Chance Xcaliber Oberstein

Due to Covid, I was in court and Chance attended remotely via Microsoft Teams and he effectively and successfully litigated for my felony reduction to misdemeanor under CA PC17b. Chance understood the case culture in my county and he understood me and expertly prepped himself and me to go before the... judge, DA and Probation for the motion to reduce.

Mr. Oberstein was able to successfully correct significant errors in a California criminal record from the 1970's and then effectively further enlist the assistance of the California Department of Justice in his equally successful efforts to correct the related but even more serious errors in the FBI... criminal record that had persisted for decades. The passage of time and the circumstances that resulted in these errors made the task complicated and arduous. He proved to be an extraordinarily intelligent, skillful and empathetic advocate with comprehensive knowledge of the applicable laws and systems. He does not give up in the face of obstacles and balances his unshakeable persistence with effective diplomacy. Always generous with his time and clearly passionate about his work, Mr. Oberstein is the lawyer one always hopes for when confronting challenging circumstances.

It was a pleasure hiring Chance. He was able to expunge my case as well as received the very sought after COR. Chance is an expert in helping people with sex-related crimes. He knows the laws and helps guide you through the process. I was surprised when I met him in his office. He went over every cri...minal charge, looked them up and told me what he could possibly do. After hiring Chance for both my expungement and certificate of rehabilitation, I would completely and unequivocally recommend Chance, I just wish I knew about him when my case was originally filed. If I ever need an attorney in the future, Chance will be my first call.

I met Chance Oberstein at an ACSOL meeting many years ago and I consider myself fortunate to have done so. His consummate understanding and knowledge of criminal case law and sex related crimes along with his exceptional expertise in strategizing post-conviction relief has finally concluded in a su...ccessful Expungement of a Misdemeanor charge and a most coveted Certificate of Rehabilitation. As a lawyer, he has always been available for any questions I have had regarding my case and has always been supportive at an emotional level when I could not see a glimmer of light and hope at the end of the tunnel. I always had the sense that he was truly passionate about helping me not only as a client, but as a person as well. Throughout the many meetings I had with him I had a clear distinction that I was dealing with person of excellent conscience, honor and integrity. I highly recommend Mr. Oberstein because of his tenacity to achieve favorable legal outcomes in an extremely hostile and disheartening criminal law system. He is an effective and well-versed attorney who will always look out for your intricate best interests. He would be an excellent choice.
