Chance Xcaliber Oberstein

I have been working with Chance Oberstein for the past 1 1/2 years to resolve my unique and complicated case. In 1981 I committed a misdemeanor sex offense that required me to register as a sex offender. After spending years registering as a sex offender, I was told that is was not possible of get a... Certificate of Rehabilitation. Chance not only made it possible, but the certificate was granted. Although My Live Scan indicated that the offense was a misdemeanor, the penal code section indicated otherwise. This was because the penal code numbers were changed in the interim. This confusion caused the District Attorney to argue to disallow the application for Certificate of Rehabilitation. Because it was such an old case all my records in the court had been destroyed and there was no way to prove my case. Chance was able to prove to the judge that the offense was a misdemeanor and convince him to rule in my favor. The Certificate of Rehabilitation was granted and I will no longer have to register as a sex offender. Throughout this long ordeal Chance proved to be a reliable and competent advocate. He is skillful, empathetic, but objective. He was responsive to my many, many questions and always returned phone calls and e-mails. He traveled numerous times over three counties to help me in court. His manner was calm, assertive, but not aggressive. He was completely thorough and competent and always conducted himself at the highest level of professionalism. He has my complete trust. Chance Oberstein is a solid professional who practices nothing but the best law who exemplifies that even is the case is difficult and complicated, with the help of an excellent attorney a person can obtain a Certificate of Rehabilitation and Relief from Registration as a sex offender.

When I first consulted with Chance, I was looking to mitigate my own sex offender registration requirement in California. Not only did he give me advice with regard to California, he had found out that my case could be expunged in my original stae of conviction! With his advice, I was able to follow ...through and get my sex offense expunged, and no more registration in California! Chance is the most uniquely qualified professional in regard to expungements, and his modest consultation fee ($100 in my case) has turned out to be my greatest investment to my own post-conviction future that I could have ever made! He definitely went well beyond the scope of my own request, and he will do the same for you. Do NOT mistake his consulation fee to that of an attorney that offers "free consultation." An attorney who offers such is trying to get your business. This is not what Chance does. Chance is giving real, valid advice on how to proceed with your own circumstances. Advice, I might add, based upon experience and knowledge of law that no other California attorney can achieve and ANY consultation rate. It must be noted that Chance has gone through the process himself, which makes him both cognitive of as well as empathic with his clients. In short, there is no better value, and in fact no better pragmatic legal advice, that you can get than from a consultation with Chance Oberstein.

Chance is the most uniquely qualified lawyer to research and advice on sex offender issues in the state, particularly if you are looking to reduce sex offender registration or expungement issues. I paid $100 for a consultation, and his research indicated that I could get an expungement for my offense..., which I never would have thought possible. A year later, my expungement was granted, and my registration requirement was removed as well! This was absolutely the most productive $100 I have ever spent to improve the quality of my life. Most people think that consultation fees are free, which they may be in many cases. But those free "consultations" are not consultations as much as assessments to attempt to get your business for expensive legal services. Chance charges a reasonable fee, but you will get far more pertinent consultation results that you can use effectively. The advice that Chance gives is the end result of vast amounts of experience in a field that most lawyers are only starting to engage in. I am very happy for the work that Chances has performed, and now he is on my short list for other legal matters I will have. I highly recommend his service, starting with his reasonably-priced consultation.

Being a registered sex offender on life-time federal probation, I needed to find a good lawyer who understood my situation. I was arrested by the local police about 6 months ago when I first called on Chance. After first meeting him I knew he was the best lawyer I would every find, so the search en...ded. He was able to notice immediately that I was the victim of a false arrest. His anger toward the injustice gave me much needed confidence. One month later my case was rejected by the district attorney without a hearing. The second time I called on Chance was for a probation violation in federal court. He was there to represent me on a few hours notice. Probation recommended 90 days, but Chance was able to get me released with only 9 days served!!! Chance is now guiding me through the steps I need to remove myself from live-time probation. Thank you for caring Chance.

God knows exactly who to place in your life. God knew I needed, Chance Oberstein. My son was charged with a felony sex crime for having consensual sex with his girlfriend. My son at the time was 19-years old and his girlfriend was 15-years old, soon to be 16-years old in a few months. Although th...ere wern't any complaints from the girls parents, actually, they were very supportive of my son and concerned about the situation, the legal system still wanted to charge my son with a felony sex crime and wanted him to registered as a sex offender. Mr. Oberstein researched a case simular to my son's and found out that registration was not necessary. When this informaiton was presented to the prosecuting attorney, not only did the charges get dropped to a misdemeanor, my son did not have to register as a sex offender. Mr. Oberstein's expertise in this area is why my son was placed on probation for 4 years. Mr. Oberstein went above and beyond to make sure my son would not have to register as a sex offender. I HIGHLY recommend Mr. Oberstein for you legal needs. Not only is he a knowledgable attorney. He is an attorney with a heart, compassionate, and will to go the distance for you. He is the man you want on your side.
