After working in the Los Angeles County District Attorneys' office, David Chesley saw the potential to protect California criminal defendants from unfounded allegations. He observed many instances of unlawfully obtained testimony, illegally-seized "evidence," and situations where he felt his fellow Angelenos were being unjustly prosecuted (without probable cause). In addition, David observed that many of these criminal cases were complicated by the potential for disastrous immigration consequences for those in USCIS processing or without documentation.
Following this experience, David began defending DUI, felony, and misdemeanor cases in Courts throughout Los Angeles County as well as assisting clients with immigration matters. Since that time, David Chesley has successfully defended many clients in major violent felony strike cases, against serious allegations including rape, child molestation, and gang-murder trials where his clients potentially faced multiple life sentences. He has also helped many clients avoid deportation, obtain green cards or permanent residency status, and achieve citizenship.
