Damon Matthew Cheronis

I was indicted in 2020 of being a leader with a conspiracy and a money laundering charge with 9 other defendants. Being a first time offender not knowing anything about hiring the correct attorney, I came across a money hungry attorney that was just looking to take as much money as he could from me,... that at my bond hearing he compared my case with dogs playing poker. I was denied bond and was told by the judge I wasn’t getting out until the end of my incarceration. With that being said I had to change attorneys. After my family interviewed a couple attorneys Damon stood out the most. After hiring him his main concern was to get me out on bond, and after a couple of months he successfully got me out on bond and got to work right away. He told me I was looking at 30 years and with his hard work and dedication he fought hard till the end and was able to get me a better outcome than I expected. Due to all the evidence the government had on me and other defendants cooperating against me, he was able to obtain a 10 year sentence which was my mandatory minimum and there was no way around it . Damon Cheronis was straight forward never sugar coating anything as honest as they come and I must say he’s a well respected attorney in the federal courts. WORTH EVERY DOLLAR!

I hired Mr Cheronis for a serious and complicated international tax evasion case and I cannot imagine that any other attorney would have been able to solve my case better than the way he did. He have done the impossible and worked with me very closely and used intelligent legal strategies to settle t...he case. I'm extremely happy for hiring him as a attorney and I couldn't be happier with the final outcome of the case. During the months that i worked with him I've honestly felt really lucky for having him as my attorney and i would recommend him to anybody who is looking to hire one of the best (if not the best IMO) Criminal Defense Attorney in the US.

After hiring the wrong lawyer and interviewing more than 6 criminal defense attorney I was finally able to find THE BEST criminal defense attorney for my father. Mr. Damon Cheronis. My father was fighting very serious federal criminal charges, facing a mandatory minimum sentence of 15yrs for a drug c...onspiracy, as soon as Damon took the case everything changed, he was tenacious, knowledgable and people in the court room knew it. After a year of fighting the case Damon used his great negotiation skills and was able to bring my father down to a sentence of 48months, no other lawyer would have been able to obtain these results, ever since I’ve never trusted anyone else with any of my family members freedom. Just recently my husband was facing a bad state gun charge, having a background and just having completed a federal and state sentence, my husband was facing serious years in jail. Again Damon worked hard for a year and decided this case would be taken to trial, I was confident he was the only one that could help my husband obtain his freedom, on the day of the trial the prosecution knew they couldn’t stand a chance and they decided to drop all charges. My husband and father are now free man and we are able to move past those experiences, but this would have not been the case if we would have choose another attorney, Chicago is filled with a ton of lawyers who say they are the best but that just isn’t enough, you have to be the best and that is what a Damon Cheronis, so therefore if you or a loved one is looking to hire a great Federal or state criminal defense attorney, look no further and know with confidence Damon will fight for you like no other. Do not play with your freedom.

My husband was facing criminal charges which were a result of false conspiracy drug accusations. These were Federal charges which could have resulted in multiple years in prison. My husband was arrested and I was devastated. A family friend connected me to a lawyer , but he was not able to assist a...s this was a federal case. The lawyer connected me to Damon Cheronis who stated he would be able to help me. I remember receiving the call from Damon.I was crying hysterically trying to explain my husband being arrested. Damon was so patient, kind and was able to calm me down by reassuring me that he would help my husband with his criminal case. Damon is a kind hearted,honest, has excellent communication skills and a very intelligent man. He never sugar coated anything and explained all of the options in regards to the case to my husband and I. My husband chose to go to trial because he and I truly believed Damon would win the case. I was able to witness first hand how aggressive and passionate Damon was in defending my husband in court. He persuaded the tribunal to accept his interpretation of the facts and the law. Damon is very well respected by many in his field. I would highly recommend him to handle your case. For those who only speak Spanish, like my husband, do not be discouraged to reach out to Damon Cheronis to handle your case. Because of this man's hard work and integrity, my husband is now a free man. Damon Cheronis won my husband's case against the government and my husband was found not guilty. If you need a professional, experienced, respectable, and knowledgeable lawyer who can help you win the case, Damon Cheronis is the one for you.
