Michael D. Cheronis

I highly recommend Michael because he did an outstanding job representing me in my criminal case. He made me feel at ease about the whole situation, part of which is from him being an excellent communicator. I recommend to anyone that is looking (friends, family) & I will reach out to him for his e...xpertise again if need be!!!

I am a reasonably educated man and a combat veteran. A loved one was charged with multiple felony counts for the possession of a firearm in Chicago. There are no words for the sense of helplessness dealing with this situation. During this time of extreme distress, I contacted Mr. Cheronis who immedia...tely returned my call and provided clear directions on how to arrange bail. He outlined the legal process and explained the court procedures that were to come. Michael’s record as a former prosecutor and seasoned defense attorney was outstanding, yet he was subjective in establishing a clear understanding of my case and my options to provide me the information I needed to make the decision to hire him as counsel. Once that decision was made, Michael provided a reasonable fee schedule and again detailed the process. Michael Cheronis provided consistent and reliable counsel and never deviated from pursuing a positive outcome from a horrible situation. The end result was that all the charges were dropped. There is no expressing the relief and gratitude we have for Michael. If you have a legal issue, you don’t need just any lawyer in your corner. You need Michael Cheronis.

I hired Michael Cheronis to represent me for a DUI charge and I was extremely pleased with his services. He is extremely professional, kind, and thorough. He examined all the evidence thoroughly to give me his opinion for the best course of action. We settled the case in three hearings and was able t...o be relieved of 100 hours of community service. He was very helpful, upfront, and honest throughout the process and thus, I would highly recommend him. - A

Mike Cheronis effectively saved my life. I am a young, PhD-bound person who had never been in trouble with the law, and when I was falsely accused of a felony-level crime which could have meant jail time and basically ruining my life as I knew it, I could not afford to get anything but the best lega...l defense my family could afford. Mike was that defense. He is an experienced criminal attorney, and is also a kind, caring person; I always felt like he believed in me and my innocence. My court proceedings lasted for 1.5 years, and Mike was always there for me from day one. He is professional, responsive, and he actively engages with you so that you know exactly what's going on and exactly what you need to do to get that Not Guilty verdict at trial. That's what I got because of Mike's talent and effort. Because of Mike, my life and my future have been restored. If you are looking for a criminal defense attorney for yourself or one of your loved ones, and you want someone who you can trust and who will be satisfied with nothing but the best possible outcome for you and your family, then please seriously consider Mike Cheronis.
