  • Can Cheryl take my case if I'm outside the area?

    Cheryl evaluates matters case by case. If the venue is outside Cheryl's regular jurisdictions, the intake call will confirm whether direct representation or a referral makes more sense.

  • What should I bring to my first meeting with Cheryl?

    Bring every document that touches the dispute: contracts, correspondence, police or medical reports, filed pleadings, invoices, photographs, insurance letters. Also bring a written timeline of what happened, in your own words. Cheryl will filter what matters — over-preparing at intake is always cheaper than needing a second meeting.
