Jonah is the man of wonders. People do have bad times, and I found my loved one was in a hot soup before we could figure out what was going. Jonah is an absolute magic man! I thought the charge would have been serious (if it was charged), and would result in some jail time, with many other different punishments, I contacted Jonah just after a week of the episode, and he tremendously helped. Not being from this country, not knowing the laws, rules and english not being my first language I felt helpless and manipulated by the system until I had Jonah as my defence lawyer. Jonah guided me very well, and was super communicative. He made sure he replied to me when I sent him an email, if he was appearing in court or was busy; he gave me time when he would be available to return my messages or calls. He truely has an immensely amazing rapport with the DAs and people at the court (trust me blindly!); because our case which we thought we couldnt get off atleast for a year; was not even filed in the court. Jonah is 2 steps ahead of the procedures. Just trust him and you will be in good hands. My case was complex to the level that I think my loved one could have gotten deported; but Jonah helped us by not getting the case filed in the first place! I am so thankful to Jonah. Words fall short to describe Jonah as a defense lawyer! Contact him as soon as you get in trouble with any arrest/allegation. The earlier you get Jonah's help; the better would be the result. He would help you by telling you what wrong was done in your case, and how you could improve it. If you are a first time offender, (or things just hapenned because of miscommunication or misunderstanding) he will help you improve and make sure it never happens again. Our situation had the best outcome! More than anything, after we got the decision; Jonah made sure I was safe and I felt supported in case I needed him in future. I am going to follow his SHORT and LONG term advice. I will have his number in my emergency contacts (lol). Jonah is the BEST! Thanks again Jonah.... I would have given you 10stars if I got an option. You are a relief!

I cannot say enough good things about Jonah. He is an outstanding lawyer. He has represented me in the past when I was going through a very rough period and helped me see my way out. So when my brother who suffers from schizophrenia found himself in a bad situation, I immediately called Jonah. Without going into detail I can say that my family and I are so grateful that I did. He's attentive, compassionate, professional and highly dedicated to helping good people deal with bad situations. His communication style made my brother feel like he was a person. It was clear that he understood that my brother is a good person suffering from a complicated medical condition vs a crazy criminal and with his help, we were able to get his case dismissed. If you're looking for representation, I highly recommend the Law Offices of Jonah Chew. He's the best defense lawyer you can get and an amazing human being.

Jonah was hired by me during a time, when I was facing a lot of stress and uncertainty in my life. He understood what I was going throug, and was there every step of the way. Jonah has a lot of experience in criminal trials and was a public defender so he knew how help those in need. He is professional but, at the same time easy to talk to, and work with. What stood out the most was how compassionate he was towards me and my situation. I have never met a lawyer so understanding yet willing go out of his way, to put your mind at ease. I highly recommend this individual because of his integrity, compassion, professionalism and expertise. You will not disappointed if you decide to retain the services of Jonah Chew. Give him a try and you will see what I mean.

Was in dire need of a lawyer for my case so I contacted the law offices of Jonah Chew. Without going into too much detail, I can say that Jonah displayed a level of unparalleled professionalism throughout this long, tiring ordeal. Mr Chew was non-judgmental but also personable and made me feel like I could reach out to him whatever time of day. Despite his heavy caseload he made sure to take the time to make sure whatever needs or questions I had at the time were addressed and always feeling re-assured and in good hands. His communication, follow-ups, and depth of knowledge was simply amazing. Mr Chew is also extremely experienced with the court system and was able to leverage his rapport with the prosecutors, DAs, and judges to ensure I was getting the best outcome. It is unclear whether a lawyer without prior experience working in these specific court systems could've yielded a better outcome. I think the case could've easily gone south had I not gone through this ordeal with Mr Chew. I honestly had not expected this level of service given the pricing. Mr Chew went above and beyond his call of duty. I am extremely releived to have done the research when searching for representation. It does make a difference.

If you need an attorney and you havent got one yet, GET JONAH! If you already have an attorney, LEAVE HIM AND GET JONAH! Jonah is hands down the best attorney I have ever had. He was very understanding and works with you to have the best case possible to present in court. He was able to reduce my felony to a misdemeanor. Thanks Jonah!

Jonah is a life saver. My mother and I were referred to Jonah by an attorney in Oakland. This attorney promised us that we would be in "good hands". From then on, that is exactly what has occurred. As this was my first offense, I was very honest about my lack of knowledge of the justice system and court procedures. He was with me every step of the way with my numerous questions and worries. He made us feel as comfortable as possible (I was super nervous about my future). We felt like we can put our full trust in him, and fortunately, I am very glad we did. He was able to reduce my felony into a misdemeanor with just a few days of community service, and no restitution. In San Mateo County! Like magic. He is a very well respected attorney, and well known in the courts. My mother and I are thankful for you Jonah Chew! you are Family to us.

As an attorney Jonah is diligent and always willing to go the extra mile. I've hired attorneys in the past but never felt as comfortable and well taken care of as I did with Jonah. Hands down Jonah is one of the hardest working and best attorneys I have ever come across. I can honestly say I would recommend Jonah to anyone who ever needs an attorney

Jonah has a type of energy that will make you feel comfortable, as well as make you feel less stressed by his presence. My mother and I were referred to Jonah by an attorney in SF and said we were in good hands. As my first offense, I did not have much knowledge on what to do in terms of the justice system, and he was with us every step of the way. He was able to reduce my felony into a misdemeanor with community service and no restitution.. in San Mateo County! He also is super charismatic, funny, knows practically everyone, and very well respected in the community. He is definitely a life saver, and now a long time friend, and treated my mother and I as family. We are forever grateful for you!
