About Jack
Based in Glendale, Jack helps clients address DUI charges and DMV licensing matters across Los Angeles County.

Akop Jack Ter-Saakyan was admitted to the California State Bar on December 1, 2009. His State Bar number is 266641, and the public record lists his license as active. His office is at 144 N Glendale Ave, Suite 200, Glendale, CA 91206. Verify Jack’s California attorney record.
JackDUI focuses on the questions that follow an arrest: what the prosecution must prove, what deadlines apply, and what can be done about driving privileges. The criminal case and DMV process need separate attention.
A useful defense starts with the records, not a promised result. The review may include the reason for the stop, recorded statements, field tests, breath-device records, blood collection and laboratory procedures, witness accounts, and any alleged prior convictions. Each case calls for its own assessment.
Explore DUI defense services for first offenses, felony allegations, injury cases, drug DUI, under-21 matters, and DMV hearings. Jack serves Glendale, Pasadena, Burbank, and Downtown Los Angeles from his Glendale office.
Bring your citation, release papers, court notice, DMV paperwork, and a timeline of what happened. Discuss the scope of representation, communication, fees, and next steps. A consultation should leave you with a clearer understanding of what needs attention and what information is still missing.
Identify court dates, DMV deadlines, release conditions, and evidence that needs to be preserved.
Examine the driving allegation, police procedures, testing, and available records for the particular case.
Evaluate evidence-based challenges, negotiations, and trial preparation without assuming one approach fits everyone.
Discuss the available options, practical consequences, and questions that matter to you.
