Cheronis, Parente & Levitt LLC: About Our Firm

Cheronis, Parente & Levitt LLC is regarded as one of the most preeminent criminal defense firms in Chicago. We are dedicated to providing the highest quality representation to individuals charged with serious federal and state offenses. Thus, our firm is comprised of trial lawyers, always willing to innovatively and fearlessly present even the most complex and challenging cases to a jury for our client’s betterment. Our firm likewise is well known for employing an aggressive and creative motion practice to give its client every advantage when it comes time for trial. For those whose best interests require negotiating the best possible resolution short of trial, we know all too well that favorable dispositions are not something freely offered by federal or state prosecutors; rather, they are born from counsel’s reputation for trying cases and challenging the government, aggressively litigating discovery and pretrial motions, and otherwise relentlessly preparing the defense.
This firm is small by design. We are selective in the cases we take in order to ensure that all partners have their fingers on the pulse of each matter. Our clients include public officials, celebrities, lawyers, doctors, politicians and CEOs. Our attorneys have a wealth of experience nationwide handling a wide variety of legal matters, focusing on trial work in federal white collar, corruption and violent drug crimes and their state corollaries, as well as appeals before the 7th Circuit and other U.S. Circuit Courts of Appeals, Illinois Appellate Courts, and the Illinois Supreme Court, and in grand jury and other criminal investigations.

Unwavering Commitment To Clients
Our attorneys come to the office every day not only with the knowledge that our clients have entrusted us with their life, liberty and property, but also knowing well that we are all that stands between them and what often proves to be the most difficult and trying experience of their life. That, in turn, gives us an acute awareness of the respect and trust our clients have placed in us. It motivates us to work tirelessly, to fight without reserve, and ultimately, to pursue every case as if our own livelihood is hung in the balance.
