There is no criminal defense attorney I hold in higher regard than Chad Van Brunt. He is the gold standard in the criminal defense community. The guy is an encyclopedia of criminal procedure and one helluva trial lawyer. During my time as a federal prosecutor, I was contemplating charging a woman in a complex white collar case and then I got a call from Chad Van Brunt, notifying me that he was representing the target. I ultimately chose not to go forward with the case, in no small part because of the respect I have for this man. He is a titan in the legal community and should be at the top of your list if you're in need of a great attorney.

Chad Van Brunt is an excellent lawyer. He has quickly developed an expertise in trial and appellate issues. His knowledge of the law is second to none.

Chad Peter Van Brundt is the top of the line when it comes to criminal defense, appeals, federal, and white collar work. He is the cream of the crop. I trust his judgment on all matters of criminal law and use him quite frequently as a resource or knowledge. The guy writes the book on criminal law.

I would hire Chad to defend a member of my family in a white collar case. He's brilliant and effective. I'm happy to learn from him every day.

Chad is a badass lawyer who not only represents his clients, but feels and experiences their pain with them. He is one of the top attorneys in San Antonio and is worth every dime. I highly respect Chad and would hire him if I was in a jab in San Antonio.

Chad has an excellent reputation as one of the smarter attorneys in San Antonio. I recommend him.

One of the smartest attorneys I know. I seek out his opinion regularly and would advise everyone else to as well.

I endorse this lawyer. Chad is easily one of the most intelligent and most passionate criminal defense attorneys I have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

Chad is one of the smartest lawyers in Texas. I know him by working on cases with him and just from seeing Chad in court. He is my go to guy for appellate advice and the go to guy for lawyers across the state of Texas who use the Texas Criminal Practice Guide, which he authors. One of the reasons he is such an excellent appellate lawyer is because he also tries cases to verdict and gets in the trenches in the court house. Chad is easily among the best lawyers that I know and deeply committed to his clients. If I was in trouble, I'd hire him. I have already referred friends to him. I wholeheartedly endorse this lawyer.

Robert Frazer, Appeals Attorney on Feb 23, 2013

I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Van Brunt is possibly the most well-versed, young criminal attorney in the State. His knowledge of developing case law is matched by very few and is evidenced by his publishing credentials as well as his courtroom experience. He's the classic - yet rare - combination of "book knowledge" and zealous courtroom advocacy.

Chad is a fighter who loves what he does and knows what he's doing. He knows the criminal law better than most lawyers who have been practicing for many years. He is a good lawyer and a great friend. I endorse his work.
