I have practiced almost exclusively family law for more than a decade. In doing so, I have successfully guided clients through all aspects of family law including negotiating prenuptial agreements, custody and support proceedings, divorce, and the resolution of post-divorce matters. I recognize that family issues which lead clients to Family Court and/or Supreme Court are often life changing. As such, my practice of law is zealous but always cognizant of the practical and emotional implications of settlement negotiations and litigation. I am also equipped to handle related matters that often arise in the wake of family law proceedings including real estate, simple probate and administration proceedings, wills, powers of attorney, and health care proxies. I regularly represent clients in both Supreme and Family Courts in Westchester and surrounding counties.

My story begins with two prior lawyers stating that what is being offered is the best that I would get as far as a settlement regarding my divorce and custody. I was not satisfied with that and went to seek other opinions. Upon my consultation with Ms. Cheryl Slater, I knew that I had found the bes...

Cheryl is a saint to me. As a single father in a child custody case my initial outlook on my situation was abysmal. My daughter is my life and soul. I felt I had no chance at keeping her with me, giving her the life she deserved. Cheryl fought beyond aggressively for me for 7 long years. She first wo...

Cheryl was firm and took a hard line when it was appropriate yet reasonable and logical when necessary. I would definitely recommend her to my friends. She once said this to me, "It's not about getting what you want.......it's about getting what you can live with."
"Cheryl is my Partner at Farrauto Berman Slater & Michaeli. We met in 2013 as adversaries on a case and immediately respected one another’s abilities as litigators. Cheryl and I have now been partners for many years. I have never had a case with any lawyer who comes close to Cheryl when it comes to the level of advocacy and compassion she exudes. She is quite honestly brilliant. Outside of the legal sector, Cheryl is also the top echelon of people - she is a remarkably dedicated friend and always goes above and beyond for those she cares about. She’s got a unique personality that amalgamates bold, sassy, snarky, genius, boss-lady and best of all, she’s got a heart of gold. I can’t recommend any other lawyer more highly than I recommend Cheryl; I felt that way when I left my former firm to join her practice in 2013 and I still feel that way now. You’re in the best of hands with Cheryl"
