Remember, you're paying for that bitchy attitude

First of all, her profile pic is 30 years old. If you are a stay at home mom/dad who is guaranteed a big payout/settlement, then this is the attorney for you. If you are the breadwinner (male or female) who needs a lawyer to actually work for you, then look elsewhere. She has a bitchy attitude and ma...kes careless mistakes, certainly not worth the hourly rate.

Hired to close my divorce settlement

Cheryl came highly recommended to me as a shark. I expected her to easily close my deal. Yet, I alot of writing up the paperwork and she wouldn’t push back on items against my ex, so I had to fire her. She cost me thousands, she’s not worth the 5k retainer, she takes the check and does NOT FIG...HT for you. She was down right insulting to me as a female and for her being the first female attorney I hired —it was all very surprising. She should retire now.

Really helped my case

After 2 years of major court issues and having to change lawyers because of not getting work done and over billing, I hired Ms Young for family divorce issues with my ex who would not follow the rules. She is honest, direct and cleaned up the mess others left in a short period of time. And helped sta...bilized our kids school issues and finances. She is top of the line and worth every cent.

Finally an honest solid lawyer !

I used Ms Young in a terrible divorce after 2 prior lawyers who did nothing. Ms young was compassionate but solid in every way. Worth every cent and she made it fair vs a battle like the other lawyer tried. She commands respect and I am very appreciative

Restores your trust in lawyers!

Ms Young represented me in a very hard divorce and custody. I did not think I had much of a chance because the other side created so much drama. . She is tough, HONEST and no nonsense so be ready for her sharp tone. I court, she is brilliant and respected. She got me 100% more than I expected in PA... knew --all by following the law and doing a great job. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

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.
