Samuel Alexander Chuck's Lawyer Endorsements

Endorse Samuel
David Rees Sylva headshot
David Sylva

Litigation lawyer | May 06

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 lawyer | 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."

Litigation lawyer | Sep 18

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."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
