Testimonial
- In 2016, C.W. was charged in federal court with being a member of a drug conspiracy distributing pills. Her recommended sentence was 30-37 months. The sentence Attorney David Chontos was able to obtain was 25 months.
  
  "In the beginning I was difficult to deal with and at sometimes I felt you weren’t working in my favor, but, as I sit back and reflect, I can honestly say you did a good job and I’m forever thankful for your service."

- Attorney Jennifer Chontos has provided great legal services with outstanding results in both of my divorces. She has gone above and beyond in my complicated legal situations.
  
  Very compassionate and understanding, also very tough in her legal commitment to get the job done. Chontos & Chontos has also provided very good legal advice in other areas. They come very highly recommended in my opinion and I would definitely use their services with any other legal matters that may come along.

- When I first signed on with Jennifer at Chontos and Chontos, neither of us knew we were in for a ride that was going to redefine high-conflict. But through it all, Jennifer has always given me the sort of attention that makes me feel I'm her only client, giving me as much time as I've needed and always glad to go a few extra miles for me. Over the years, Jennifer has taught me that the strongest position isn't one of getting even but of being fair and reasonable, and time and again, my kids and I have reaped the many benefits of her level-headed approach -- which I've begun working to emulate in my personal life. I've referred friends to Jennifer and will continue to do so, and really, that's the highest praise I can heap on anyone.

We can’t say enough good things about Jennifer and recommend her highly.

- I have had the pleasure of working with Jennifer on two separate occasions. The initial meeting was a revision of wills, POA's, and medical directives for both my husband and me. The second, was following the death of my father. I met again with Jennifer to process his will and estate. On both occasions, she was knowledgeable, efficient, and responded quickly to all questions and concerns. Attorney Chontos was a pleasure to work with, and I would do it again.

- Jennifer Chontos is fantastic attorney. I previously spent thousands of dollars and over 2 years from another attorney trying to get a divorce but, nothing was done! Nothing! A friend recommended Jennifer. Jennifer was very prompt and efficient. She was in constant communication with me. She gave me “tasks to complete” and followed up to be sure I completed them. During this process she even recommend other attorneys to help with other issues, such as a new will and regaining possession of personal property. These attorneys were also great. Her prices are very reasonable. Her guidance through this painful process was priceless. She got the matter completed in a timely manner. I believe this divorce was too complicated for the first attorney that I hired, but his ego stood in the way to help me. Jennifer was up for the challenge.
  
  Suzanne
- I first came to Jennifer in 2014 with an issue that required sound expertise. Jennifer is attentive, she listens to what you have going on and is able to quickly formulate an actionable plan. Jennifer is empathetic, accommodating, decisive, and astute; everything that an attorney should be, and yet more. She is confident, not cocky; perceptive, yet unassuming. Jennifer is fair, reasonable, and genuine; she doesn’t sugar coat anything, she says what needs to be said. Jennifer’s candid and honest conduct is highly desirable when one is seeking legal counsel.

Success Story
- Federal criminal matter. Client was charged with selling cocaine to an informant. Weight triggered no mandatory minimum sentence, but it was client’s 3rd felony drug conviction – all in federal court. Client faced enhanced sentencing as he was deemed a career offender. Guidelines said he should get 151 months (12 ½ years). We argued for 8 years (96 months). The Court sentenced client to 100 months, a little over 8 years. D.W. April 2019
- Traffic Violation Trouble? See how we can help. A junior in college with a good academic record but a terrible driving record came to see me. What can be done? His driving history showed 7 outstanding matters; all carried license suspensions. A divide and conquer strategy was implemented. Contact was made with the court for each of the matters and hearings were set. Given the passage of time, two hearings resulted in dismissals because the officers were not present. For the 5 others, negotiation led to guilty pleas. But admissions of guilt only to those violations which carried a fine and not a license suspension. It took 9 months to accomplish, but now this college senior can look forward to graduation knowing that he can legally drive to his first job.
- Client was charged with burglarizing his neighbor’s home Police came to house to arrest him. He would not leave. More police showed up. After a 90 minute standoff, client was arrested and had some struggles with police getting in and out of police car. Client faced multiple felonies related to the home invasion and aggravated assault on a police officer. Pre-trial motions got rid of some of the charges. Leading up to trial, the judge ruled we could cross examine the government witnesses and present evidence in our case about the deal my client had with the homeowner because it showed a motive to lie and say client broke into his home. The deal was client provides labor and materials for a porch deck and ramp and homeowner provides client with marijuana. Once that ruling was made, the case was resolved for a guilty plea to a misdemeanor assault on the officer and 18 months’ probation. All other charges – including three felonies – were dismissed.
