Former Client

Jeff Chabrowe did a great job with my case. When it came to sentencing he did his best to make sure I got the most lenient outcome. He prepared me for what to expect and my family and I are grateful for his efforts.

An attorney to choose when you are facing a serious situation.

As they say, when it rains, it pours. This I found true when in the span of one just one morning, my life felt like it was turned upside down. Two different complicated issues came crashing down on me at the same time These situations were very serious. I could not believe it this was happening. It w...as like a "Bad dream gone bad". I needed to prove my innocence! I sought out many attorney's, but when I spoke Mr. Chabrowe, I immediately felt like he was the one. He was very positive and had the attitude like, "Okaaaaaay, we will figure this out". His fees were very, very fair and he is EXTREMELY responsive when you reach out to him. I was further impressed when he took the time during his vacation to respond to my call and work on my issues even while being away. If you are need of an attorney, who is serious, focused and who doesn't sugar coat the situation; who doesn't act like he knows everything, but who is willing to take the time to sort and figure out what the best approach would be, Mr. Chabrowe, I tell you, is the one for you; he is with you from the beginning to the very end. With all the above in mind, do not expect Mr. Chabrowe to pacify you, or to tell you sweet nothings, or to sit on a swing with you and count your tears. Its nice to have a sensitive lawyer who can cry with you, but what you need, when facing a serious situation, is Mr. Chabrowe, a realist and strategist, who is focused on gathering the facts, devising a plan, and finding the best possible disposition for you; all while keeping your best interests in mind. Be honest and straight with him so he can assess your situation efficiently and formulate a strategic approach. Even if you don't hear from him, know that you are important to him, and he is working on your case behind the scenes. So, when you find yourself in a jam, facing a serious situation whether it be of your own doing or from life's basket of unfortunate treats...call Mr. Jeff Chabrowe.

Words can't express my gratitude

After speaking with at least a dozen lawyers, some asking for at least $400 for a consultation and a minimum of 25k to get started, I spoke with Jeff who not only called me back asap after my initial contact, but provided an in depth consultation free of charge and laid out exactly what our options w...ere. Our issue was that my husband's concurrent sentences were entered into the BOP system as consecutive vs. concurrent. As a result, he was still being held many months after his sentenced actually ended. From November 2019 through February 2020, I had contacted everyone from the judge's office to probation to Grand Prairie and no one would help. I was given the run around by every single individual that I contacted. I was fortunate enough to find Jeff and connected with him the last week of February and within three weeks, my husband was released and at home. What makes Jeff so amazing is not just that he was able to obtain my husband's release, but he would phone and text me, sometimes even late into the evening, just to keep me in the loop on everything. Had I not come across Jeff, I am quite certain that my husband would still be locked up. In addition, the cost was more than reasonable and he even offered a variety of payment options. I am so grateful to have my husband home and especially thankful to have had Jeff as his attorney.

One of the best criminal defense attorneys in NYC!

Jeff Chabrowe is an incredible attorney! He is diligent, conscientious and results-oriented. With two decades of criminal law experience, Jeff has a successful track record of delivering notable results obtained in a wide variety of cases. I also believe Jeff’s experience as a former prosecutor helps... him create highly effective defense strategies. Jeff is confident, decisive and a highly astute negotiator. Jeff also listened attentively and was always responsive and available to discuss developments in my case. Trust me, Jeff is the guy you want In your corner fighting for you. I would highly recommend Jeff for any criminal case.

Fantastic Job!

I don't normally write reviews but felt the need to do it here. After i found myself in a bit of trouble w an ex partner and the police i knew I needed to find someone great to represent me, that person was Jeff Chabrowe. After meeting with Jeff at his office I knew he was the right person for the j...ob. He has a real understanding of how the process works, having been on both sides of the courtroom. He walked me through the entire process start to finish. I was not intimidated when it was my turn to speak to the police and tell my side of the story. Having an experienced knowledgeable attorney there like Jeff made all the difference in the outcome of my case. I got the results i wanted and have been able to move forward in a positive way with my life thanks to Jeff Chabrowe.
