This review is from a potential client who consulted with this attorney.

Highly recommend

I’ve been a lawyer in Greensboro, representing Social Security claimants, for over 30 years, have had several cases where my work with clients overlapped Cheryl David’s work. She is extremely competent and great to work with from my viewpoint and that of her clients I’ve heard from.

Kristina Smith

I contacted Justin Plumer in 2014. He helped with an estate for my stepmother which was complicated. Justin and the team at Cheryl David and Associates got all the research I needed without me having to do anything. At the time I was living 200 + miles away and working full time. This was a huge help... for me. I recently needed some receipts from their office and they dug through old files to once again save me time and effort. I would recommend this office to anyone who needs legal advise and estate planning and someone who truly cares. Kristina Hobgood Smith

quick response, very personable during a tough time

I had to find an attorney quickly, since my brother passed without a will. Cheryl was quick to respond to me. Although, ultimately she referred me to someone else in her practice, that specializes in probate, Cheryl was caring and understanding and explained to me the process. I highly recommend her... firm.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
