Notable Cases Handled by Houston Criminal Defense Attorney Ed Chernoff and Their Results

As a Houston criminal defense attorney, I have had the privilege of representing some of the most high-profile and complex cases in the city. One of my most notable cases was the defense of a celebrity athlete facing charges of domestic violence. Through a thorough investigation and a strong defense strategy, I was able to secure a favorable outcome for my client and protect their reputation. Another case that stands out was the representation of a prominent business executive charged with securities fraud. My team and I were able to successfully challenge the prosecution’s evidence and negotiate a plea deal that minimized the impact on my client’s career and personal life. These cases are a testament to my dedication to providing the best possible defense for my clients and fighting for their rights.

To learn more about a few of my most notable cases, please check out the examples below or view the notable cases section of my firm blog:

State of Texas V. Carlton S.

This client came to me before charges were filed. He was accused of rape by a longtime friend of his and had heard that police were investigating. He was scared, of course. He was in his twenties and had just begun a lucrative career.

State of Texas V. Akbar J.

In this case, I negotiated a dismissal in a family assault case in Harris County Court at Law. The description of the process is typical of my defense in assault cases.
