I hired Sam to represent my elderly aunt in a properly line dispute with a new neighbor. The neighbor was unreasonable and fired multiple attorneys as he continued to rebuke their advice. Sam was consistent in his response and professionalism and continually managed the expectations of my 90 year old aunt who was extremely anxious throughout the process. Sam is extremely easy to work with and I would highly recommend him.
We contacted Sam for advice related to a Real Estate LLC and interpretation of our rights as 50% owner. Sam understood what our goal was and quickly came up with three options and outlined each with pros and cons. Appreciated his ability to see the pitfalls and how it might affect future relations with our Partner in the LLC. No doubt the best experience we have had with an attorney and his support team. Highly skilled and efficient Sam Chuck has won us over and happy to have him on our team.

Professional, humanitarian
Sam was our attorney for the sale of our commercial property that been in the family for 60 yrs. Throughout the transaction he kept us apprised of the communications from the buyer’s council; explaining the purpose, clarifying what it meant, advising us of the response or reply. We feel fortunate to have had the opportunity to have Sam as our lawyer and admire and sincerely appreciate his professional and humanitarian manner.

Excellent Professional Legal Competence
Mr. Sam Chuck has represented our company and myself for the last 15 years on many cases regarding our real estate transactions. He has negotiated many complex CMBS loans and bank loans as well as corporate and land development for us. He always provides superior and unprecedented client service from start to finish. During the course of working with Sam, I always feel as though my matter is being treated as a priority. He promptly responds to my communications, even outside normal business hours. And he goes the extra mile to help us obtain a positive resolution. He has excellent communication and people abilities, and he can handle anything and quite brilliantly too. He's very knowledgeable in many aspects of law especially real estate. He has always offered me unparalleled support during what most people would consider to be a stressful landlord/tenant dispute. I love how Sam goes out of his way to explain the legal stuff so that I can provide the correct information to them. I am extremely impressed with the level of competency he has shown me. I would confidently refer colleagues, friends, and family to Mr. Chuck.

Great success!!
Sam was recommended to us from our commercial real estate agent. We also had a couple other recommendation and interviewed all three before choosing Sam.
Sam and his staff were diligent at review our proposal, ironing out the problems and getting us a closed deal. He did way more work then our agents did and deserved their overinflated commission.
We will definitely use Sam again for any other transactions we have. Thank you Sam!!

Sam is the Best Lawyer
Sam is an excellent lawyer, he is so sincere and brilliant. He can grasp the key issues instantly and come up with solutions, recommendations and actions almost in no time at all. His ultimate concern is the save the cost while achieving the most return for the clients. He is a lawyer with impeccable integrity. He has not lost a case for me since I first asked him to represent me for over twenty years. I can't think of a better lawyer than Sam.

Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I endorse this lawyer. I have known Sam for over 15 years. During the course of that time I have represented a defendant in a case in which Sam represented one of the defendants in a jury trial. I have appeared opposite Sam in litigation and I have worked with Sam on opposing sides in real estate transactions. Sam is dedicated, hard working honest, always well prepared and has honed his skills as an attorney. But, the best feature of Sam is that he is a fine man and a person that you would be proud to call a friend."

Real estate Attorney | Jul 30
Relationship: Worked together on matter
"I endorse this lawyer. I first met Sam when we were on opposite sides of a real estate transaction. The transaction was not easy and Sam found a way to make the deal work for both sides. After that, we thought so highly of Sam that we hired him to work on several of our transactions that required outside counsel. Sam does excellent work in a timely manner and his advice is always spot on. I give Sam my highest recommendation."

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter
"I endorse this lawyer. Mr. Chuck and I were opposing counsel on a case. We are both very competitive, so we butted heads a bit. But I can tell you that I have nothing but respect for him. He is very smart. And very knowledgeable. He's also backed by one of the premier and most respected law firms in the Bay Area.
I have litigated multiple cases against his firm. They are one of the best."
