About:
When as a political novice Damon Chetson ran for Wake County District Attorney in 2022 against a powerful incumbent and earned nearly 42 percent of the vote, he did so because he believes in the promise of our Criminal Justice System. Because he’s a champion of people who fight for justice. And because he doesn’t shy away from a tough fight. As a North Carolina Board Certified Specialist in State and Federal Criminal Law, Damon Chetson has fought (and won) more trials than some defense lawyers try in a lifetime.

"Last week Mr Chetson was able to dismiss my case after a few months of hard work and determination. I'm forever grateful for him and very thankful we got the outcome we deserved. Will definitely recommend him to others if need be! Wonderful guy"
