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.

Cheddi is absolutely amazing! He took on my case with confidence and a determination to ease the pain associated with being in and out of court. I’d recommend him to anyone looking for a compassionate attorney who’s willing to fight tooth and nail for your needs.
