The best lawyer I have ever known, many did not want to help me in my criminal case and he fought in court for me and managed to dismiss the case. I recommend Chernoff law. If you have a criminal case, do not hesitate to contact him. alludara

I LOVE this man. Seriously! He saved my life. I was falsely accused of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon by my crazy ex during a divorce and custody battle. Ed got my case dismissed in 3 months! No matter how much I freaked out or panicked, Ed remained calm and professional. I can t thank this man enough for what he did for me. I m still in shock. He is an Angel in human form. (He is tough as nails though) Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! <3 Also his secretary Gina is amazing. She was more of a therapist for me these last few months. I appreciate all her reassurance and support.

Ed Chernoff helped me resolve my legal troubles when i was falsely accused of assault with bodily injury. From the beginning he established the situation i was in and told me he would get it dismissed and after a couple of court resets he did just that. The best criminal lawyer in the Houston area with reasonable prices and tons of experience.

Let.the fact be known Im not a client of Mr. chernoff, but I see his is professional, caring attentive, great, and highly recommend and let the record reflect Im not even a Texan , Im from New Mexico, irregardless, I would give Mr.cherrnoff 5 stars, and if anyone has a problem with it to bad, I think what Ive read seen, he is professional and a great lawyer with a brilliant legal mind. To bad he is is not a lawyer in N.M. But again I am grateful to know what a kick #_# attorney he is , and God bless him and his clients and his practice Ryan Non client N.M. resident and observer .

The people who are able to give you an accurate honest review are in prison - he represented my cousin Andres - but because of Ed s horrible lack of representation he went to prison for 25 years - Chernoff didn t care my cousin paid him in full and he didn t do anything to help him and fight his case- once you paid him either in full or payments Chernoff doesn t have any motivation to do anything for you and fight for you - God is my witness I m not exaggerating about this review

Ed Chernoff did what my husband and I thought would be impossible. Our son got into some serious trouble which left little hope of not ruining/changing his life for good. However when it was all said and done, he has a second chance to have a normal life with no conviction at all. I cannot thank Ed and Gina enough for helping him and giving him his life back. He is an amazing attorney and his legal assistant Gina is awesome and very knowledgeable on how the legal system works. Thank you so much! You have positively affected all of our lives with this outcome.

I needed an expuntion for a criminal offense i had over 4 years ago. My previous lawyer was original suppose to accomplish this task for me and did not. I call Chernoff Law Firm and within a week had filed for my expuntion and kept me updated while I was waiting to get it. Also they gave me a detailed explanation as to how the expungement works and what all it entails. Chernoff law assistant Gina Tyroch was very sympathetic and well informed as called and kept me updated throughout the process. These guys are great and there work speaks for itself.

Honestly, if you have a big case that your livelyhood depends on DO NOT HIRE this attorney. Very unprofessional and unorganized. His staff was late they would not communicate with each Other. If I had a question it was a hassle to answer I mean he had no motivation to beat the case it was a complete waste I feel like he did the minimum he could. On the same token I did a couple things that did not help me but at the same time I felt like as an attorney its his duty to resolve those issues . At the end of the day he believes he did good in reality he did not ..my advice to someone seeking excellent console is to do extensive research go visit them and talk to others that are in the same situations dont just read reviews as i did.

We have hired Ed Chernoff to defend my son in 4 different cases in the last 3 years. We were referred to Ed by my in-laws as they too had a wonderful outcome with their youngest son years prior. I respect people who are straight forward and tell it like it is. Ed fits this to a tee. He has never misled or given us any false hope. All hopes and requests on our end have been more than fulfilled by Ed. Every time he has represented my son, he has walked away 10 times better than what we all expected him to. In addition, I very much appreciate the fact that Ed has taken the time to talk with my son directly. He has made us feel that he has genuine interest and concern for our sons future. Couldnt have ever asked for a better person to represent my son who is my world. I would never hesitate to refer Ed to ANYONE!!

What can I say. Mr. Chernoff is a bulldog in that courtroom, respected by everybody. After a year of back and fourth to the court house, today was a victory. I didnt have a spotless record but Mr. Chernoff was able to get what we set out for in the beginning. My advice is if you are looking for a good attorney this is your guy. He showed that he cared about his clients and take pride in his achievements in that courtroom & he is straight forward too and will not B/S you. If you hire him, just be patient and let him do his Magic.

When I was accused of domestic assault, I did my homework and through online reviews and his website I met with Mr. Chernoff about my case. He was very professional and clearly explained the process, cost and expected time frame for my case. Mr. Chernoff was able to get my initial court hearing moved up so that I could get back home and get some normalcy back at home and at work. As being away from my family was hard for all of us during the holidays and for unexpected home emergencies. Through his service, I was able to get my case dismissed fairly quickly without any delays. I highly recommend his services if you are in need of a criminal defense lawyer.

I had been accused of domestic assault in 2013. With the help of my parents and the internet I retained Ed Chernoff. He guided me through the legal system which included the bond process followed by two years of multiple resets. I went to trial in June of 2015. After 2 days of testimony and excellent representation by Ed, I was found not guilty. I highly recommend Ed Chernoff as a knowledgeable and very skilled criminal defense attorney.

Mr. Chernoff was everything I wanted in a Lawyer. He is honest and professional and will not sugarcoat the process. And Trust me, its a process. Everything described by Mr. Chernoff in our first consultation came true. I was facing a resisting arrest charge that I could not have on my record and he was able to get the case dropped!!! He never once told me this was going to be an easy, but promised, together we would beat the case. He called me on Monday and gave me the great news. If you need a lawyer, better call Ed!

