About Cheryl
Biography
For the last 25 years, I have helped many clients with a variety of legal matters. I understand the stress and anxiety that a client goes through in the midst of these life changing events. My practice focuses on divorce, custody & support. I have handled cases worth millions of dollars and cases where the only things to divide are the clients‘ furniture. I give every single client the best experience and my unwavering dedication to their goals. What do I try to achieve? A satisfied client. Period. That means I answer your calls, am prepared in court and treat you like the important person that you are. If something isn’t right, I will do all that I can to fix it.
I have extensive trial experience, but I am committed to helping each client resolve their matters out of court whenever possible. Focusing on each client's particular needs and desires, in addition to a deep commitment to client service, is the foundation of my practice. Listening and working together with the client to develop a game plan is essential to a productive attorney-client relationship. I try my best to satisfy the client's needs, and to achieve productive resolutions, using a combination of negotiation, as well as litigation strategies. Throughout the case, my client and I work as a team, keeping in communication with each other, to ensure that questions are answered, and we can tweak our approach to various issues along the way.
Give us a call. You will find my seasoned staff to be personable, professional and committed to helping you every step of the way. All of us in my office believe that client service is top priority. Your phone call will be answered timely by a human being, never an answering machine. We don't have anwering machines and we don't have menus that ask you to wait until someone live picks up the phone. Why? Because I strongly believe that most people need to hear from a caring person immediately. We care about you. For our veterans and those currently serving in the military, I am happy to take 10% off all fees. Family members of mine have served in every war going back to WWII.
I would appreciate the opportunity to be of help, so please give us a call and let us set up a time for a free consultation to go over your legal problem or issue. I look forward to seeing you. From all of us at the Rowe Law Offices family, thank you for your time.
