Jerry Childs is an alumnus of Loyola Law School (Juris Doctor, 2001) and the University of California, Santa Barbara (BA, Political Science, 1996). He has assisted in the defense and prosecution of civil litigation cases, including personal injury, real estate, contracts, medical practice, and toxic torts; family law issues such as dissolutions, child custody and support actions, and administrative law matters involving professional licensure and unlawful detainers.

Jerry believes strongly in being candid with his clients. He'll tell you up front if your case can be won, if compromise will be necessary, and when a legal battle is not worth the financial outlay and emotional strain it will cost you. He never makes promises he can't fulfill and prides himself on keeping clients fully informed about both the positive and negative aspects of their cases.

Professionalism and cordiality toward opposing counsel are Jerry's preferred strategy. "It's far better - and cheaper! - than strong-arm tactics or useless posturing..." Jerry observes. "When other attorneys understand that you can be trusted to act ethically and openly, almost invariably the case becomes easier."

Before joining his wife, Erin M. Rhames, as co-owner of this law firm, Jerry worked with Wilkins, Drolshagen & Czeshinski, LLP; the Law Offices of Richard Reinjohn, Los Angeles; and Smith, Smith & Harter. He has also served in the U.S. Army Reserve, achieving the rank of Captain.

Why Every Good Defense Lawyer Needs a Private Investigator
In criminal defense, a lawyer is only as good as the facts they can prove. No matter how skilled an attorney is in the courtroom, they can't build a solid defense without solid evidence. This is why every good defense lawyer needs a private investigator (PI) on their team.
Common Pennsylvania Criminal Charges Explained
Navigating the criminal justice system can be overwhelming, especially if you’re unfamiliar with the charges you or someone you care about may be facing. Pennsylvania has its own set of laws that define crimes and penalties, and understanding these charges is the first step in addressing them. Below, we break down some of the most common criminal charges in Pennsylvania and what they entail.
The Dual Sovereignty Doctrine or how you can be tried for the same offense twice.
The United States legal system is built on the foundation of federalism, which establishes a balance of power between the federal government and the individual states. One principle that exemplifies this balance is the Dual Sovereignty Doctrine. This doctrine, though sometimes controversial, plays a critical role in the prosecution of crimes and the protection of justice across the country. In this blog, we will explore the origins, implications, and criticisms of the Dual Sovereignty Doctrine.
