Biography
Ron Chini is the founder of the Law Office of Ron Chini (Chini Law) in Irvine, California, practicing DUI defense, criminal defense, and Chapter 7 bankruptcy. Licensed by the State Bar of California since 2009 (Bar No. 263308), Ron has represented Southern California clients for more than 16 years and has earned over 100 recent five-star client reviews on Avvo alone. Full practice details and consultation scheduling are on the Chini Law website.
Ron’s DUI and criminal defense work takes him into Superior Court across Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Los Angeles, and San Diego Counties, from first-time DUI arrests and DMV hearings to more serious criminal charges. On the consumer side, he represents individuals and families filing Chapter 7 bankruptcy in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Central District of California. Clients work directly with Ron on every matter, not a paralegal or a call center.
His practice is built on transparent communication and strategic insight: clear explanations of the options, realistic expectations, and a plan tailored to each client’s situation. Free consultations are available seven days a week, DUI and criminal defense clients can arrange payment plans, and bankruptcy cases are handled on a flat-fee basis so costs are known upfront.
Clients consistently describe Ron as accessible, responsive, and committed to achieving the best possible outcome in their case. He advocates for each client with clarity and professionalism and guides them through every stage of the legal process. To learn more or schedule a free consultation, search Chini Law.

Excellent Lawyer
Besides being a really good Lawyer Ron is personable and considerate. He was able to have my DUI reduced to a Wet n Reckless. No need for additional DUI classes, nor an ignition interlock device needed.
