After law school, Chemerinsky worked as an honors attorney in the Civil Division of the U.S. Department of Justice from 1978 to 1979, then entered private practice at the Washington, D.C., law firm Dobrovir, Oakes & Gebhardt.{{cite web |last1=Dybis |first1=Karen |title=A Path to Greatness |url=https://www.nationaljurist.com/content/path-greatness |website=National Jurist |access-date=October 9, 2021 |date=May 27, 2009}} In 1980, Chemerinsky was hired as an assistant professor of law at DePaul University College of Law. He moved to the Gould School of Law at the University of Southern California (USC) in 1983. Chemerinsky taught at USC from 1983 to 2004, then joined the faculty of Duke University School of Law.

In 2008, Chemerinsky was named the inaugural dean of the newly established University of California, Irvine School of Law. In 2017, he became dean of the UC Berkeley School of Law, where he is also the Jesse H. Choper Distinguished Professor of Law.{{Cite news|url=http://www.latimes.com/socal/daily-pilot/news/tn-dpt-me-uci-law-dean-20170517-story.html|title=UCI law school's Chemerinsky takes new position at UC Berkeley|last=Zint|first=Bradley|date=May 17, 2017|work=Los Angeles Times|access-date=May 19, 2017|language=en-US|issn=0458-3035}}

Erwin Chemerinsky, a prominent figure in law and civic affairs, has made significant contributions to various legal and governmental initiatives. He notably served on a panel within the Los Angeles Police Department, tasked with investigating the Rampart Scandal, and participated in a commission examining irregularities in city contracting processes. Additionally, his involvement in drafting the Los Angeles city charter underscores his contribution to municipal governance.{{cite journal|url=https://review.law.stanford.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2017/06/69-Stan.-L.-Rev.-1765.pdf|title=Leadership in Law Schools|first1=Erwin|last1=Chemerinsky|volume=69|issue=June 2017|journal=Stanford Law Review|page=1765|year=2017|quote=Most importantly, I was elected by Los Angeles voters in 1997 to a commission to rewrite the Los Angeles City Charter and then chosen by my fellow commissioners to chair the Elected Los Angeles City Charter Reform Commission.|access-date=July 18, 2024}}

In 1995, Chemerinsky provided commentary on the O. J. Simpson trial for several media outlets, including KCBS-TV, KNX, and CBS News. Beyond local matters, he also played a role in shaping international legal frameworks, having assisted in drafting the Constitution of Belarus. Furthermore, his efforts extended to social advocacy, as he was a founding member of the Progressive Jewish Alliance.{{cite web|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2022/12/21/us/uc-berkeley-free-speech.html|title=At Berkeley Law, a Debate Over Zionism, Free Speech and Campus Ideals|first1=Vimal|last1=Patel|website=The New York Times|date=December 21, 2022|access-date=July 18, 2024|quote=In 1999, he helped found the Progressive Jewish Alliance, a social justice group based in Los Angeles.}}

Chemerinsky's commitment to fostering open dialogue is evidenced by his role as the National Advisory Board Co-chair of the UC Free Speech Center. In a more administrative capacity, he was appointed to Los Angeles District Attorney George Gascón's transition team in 2020. His dedication to legal education and leadership is exemplified by his selection as the President of the Association of American Law Schools for the term spanning 2021-2022.{{cite web|url=https://www.law.com/2023/01/04/chemerinsky-reviews-past-year-as-aals-president/|title=Chemerinsky Reviews Past Year as AALS President|website=Law.com|publisher=ALM Global, LLC|first1=Christine|last1=Charnosky|date=January 4, 2023|access-date=July 18, 2024}}

Chemerinsky supports gun control and disagreed with the decision in District of Columbia v. Heller. He thinks that even if an individual's right to bear arms exists, the District of Columbia was justified in restricting that right because it believed that the law would lessen violence.{{cite news |title = A Well-Regulated Right to Bear Arms |newspaper = The Washington Post |date = March 14, 2007 |url = https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/03/13/AR2007031301508.html |access-date = January 22, 2009 | first=Erwin | last=Chemerinsky}} George Will specifically mentioned and responded to Chemerinsky's argument in a column that ran four days later.{{cite news |title = My opinion George F.

Chemerinsky believes that Roe v. Wade was correctly decided.{{cite news |title = Judicial Activism: Playing with the Constitution.

He also believed that gay marriage should be legal many years prior to the decision in Obergefell v. Hodges.

Chemerinsky also represents a client held at the Guantanamo Bay detention center. He supports affirmative action. In January 2017, Chemerinsky, along with other high-profile lawyers, sued President Donald Trump for refusing to "divest from his businesses".{{Cite magazine|url=https://time.com/4643112/donald-trump-ethics-lawsuit-emoluments/|title=What to Know About the Ethics Lawsuit Facing President Trump|magazine=Time|access-date=May 18, 2017}}

In an opinion piece following the 2020 presidential election, Chemerinsky wrote that "the Electoral College makes no sense as a way for a democracy to choose a president." He writes that it was intentionally designed to be anti-democratic and came about as part of "compromises concerning slavery that were at the core of the Constitution's drafting and ratification."{{cite news|url=https://www.sacbee.com/opinion/california-forum/article247079177.html|title=Presidential elections and Senate seats underscore fact that this is not a democracy|last=Chemerinsky|first=Erwin|newspaper=Sacramento Bee|date=November 11, 2020}}

