Mr Jackson Gavel
States Attorney
Biographical Info
The first priority of the state’s attorney’s office is to represent the interests of our community, which includes you, your family and the people of Illinois in criminal proceedings and to get violent offenders who threaten our safety off our streets.
I do not take this responsibility lightly. I believe that there is no higher purpose in government than protecting the safety and welfare of the citizens whom I have been entrusted to serve. The men and women of the state’s attorney’s office have dedicated themselves to this duty. Whether it is an attorney in our Criminal Division prosecuting a violent criminal, a counselor in our Diversion program providing rehabilitative services to a non-violent offender, or an attorney in our Civil Division collecting unpaid child support, making sure that the children of Concepte County have a safe and healthy place to live or representing the County of Concepte in legal proceedings and transactions, everyone in our office works diligently on a daily basis to make our community safer and preserve the quality of life we enjoy in Concepte County.
