr. Jackson is one whom I would highly recommend. He brings great value to any case with his professionalism and knowledge. He is the only criminal attorney you are ever going to need.
Stephanie
Adam saved my life! He made a complicated process seem very easy and painless to navigate. He is highly knowledgeable and very responsive. I so appreciate everything that he did for me, and I highly recommend him!
Angel
Adam is a phenomenal lawyer. Being charged with a DUI was a stressful situation for me, but Adam was able to calm me down immediately with his easy going nature and his strong desire to listen and understand the pertinent facts of my case. He is well known and respected in the Riverside Court, with all sides, the prosecution, defense, and judge. I have no doubt that having his experience in my corner helped my case get dismissed. While I can not guarantee the same result, I know Adam will fight hard for you. He is willing to make payment arrangements and meet on short notice. I will recommend all of my family and friends to him. Thank you Adam!

The Straight Shooter
Adam is an exceptional attorney who kept me updated of my case throughout the entire process. He knows a lot about the law and cares even more. He was honest and communicated the truth in a manner that was easy for me to understand. If you need a criminal defense attorney in Southern California, you should hire him. He helped me get through the process efficiently and thoughtfully.
Zoey
Very kind and willing to help
I was hoping to retain him to find me some penal code. In the end, he informed me that the language I was looking for does not exist. He is very responsive and willing to help. He tried to understand my needs and would explain things to me before he could even make any money. Not a lot of attorneys would take that time to do that.
Lilly Hernandez
