Most Amazing Lawyer

Firstly, let me say 4000 characters is not nearly enough to give Andrew Cherkasky the praise he deserves. As a deployed member of the Air Force my life changed dramatically when I was informed I was being investigated for crimes I had no idea I had been committing. My circumstances were that of som...eone who was misinformed and naively took a NCOIC's word as law. My ADC had basically advised me that there was a very good chance that I would be convicted of all crimes I was being charged for. He believed I we be imprisioned for an extended period of time and that the prosecution had a very strong case against us. I was fortunate enough to have come across Mr. Cherkasky’s information online and requested a consult. Despite having other cases his response was very immediate. We were on the phone within a short time and speaking in detail about my situation. He provided me with assurances that he was skilled to handled the case and actually had several cases in the past which dealt with the same kind of situation. Upon taking the case he worked tirelessly to hold the JAG to due process and ensured my rights were being respected. His work schedule was almost unbelievable to me. With me being deployed he would take calls sometimes at 1 or 2 in the morning, then would wake the next day early and resume reviewing evidence. His knowledge of due process and the UCMJ was very impressive and he was able to completely answer every question I posed to him off the top of his head. We discussed in detail exactly what I needed to expect as things progressed forward. His goals and mine were completely aligned throughout the process and he was never shy to provided the kind of personal advice that my ADC shyed away from. The work he preformed was brilliant and he considered each aspect for the case from many viewpoints. He always listened to my suggestions and was never dismissive of my opinion despite my lack of judicial experience. He worked hard to ensure he was always moving forward in the direction I wanted him to. In my case I was exonerated of all charges and redeployed home. Once home there were still administrative issues to deal with. Even though much less was at stake once the charges were dropped, Mr. Cherkasky continued to work as an advisor and even reviewed all of my administrative paperwork. With regards to value... no matter what the cost you are getting his services at a bargain. His pricing was more competitive than any other lawyer I priced. If I hit the lottery I will definitely mail him a check to express my gratitude. Please contact me if you'd like and I can provide more information about Mr. Cherkasky's work ethic.

Mr. Cherkasky, is a great Military defense lawyer. He takes his time to evaluate each situation and then he gives you an honest opinion. I have worked with Andy for the past three months. Normally most lawyers would have become very frustrated with my situation because it was so drawn out. Andy made ...the necessary phone calls and did the necessay research, actually he put in more that the required work. His prices are very reasonable. Mr. Cherkasky has prior military experience and uses that experience to help every unique situation. What I mostly admired is the fact that he is always available when you call or email. I think he is very fair and sympathetic. My allegations were enough to get me out the military with the going rate of draw down across forces. However, I believe the advice and dedication that was put into my case helped me. Andy thinks in legal terms, he will tell you like he sees it. I believe if you chose Mr. Andrew Cherkasky to represent you, you will not regret the decision that you have made.

Client Review of Andrew D. Cherkasky

Andrew Cherkasky impressed me during our first phone conversation. I contacted five different law firms, twice, speaking with them at length regarding my concerns and situation. I put a lot of effort in to researching these different firms and chose Andy above all others. Andy was responsive, knowled...geable, and sympathetic throughout the process. He was available, 24/7, and always took the time to speak with me regarding my concerns and where we were at in the process. I quickly learned that he possess unmatched drive and determination. He attacks problems from all angles before settling on a course of action and plays each one out in great detail. The benefits of his actions were apparent long before we stepped foot in the hearing; amassing a sizeable defense file. He kept me informed and sought my input on all matters. During proceedings he was unleashed and fought for every inch; unwilling to yield to even the slightest jest from the prosecutors. He produced a favorable outcome for me and it's easy to say that I have the highest respect for his character and abilities. This is who you want in your corner.
