About Jason S.
Jason S. Dreifuss began his legal training at DePaul University, where he completed a Bachelor of Arts in 2005. He went on to earn his J.D. from the University of Michigan Law School in 2009. Those formative years combined a large public university undergraduate experience with a law school known for rigorous doctrinal and clinical work.
After law school, Dreifuss established his practice in Illinois. He is licensed to practice in that state and has maintained active ties to the local bar community since the start of his career. He joined the Chicago Bar Association in 2009 and has been listed as a member there continuously.
Over the years he has expanded his professional network through memberships that reflect his areas of practice. He became a member of the Illinois Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers in 2014, and of the Lake County Bar Association in 2015. Those affiliations indicate ongoing participation in statewide and county-level legal circles and provide opportunities for continuing legal education and peer engagement.
Dreifuss practices at Dreifuss Law. His work centers on criminal defense representation in Illinois courts. He counsels individuals through the stages of criminal matters, from initial charges through plea considerations and trial when necessary. He also handles related litigation that arises from criminal proceedings and the post-conviction process.
Colleagues describe him as someone who keeps current on developments in criminal law and procedure. He attends association meetings and legal education programs. He also appears in hearings and manages client matters that require courtroom advocacy and negotiation with prosecutors.
His background—DePaul undergraduate studies followed by a University of Michigan law degree—frames a practice that mixes academic grounding with hands-on courtroom work. While his memberships show a long-running presence in Chicago and Lake County legal communities, his work takes him across Illinois as client needs require.
Today he operates out of Dreifuss Law, representing clients in criminal defense matters across the state. He continues to engage with professional associations and to handle casework in Illinois courts, focusing his practice on criminal defense and related litigation.
