I endorse this lawyer. Aggressive, knowledgeable, tenacious, able advocate with excellent judgment as to how to evaluate and present a criminal trial; great mastery of rules of evidence - knows how to tailor & present a defense, has superb writing skills and insight regarding appellate advocacy - especially with respect to evaluation and presentation of federal criminal appeals - briefs and arguments and superb insight and candor re the merits of ineffective assistance claims and skillful dogged pursuit of relief. Extensive trial experience both in federal courts in the Baltimore/Washington DC and nearby Virginia & local District of Colombia courts. Clearly in demand from nationwide clientele through renown for effective appellate advocacy.

Cheryl is a good writer, an excellent trial attorney – and a quick study. Last year I referred her a prisoner who had filed a 2255 motion without the assistance of an attorney. The motion, which alleged that his previous attorney had been ineffective, was scheduled for a hearing within a few weeks. Cheryl was not only able to prepare for the hearing on short notice – but was able to win the 2255 motion. A testament to her skill as a trial advocate. Cheryl’s legal memorandums are well written, clear, and convincing

I strongly endorse Cheryl Stein as a capable and caring advocate, and a top-shelf lawyer. I have benefited from Cheryl's many thoughtful interactions with the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, and she has often shared her vast trial knowledge and experience with me whenever I needed it. I'm lucky to know Cheryl, and clients will be too.
