James Rene Chatto

Mr. Chatto, in an unfavorable situation, more than exceeded expectations in a DWI case. I can not recommend him enough, he will put in the time and effort to get the best possible outcome. I would recommend him to anybody in a similar situation, and it is difficult to put into words how grateful I am....

I was referred to James Chatto by a family friend/lawyer who was too close to my family to comfortably represent me. Considering the source of recommendation I had no reservation seeking James out. He did not let me down whatsoever. James let me know clearly what I was facing, what my options ...were, and he stood by me. He was knowledgeable and wise. He demanded the truth be apparent on all sides and defended based on truth. He is a man of integrity, he is thoroughly versed in his profession, he demonstrates compassion regardless of the situation, you can witness his passion for what he does, and you can trust that he will do the work he is entrusted to do.

I have hired James on a few occasions, so I can accurately attest that he is very professional, caring and all around a great attorney to have at your defense. He does a great job of explaining the situation to you as a client, the possible outcomes and also how things may best be handled. My last ex...perience working with James he helped me get two felony charges dismissed before going to trial. We explored other options in my case before going to trial and ultimately waited till I had an offer of paying a level of restitution that I felt acceptable with. James has came to my rescue also in the past and was very helpful in my defense in DUI and also another felony charge, in which case he also got the felony dismissed. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a great defense attorney in the metro or southern mn area as I've worked with him on a case in the cities and also outside of the metro area. All around he is a great guy, who is easy to talk with and does a great job coming to your defense in your legal issues, I will highly recommend him to anyone I know that needs a great attorney

I highly recommend Jim. I must of received 50+ letters in the mail from attorneys. I chose the 5 I liked the best and began contacting them. Something stuck our about Jim, I could see fire in his eyes - he was there to fight and protect my rights. I immediately chose him after our consultation. Ji...m has extensive knowledge of the courtroom, he knows of many different angles to approach a problem. He works extremely well with the prosecutor to make a fair deal. He always has an answer for my question and prepares you/keeps you informed whats going on with your case in the courtroom.
