Best Attorney

I was being charged with a serious felony. Dan and his team worked so hard that at the end, my case got dismissed. I couldn’t ask for a better lawyer. Thank you so much for everything.

Best Defense Attorney

I want to start off by saying I was in the worst possible situation I could ever imagine in my life. I was facing a situation where my husband may never have a life with me & our family ever again.I was searching and calling so many defense attorneys and Dan Chambers was the one who came to our rescu...e he responded right away and told me he would take my husbands case. Within days Dan and his team got to work. He ensured me and my family was were in good hands and he said he could get the job done and he did. Fighting 3 long years of back and fourth court battles he was by our outside every step of the way. Not to mention he also took on another case that came up along the way. Thanks to Dan and all his team for all their hard work my husband will be home soon and back to his regular life again. Please if your love one is facing a possibility of never coming home again Dan is going to get you the best outcome. Please call him you will be satisfied.

Your attorney to hire

When selecting a defense attorney, sometimes it’s hard to do all you can go on is years of experience and customer reviews I’m here to tell you that selected Mr. Chambers was the best decision that I could’ve made I was facing 5 years in prison, but Mr. Chambers with his experience, knowledge and det...ermination, was able to get me house detention in two years of probation. If you need an attorney that will fight for you. Mr. Chambers is the one you should choose.

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.
