About Cheddi
Biography
I strive to serve the legitimate interests of the public through competent, diligent, prompt and zealous legal guidance and counseling, with a keen emphasis on cultural sensitivity and coming up with innovative solutions at affordable costs.
I seek to emphasize individualized, inclusive and humanistic client service in a manner that mitigates the ill-suited perception of the legal process as adversarial and conflict-driven, by focusing on resolution through compromise and the unification of parties riven asunder. In so doing, it is my hope that I will be able to carry on my grandparents, Cheddi and Janet Jagan's legacy of fighting relentlessly for the betterment of all.