In a New York Times op-ed in August 2021, Chemerinsky argued that California's recall process is unconstitutional. This process called for a two-part ballot, with a yes-no question on whether to remove the governor from office, and then second question to select the candidate to replace the governor, with the governors name absent from that ballot. Chemerinsky argued that a governor receiving just below 50% support in the first question could be removed and replaced by a candidate receiving a much smaller plurality in the second question. This would replace a sitting governor with a candidate that received fewer votes than they did in the same election. Chemerinsky wrote, "[The court] could simply add Mr. Newsom’s name on the ballot to the list of those running to replace him. That simple change would treat his supporters equally to others and ensure that if he gets more votes than any other candidate, he will stay in office".{{cite news|url=https://www.nytimes.com/2021/08/11/opinion/california-recall-election-newsom.html|title=There Is a Problem With California's Recall.

{{main|Irvine 11 controversy}}

In 2010, students who were protesting against UCI's invitation of Israeli Ambassador Michael Oren interrupted his speech several times. Chemerinsky, referring to the heckler's veto, asserted that their protest was a form of punishable civil disobedience and not protected by the First Amendment.{{sfn|Lumb|2010|ps=: Chemerinsky answered student questions that concerned the Oren lecture, which included the remark that while civil disobedience has a place in public discourse, its practitioners are still subject to punishment for breaking the law.}} However, he also strongly criticized the prosecutors' decision to file criminal charges against the students.{{cite news | url=http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/lanow/2011/09/irvine-11-erwin-chemerinsky-calls-convictions-harsh.html | title= 'Irvine 11': UC Irvine law school dean calls convictions 'harsh' | author=Santa Cruz, Nicole | newspaper=Los Angeles Times | date=September 23, 2011 | access-date=May 5, 2014}}

In October 2023, more than 200 Berkeley Law alumni signed an open letter asking Chemerinsky, as dean, to address the harm done by a Wall Street Journal op-ed by Berkeley Law colleague Steven Davidoff Solomon titled "Don’t Hire My Anti-Semitic Law Students." The letter said that Solomon conflated "support for the Palestinian people or criticism of the Israeli government with antisemitism." The alumni urged Chemerinsky to uphold freedom of speech for all students at Berkeley Law, including those that advocated for Palestinian rights, in the wake of threats to pro-Palestine student protestors' freedom of speech at the school. Chemerinsky responded to the Berkeley Law community that Solomon's op-ed was free speech, even if it included language that others found "deeply offensive", while also noting that Solomon expressed a personal opinion and did not speak for the law school.{{Cite web |last=Truong |first=Debbie |date=2023-11-03 |title=A divide over the Israel-Hamas war flares at UC Berkeley Law |url=https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-11-03/a-divide-over-the-israel-hamas-war-flares-at-uc-berkeley-law |access-date=2024-04-11 |website=Los Angeles Times |language=en-US}} Chemerinsky also wrote a Los Angeles Times op-ed denouncing antisemitism on college campuses (including student protestors calling for the "total elimination of Israel"), describing antisemitic remarks directed at him personally, strongly opposing the policies of the Netanyahu government, supporting "full rights for Palestinians", and affirming free speech for students and school administrators alike. He called on fellow university administrators to denounce celebrations of the Oct. 7 Hamas-led attack on Israel.{{Cite web |last=Chemerinsky |first=Erwin |date=2023-10-29 |title=Nothing has prepared me for the antisemitism I see on college campuses now |url=https://www.latimes.com/opinion/story/2023-10-29/antisemitism-college-campus-israel-hamas-palestine |access-date=2024-04-19 |website=Los Angeles Times |language=en-US}} Some alumni criticized Chemerinsky's op-ed, saying it ignored anti-Palestinian racism faced by Berkeley Law students.

Chemerinsky's hiring as dean of the UCI School of Law was controversial. After signing a contract on September 4, 2007, the hire was rescinded by UCI Chancellor Michael V. Drake, who felt the law professor's commentaries were "polarizing." Drake claimed the decision was his own and not the subject of any outside influence.{{cite web|first1=Garrett |last1=Therolf |first2=Henry|last2=Weinstein|url=http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-uci13sep13,1,1474059,full.story |title=UC Irvine post is taken from liberal legal scholar - Criticism follows the dismissal of Erwin Chemerinsky as dean.

The action was criticized by both liberal and conservative scholars, who felt it hindered the academic mission of the law school and violated principles of academic freedom, and few believed Drake's claims that it was not the result of outside influence.Parsons, Dana, [http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-parsons13sep13,1,1694812.column "Excuse for UCI's fumble on law school dean not good enough"], Los Angeles Times, September 13, 2007.

George, who criticized Chemerinsky's grasp of death penalty appeals and a group of prominent local Republicans, including Los Angeles County Supervisor Michael D. Antonovich, who wanted to stop the appointment. Drake traveled over a weekend to meet with Chemerinsky in Durham, North Carolina, where he was a professor at the Duke University School of Law at the time, and the two reached an agreement late Sunday evening.Therolf, Garrett, {{cite web|url=http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-uci18sep18,0,3167475.story?coll%3Dla-home-center |title=News from California, the nation and world |website=Los Angeles Times |access-date=February 6, 2016 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071106040410/http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-uci18sep18,0,3167475.story?coll=la-home-center |archive-date=November 6, 2007 }} "Chemerinsky returns to UC Irvine post", Los Angeles Times, September 17, 2007.
