Why You Should Choose the Law Office of David Chesley:
The Chesley Difference

Mr. Chesley is a tireless advocate for his clients. Mr. Chesley and his team are among the best in the business when facing prosecutors, but he is also one of the best when it comes to working with his clients.

Mr. Chesley and his team understand the worry and fear you and your family are dealing with. They know that you never imagined yourself in this situation, and you don’t know what to do. They also understand that the scandal from an unproven allegation (even a minor charge such as shoplifting) may have devastating consequences that go far beyond any formal sanction.

That’s why Mr. Chesley personally supervises every case his firm represents. He gives you the personal dedication and engagement you need, so you never feel like you’re going through this alone. At the same time, everyone on Mr. Chesley’s team acts with great professionalism and the utmost discretion, and they work to resolve every matter as quickly as possible.

Mr. Chesley and his team are available to you, literally 24-hours a day, 7-days a week.

White-Collar Crime
White-collar crimes refer to acts that lead to unlawful financial gain. Prosecuted under either state or federal law, white-collar crimes include tax fraud, securities fraud, embezzlement, money laundering, cybercrime, and identity theft.

It is essential to have a criminal defense lawyer at your side for a white-collar crime as soon as possible. Because reputation is everything for the white-collar defendant, prosecutors often look to end the case with a quietly negotiated plea bargain before they’ve filed charges in the first place.

But compared to other crimes, white-collar cases may require in-depth examination and forensic accounting of financial records, statements, corporate filings, correspondence, and much more. Therefore, the sooner you obtain counsel, the more time your lawyers have to learn the relevant facts, assess your potential liability, and develop a sound defense strategy.

The Law Office of David Chesley’s experienced defense counsel and in-house investigators are ready to help you at every step of your white-collar defense, from discovery to a prosecution’s proffer and plea negotiations to trial.

Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Related Offenses
As a member of the California DUI Lawyers Association and the National College for DUI Defense, Mr. Chesley is a certified expert in DUI defense, and it shows. Ninety-five percent (95%) of his DUI clients receive no jail time.

DUI defense expertise is essential in California. The state aggressively pursues those who are “driving under the influence” (DUI), and Century City is no exception in that pursuit. In addition to its regular DUI enforcement, the Los Angeles Police Department’s West Bureau frequently has DUI checkpoints and roving DUI saturation patrols in the Century City area.

California DUI convictions carry severe penalties, ranging from fines and license suspension to community service, probation, and prison. DUI convictions also may require participation in alcohol programs, installation of ignition lock devices, and restitution.

The Automobile Club of California estimates that, between fines, penalties, increases in insurance premiums, and other costs, a first-offense DUI misdemeanor conviction will cost approximately $15,688 for an adult 21 and over, while a first DUI conviction for a minor (under the age of 21) will be $22,500.

Types of Criminal Cases Mr. Chesley Defends:

  • White-Collar Crimes
  • Driving Under the Influence and other motor vehicle-related offenses
  • Murder, Assault, and Rape
  • Narcotics Possession and Distribution
  • Domestic Violence and Related Restraining Orders
  • Property crimes including burglary (residential and commercial), robbery, car theft, theft from a vehicle, shoplifting, and vandalism
