Best Immigration Lawyer

No one understands the system better than Cheryl. She's smart, resourceful and makes things happen. She was proactive and did extensive research to prepare me for my case. Even through some unexpected developments, I always felt she had my best interest and skillfully argued my case to its successful... conclusion. I trust her implicitly.

Excellent Attorney! Strongly recommend to anybody who needs a trustworthy immigration attorney. Please read!

Before we met with Cheryl David, our family has gone through a nightmare of dealing with 3 other attorneys that we hired prior to her in New York city. The case was a matter of life for us (literally). We were ready to fight for it and pay as much as needed. Every time we met with one of the previou...s attorneys, we stressed how important the case was to us and that we would pay as much as needed, but needed to make sure the case was handled diligently and needed a lot of attention. Everybody promised to us what asked for before we paid the retainers. Every time the process started, we were realizing quickly that either attorneys were not quailified enough (despite we were very careful hiring them) or they just wanted our money. It sounds quite cliche, but if you ever been in our position (sincerely hope not though), you would understand exactly what I mean. God only knows how much tears, pain, disappointment, time and money all of it cost us.... Our case was very complicated and required quite a lot of attention to detail, patience, a great amount of understanding of the situation and a substantial number of documents involved. Communication was extremely critical for all parties involved. Cheryl exceeded all of our expectations and helped us win our case. Anybody who deals with her professionally, personally or any other capacity are surely proud to know such a reputable and highly professional attorney, great person the way she is and have no doubts great friend to her friends. My wife and I are thanking our destiny that our pathes crossed with her! This message probably cannot express everything we can about Cheryl, please connect with us through the e-mail and we will be happy to recommend her over the phone or in person if needed.

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I am very impressed with Cheryl David's ability to successfully represent immigrants in difficult removal cases. Cheryl is a highly regarded by her peers in the immigration bar. Last week, she was reelected to the National Board of Governors of the American Immigration Lawyers Association (AILA). She also chairs AILA's New York ICE Detention and Removal Committee. I have been practicing immigration law for over 30 years, both for the INS and in private practice, and whenever I have a difficult removal case in the New York area, I refer the matter to Cheryl David."
