Amazing lawyer and team. 100% recommend

I had an amazing experience with Cheryl and her team. She is great at communicating with you, replies really fast (which is rare in some law offices based in my previous experience with others attorneys), also she tells you what needs do be done with no time wasting. I had my whole work permit and g...reen card process with her, total of 5 years and definitely will work with her again when needed.

Life-Changing Immigration Help After 13 Years of Waiting

After 13 years of waiting and struggling to get my green card, the Law Office of Cheryl R. David made the impossible happen—in just 2 months. Before coming to this firm, I had another lawyer who didn’t care about my case. I wasted so much time and money without any results. It was frustrating and ...discouraging. Then I found this incredible team. Lindsey, in particular, is truly exceptional. She treated my case with urgency, care, and professionalism. What others couldn’t resolve for over a decade, she made happen quickly and smoothly. I am beyond grateful. If you’re looking for an immigration attorney who cares and delivers results, this is the team you need. They changed my life.

Excellent work

I'm so happy that my spouse and I worked with Cheryl David's office to apply for a marriage based green card. The team was great to work with, very responsive and knowledgeable. They answered all of our questions and made us feel calm and at ease. Thank you so much! If we were to do it all over again..., we would hire them in a heartbeat.

Green Card Application

I was recommended Cheryl’s services for a green card application and found the process of working with her firm to be very straightforward and efficient. Cheryl is responsive and transparent regarding processes and timing. Highly recommend.

"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."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
