I highly recommend Attorney Jonah Chew for anyone in need of outstanding legal representation. Jonah did an incredible job managing a complex case, reducing what started as 11 felony counts down to a single, immigration-safe count with no jail time and minimal probation. After five years of fighting this case, Jonah was able to settle it amicably, delivering a result far beyond what I could have hoped for. Not only did he reduce the charges, but there’s also a possibility he may be able to reduce the conviction to a misdemeanor once probation is complete. His dedication and persistence throughout the entire process were remarkable. Jonah is highly regarded in court, always punctual, and never misses a beat. He is consistently well-prepared and respected by judges and legal professionals alike. His attention to detail and unwavering commitment to his clients set him apart. I’m incredibly grateful for his hard work, professionalism, and genuine care in ensuring the best possible outcome for me. I am blessed to not just call him my lawyer, but also my friend.

Jonah was great to work with! He was always there when I needed him and took a very professional and personal approach to my situation. He is smart and knows the ins and outs of the legal system. I would highly recommend him!

I never had any interactions with the law in my life and after an unfortunate incident everything was scary and stressful. Jonah helped to reduce the stress and patiently explained things to me and answered my questions, as I was clueless about how the justice system works. He was very responsive throughout the multi-year process and was willing to jump on a phone call to talk things over. Jonah is compassionate yet explains things how they are without sugarcoating. He's been in the Bay Area judicial system for a long while and understands well how it works. Case was terminated and I'm back to the happy life thanks to Jonah.

We hired Chuck after doing due diligence on a total of ten personal injury attorneys. Of the ten attorneys we contacted, Chuck excelled in several ways. Among other things, he was the only attorney willing and able to give us references. We talked to five of Chuck’s previous clients and all of them gave glowing comments about his integrity, demeanor and competency. We fond Chuck to be a straight shooter and results oriented. His knowledge and experience was especially beneficial to our case. For us, he sealed the deal, minimized our stress and maximized the payout. Best free tip came from our sister — if you are involved in a situation where law enforcement has been called, it is an excellent idea to request the police report, body cam footage and police photos as soon as possible. As a victim, you have a right to all of this information and it’s typically easy to make a request online.

Jonah was such a blessing. I was facing multiple felonies, but after strategically playing the long game, he was able to get my case dismissed 5 years later. He was always there to answer any questions, or concerns that I had. I would highly recommend him to anyone.

Chuck Geerhart is an exceptional Lawyer. I highly recommend him, he changed my perception of what I thought a Lawyer was. In the past I had multiple bad experiences, Mr. Geerhart was kind, knowledgeable and patient. He was able to give me a clear understanding of my case and what to expect. If you are searching for representation, look no further.

Chuck is a GREAT Lawyer!! He was there every step of the way. Very happy with the outcome. 👍

After my 88 year old mother was badly injured by a hit and run ride share driver, our family was looking for the right attorney. After we met Chuck, we instantly felt we were in the right hands. He is a great attorney, and an overall great guy, and my mother received a good settlement very quickly due to Chuck’s diligent work.

Back in April, I was hit by a car while crossing the street and ended up breaking my wrist. It was an extremely frustrating and exhausting situation to be in, and even though I knew it was in my best interest to contact a personal injury lawyer, I wasn't looking forward to adding yet another task to my to-do list. I called the SF Bar Lawyer Referral Service and they assigned me to Chuck. We were able to get everything done over the phone and he kept me informed and updated with every step. Great to work with, and he made it a painless experience. Highly recommended if you're looking for this type of service!

Chuck is very kind and accomodating!

Jonah Chew, Esq. was there for me on the worst day of my life. After being arrested and wrongly charged with several criminal offenses, I was desperate to find the best criminal attorney in San Francisco. I read reviews online, which resulted in my finding Jonah and his firm; all the reviews on Attorney Chew were positive. Jonah had me as a client for four years, fighting for and representing me at every step along the way. He took time to explain everything to me and was always available by phone or email for questions. He was always at my hearings on time, and often would meet with me at a local coffee shop an hour before our hearings to check in with me, strategize, explain next steps, and answer any questions. I noticed that, when Jonah enters the courtroom, he is respected by the legal community right away. I believe that his positive relationships with Judges, Court Personnel, and other attorneys greatly assists his clients when he negotiates on their behalf- the legal community knows Jonah will courteously fight to get the best deal for his client. He did for me- thankfully all my charges were dropped in the end due to his considerate persistence with finding a positive resolution for me. Jonah is a hard worker working late into the evening and even on weekends to make sure he is prepared for each hearing and his motions are prepared. He is passionate about his cases, genuinely cares for the well-being of his clients, and is a great listener. I would recommend him to anyone- if you have a criminal matter, you are doing yourself a disservice going to anyone else. He guided me through the most stressful, anxiety-filled, and depressing four years of my life, with an extremely favorable outcome. I have my charges cleared because of him.
