Can't be happier with his work

I was already two years in jail when I decided to change my lawyer. I was with a very expensive one, who had a big name, but was only after the money. As a European I didn't have much knowledge of the system here and he took advantage of it. My trust in lawyers was very law when I hired Jeffrey. He ...got me out of jail within months on bail, what is not easy for a foreigner without any ties to the US. Almost on monthly base he helped me improved my living conditions, so I could leave the apartment I was confined to for more hours, until he got me within one year out on a curfew. I had a very big fraud case and thought I would be looking at more time. We went through the PSI together and Jeff navigated the interview completely in my favor. Nether the less we got a bad draft back, Jeffrey really put some effort in, so it recommended "time served". My sentencing memo was a stellar job. After that even the government decided not to go hard on me. The sentencing itself went completely smoothly; Jeff was well prepared and I always felt he had control over everything. He puts the client above himself. I never had the feeling I was just a paycheck. He was also there on personal level and helped me tremendously with everything. Of course, i got time served in the end. Jeff is a great professional and an amazing person to guide you through such a hard time. The only negative I can write in this review is, that I can only give him five stars here, when he deserves so much more.

Direct, Real, and Your Priority

Background: Upon facing a civil manner with the State of New York between August and September earlier this year, I have had consulted with many other “top-rated” and “Best of Avvo” legal firms and lawyers - all of which used a lot of scare tactics, outlining comprehensive administrative plans, defer...ring scheduling of resolving manners to fit their busy schedules, and highly inflated consultation and matter fees. Jeff was straight-to-the-point, realistic, and provided complete resolution within 20 days of calling him. Jeff was very friendly to chat with, always available via text (even on weekends and during his wife’s birthday!). While I often felt anxious regarding the matters at hand, Jeff was able to ease my anxieties and press the matters highly effectively and efficiently well ahead of schedule. While the matter at hand was not very severe, Jeff was able to speak with the Assisting District Attorney and settle a resolution to the matters regarding a state-enforced protection order as quickly as he could. I appreciate having had Jeff by my side during this time in my life, and I look forward to connecting with him again eventually - even over drinks. Thank you Jeff

The Best Decision I Ever Made

I consulted with several attorneys before meeting Jeff, and after our first discussion I immediately knew this was someone I can trust undoubtedly. He didn't make any false promises, yet made it very clear that he will be doing his absolute best to use his knowledge and experience to help me get thro...ugh a very difficult ordeal. Jeff exceeded my expectations in unbelievable fashion, resulting in an outcome I am truly grateful for given the circumstances. He remained patient and diligent, showing compassion throughout my case while displaying his expertise in NYC law from start to finish. He left no stone unturned, worth every penny! If you want an attorney that will give you top tier legal counsel, look no further than Jeff Chabrowe.

Jeff handled my case compassionately and professionally at every stage. He is more than a skilled litigator. His professionalism and compassion made a difficult situation bearable. From our first meeting, Jeff put my mind at ease and I knew I had put my case into the right hands. Most importantly, my... case concluded successfully and I could go on with my life. I would recommend Jeff Alan chabrowe to anyone needing a defense attorney.