Last summer, I was charged with possession of marijuana 5-50 pounds. Its a third degree State felony and can get you 2-10 years in a State prison and/or a fine of $10000. While in custody, the police would try to intimidate me. They said if I tried to fight the case in court they would slap more charges on me. The police assured me my best bet was to plead guilty or cooperate with the detectives, because the evidence against me was far too great for any other option. I received several consultations from well known lawyers around Houston. They said best case scenario, I could get probation and maybe get my felony dropped down to a misdemeanor. Then a friend recommended me to Ed Chernoff. I spoke with Ed and told him the facts about my case. Right off the bat he seemed optimistic about getting the whole case dismissed. At first I was taken back a little because getting my charges dropped was never even an option to me! After reading his impressive reviews online and hearing his great success rate I decided to hire him. He immediately went to work for my defense. He took care of everything in a very professional way. Anytime I needed to contact him or ask for help, he always there. He broke down the process of things in ways I could easily understand. After working non stop in my favor we finally had everything we needed to file for a Motion to Suppress (throwing out the evidence). And sure enough our motion was granted and my case was DISMISSED! I couldnt believe it. I went from being completely hopeless to everything dropped. No jail time and no felony on my record. Its like the whole thing never even happened. If you are looking for lawyer to just go through the motions with you and receive results that are good enough.. then by all means go with them. But if you want an attorney the will fight for you and get you the ABSOLUTE BEST verdict, Ed Chernoff is second to none.

Ed Chernoff is without a doubt one of the best criminal defense lawyers in Houston. He takes every case seriously, even the smaller cases like mine. And his rates are incredibly low for a lawyer of his caliber. After over 20 years of experience in Houston courts, Ed knows everybody in the courtroom and is well liked by all. I would recommend his expertise to anyone who finds themselves in a legal situation.

DISMISSED! Lawyer Ed Chernoff is truly an amazing lawyer and person. He was able to get my Felony charge DISMISSED by the Grand Jury in only 2 weeks of working on my case. Even though Mr. Chernoff had many other pending cases, he treated my case and me as if I was important and my case was the only one he had. He is truly amazing, committed, selfless and a PRO at his job. Lawyer Ed Chernoff could have let my case go on for months and collected his due fees, but he did not! He professional and quickly ending my case and ended my days of worry and sleepless nights. Thank you Mr. Chernoff for being the very best you can be and helping so many others and me. You are a blessing. Regina

My daughter was charged with more than one case of drug possession. I hired Mr. Chernoff. I had no idea on what to expect from the court process. He was very patient and informative, walking us through the options and handling everything in a stress free manner. Ultimately he was able to keep my daughters record completely clear! His representation was professional and always I felt very confident that he would do his best to help her. As a mother, I certainly know I made the right choice in attorneys and I would recommend him to anybody.

Ed Chernoff recently helped me get several charges i received during a traffic stop dismissed. He was prompt with replies, listened to all my concerns, and took me and my situation seriously. The advice and direction he provided gave me the piece of mind to confidently deal with the intimidating judicial system. And lets not forget All my charges were dismissed. I have referred a close friend to Ed to deal with property issues and they said the same thing, this guy knows what hes doing, and made me feel really confident, and took care of everything just like he said he would. If your in trouble in Texas you should call Ed Chernoff.

I am deeply grateful for the talent and representation of attorney Ed Chernoff and his law office. I had errant offspring and protecting the future of said offspring, while providing a second chance to learn better, was of utmost concern. From my first phone call at night asking for help which was handled with great patience and warmth, I was provided specific steps for action along with information about what to expect next. When court dates began, any expectations for representation that I might have had were far exceeded. I expected a professional and competent attorney - but beyond that, Ed carried himself with dignity, was approachable and most importantly, he was genuine. In spite of a busy practice, he was generously responsive to questions, elaborating on answers so that issues were clearly understood. Options were presented with carefully considered pros and cons so that a decision could be made in clarity and not fear, which is where I started out. He was firm but respectful with offspring which was appreciated. Finally, thank you to the experience and representation of Ed Chernoff, there was a favorable outcome. I consider that favorable outcome a gift; it could have gone another way. I am deeply grateful to Ed Chernoff for bringing my family that gift.

Ed Chernoff was absolutely the most communicative lawyer I have ever encountered; he was always able to be reached one way or another. His professionalism, humanity and understanding were beyond what I could ever hope for. He was able to help me and give advice on day one and was able to free me from the situations and cases I was facing.... Couldnt ask for a better law firm or lawyer, simply the Best!!!!! Impressive skills and a wonderful down to earth person to speak to as well. He was tough enough to get things done. I would recommend Ed to anyone and he will also be the first person I contact for any further needs!!!!!! I was so lucky to have found this firm.

My experience with Chernoff Law was nothing less than professional. From day one, after hearing what happened, Ed told me he would help me get through my case, and there was a good chance it would get dismissed. He said it would be a process, going through all of the court orders, license suspensions, etc but in the end, everything would be resolved. It was a nervous 8 months waiting for the court to supply needed information, but Ed came through on his word, and my case WAS dismissed, and license was never suspended. I would highly recommend Chernoff Law to anyone that needs the assistance of an attorney. The professionalism and communication was always present when I had a question or needed an update on my case; and everyone at the firm was easy to work with. Thank you, for all of your help and assistance!
