I talked to several criminal attorneys as I was facing a felony criminal charge. David Chesley stood head and shoulders above the rest as he quickly grasped my situation during the initial interview -- at no cost, of course. He went right to the law book and gave me his read on the statutes as they applied to my case. He quickly offered real hope and saw through the holes in the formal charges against me.
I was advised of their team approach to my case in that they would "put their heads together" to make sure I received the best counsel. The fees for their services were clearly explained and were in line or better than what I had been quoted by others. I thought it over for a few days and made my decision to hire them - although, I knew that day they were the right firm. Felony charge has been reduced to misdemeanor. I received one year probation with psychiatric evaluation. No jail time. And I was facing 1 to 6 years in prison. I am extremely grateful for all that they provided me - including respect for me as a person, even with shameful criminal charges against me. I have had many other attorneys over the years. None can compare to Law Offices of David Chesley!

Mr Chesley did a great job with communicating what was going on with my case. I was extremely worried and he didn't lose his patience with me for asking what the status was but instead would find out and let me know anything he could find out. He's extremely professional and I ended with the outcome I wanted. He made sure my case was dismissed and even came prepared with paperwork to have it expunged. I would recommend him to anyone looking for excellent representation and good follow up. Great job Mr Chesley!

I recently used David for one of my cases and I must say he is an amazing and very professional lawyer that gets the job done. He stays on top of your case and always keeps in contact with you. I would recommend David to any of my friends or family if they needed a great lawyer.

My son is a good kid who has suffered from some mental health issues. Sometimes he makes poor decisions. He was arrested for trespassing and the police found him with Xanax. When we reached out to David we were very concerned. I know our son has anxiety and we wanted to get him out of jail and get him help.
When my son was finally released from the courthouse it was obvious that he was not in a good emotional state. My husband and I took him from court and when we began walking out he hit me. I know my son and he is not this type of person, but being locked up exacerbated his anxiety. I had no interest in doing anything about him lashing out at me and I understand why he did, but the police saw it and arrested my son. They put him right back into jail. All of this was a nightmare for our family.

After his second arraignment, my wife and son sat with David in his office to come up with a plan. I spoke with David so he could guide me as well. Not only did David respectfully handle our calls (there were many!), but we went back to court earlier this week and the cases are over. One case was dismissed and the other case was closed with an ACD. This means in six months my son will be free of all the remaining charges.

I am truly happy with the outcome even if I didn’t want to be dealing with this in the first place. My son will get the help he needs and can go about his life without horrendous consequences of these arrests.

Mr Chesley achieved the results I desired. Great communication, and a true professional in every sense of the word. He knows the law and the courts. Was patient and understanding answering all my questions in a timely manner. Was amazing to watch in court. I would highly recommend him to anyone. Thank you again for the outcome I desired!!

A while ago I called you guys and you explained about the criminal court process and how it works. I was so far along with my case I didn't hire you but your advice was very helpful. Thank you for your help and information.

Let me start by saying Mr. Chesley and his excellent legal assistants Gabriella and Jose always presented information in a professional and confident manner. Mr. Chesley promptly returned phone calls and emails with kindness in a manner that I could understand and comprehend. The staff helped to keep me up to date on all the proceedings and informed me to what was the next step in my case. I wish to thank Mr. Chesley and staff for all their guidance and patience with me during this difficult time. Their compassion coupled with their legal knowledge gave me extreme confident in this firm which was rewarded with good case results.

We can’t thank David enough for helping our family. He made calls on our behalf before we even had our first meeting! Although we were going through a difficult time,David kept us calm and focused by explaining everything that was going on and what we should expect. He was able to use his friendly and calm demeanor to achieve results we hadn’t dared hope for. Of course, every case is unique but we can confidently say that if you have a need for a criminal defense attorney you can’t do better than to engage David Chesley Law Offices.

David, Yareem, Michael and their entire team pushed strong and worked tirelessly to help me through a tough time in my life. Not only did they respect my situation, but they believed in me. From the beginning, David was open and honest with every outcome and possibility that could have occurred. He communicated with my family and myself as much as we needed him to and always gave us trustworthy answers.
