No Joke: This man is a phenomenal attorney.

I was charged with 2nd degree Felonious Assault, Armed Robbery, and a slew over other charges on a single incident. I'm one of the most incredulous persons you'd ever meet when it comes to the judicial system, and sincerely singing anyone's praise on either side of the isle has definitely become a fi...rst. Jeff, being exceptionally sharp and attentive saw through all the murk in my case and was able to get all of my charges dismissed. Not only that, he did it at a quarter of the cost the other big law firms would. But make no mistake about it, this man in his own right, was worth far more than he charged. Jeff was also able to get a misdemeanor assault charge I had from a previous occasion thrown out. Jeff was brilliant, honest, and extremely compassionate during my dystopian reality. Despite my skepticism, Jeff assured me along the way what to expect and delivered it with consistent accuracy. Again, sounds like I'm sucking up, but Jeff consoled many important people in my life, along with myself, that everything was going to be fine. What happened? Not a blemish on my record. In my experience before Jeff Chabrowe, defense attorneys acted as if they were merely smokescreens for the prosecution: always forcing clients to plea. Never with Jeff. He was once a DA, and he's extremely astute and will keep you informed throughout the processes of an indictment. I was a baby lamb inside of wolves' labyrinth and Jeff held my hand throughout the eight months it took to get the charges dropped. If facing any serious charges, or, hell, small ones too, it would be foolish for anyone not to have Jeff be your number one consideration for defending you. This man is a force to be reckoned with when contending with the juggernaut that is the judicial system, now. Be upfront and honest with Jeff about your circumstances and expectations, and I'm extremely confident this man will shoot you straight and give you the best plausible outcome. I give him my highest recommendation, and look forward to never being in another situation to have to hire him again. But if I did, I wouldn't use anyone else. Trust me.

Wonderful experience

Working with Jeff was a wonderful experience from start to finish. Exceeded my expectations and not only helped me get done what was needed, but helped me feel supported every step of the way.

A Lawyer with a heart!

Mr. Chabrowe did more for my son in 4 weeks than 5 other lawyers did in 3 years. He cuts through all the bs and gets down to what matters. He was always available to us if we needed him and always kept us informed of everything that was going on through the entire process. He cares about his clients ...and makes sure that you know that. We would get numerous calls and texts asking how we were doing and even afterwards he would check in with us to see that things were going in the direction they were supposed to. If you want a Lawyer that truly cares about you and your family and not just a lawyer that looks at you like a source of money, call Jeff Chabrowe.

Excellent Criminal Defense Attorney

Jeff represented my husband in a criminal matter that occurred while we visiting NYC. Living on the other side of the country made our already confusing and upsetting situation much worse. Finding Jeff was invaluable. He has significant experience in criminal matters and spent seven years as an AD...A himself, so he knows the system better than most other attorneys. Jeff worked fast to get us the result we wanted. On top of that, he was easy to reach, responded quickly to phone calls and emails, and made himself available on nights and weekends to accommodate our busy schedule. Furthermore, Jeff is just an all-around nice guy who was easy to talk to and understood our concerns. I highly recommend Jeff to anyone needing an attorney and (if needed) I would hire him again in a heartbeat.
