Joseph A. Cheek

Attorney Joseph A. Cheek has been my trusted legal advisor for many years. He was referred to me by a good friend after I experienced a "slip and fall" accident at a nightclub due to negligence, in 2007. The fall resulted in a severe life threatening injury from blood loss. After 2 blood transfusions..., surgery, and 16 weeks of physical therapy, I needed help recovering extremely high medical costs. I was also seeking help with time off of work and missed college classes at UNC Charlotte which I was forced to halfway through my senior year. I hadn't even thought about future longterm damage to my leg and ability to walk that would remain impossible to predict until Attorney Cheek took my case. He took my unfortunate situation seriously and promised to be dedicated to gaining the best possible outcome for resolving the debt and physical harm caused by careless behavior and code violations of the nightclub. Mr. Cheek was hands on, aggressive, showed strong initiative, and remained highly communicative and transparent with me throughout the entire process. These cases can be lengthy and drawn out depending on the nature of the Injury and most importantly, the work habits of your lawyer and where they decide your case will be placed on their priority scale versus their other active cases. I paid nothing out of pocket due to the contingency of the case. Final settlement received all costs and debt for medical bills, in addition to a settlement for university level courses dropped, missed wages, emotional damage due to trauma, as well as punitive damages for future physical/health repercussions. Mr. Cheek actually empathized with me as a young athlete, a hard worker and a college student who's future was on the line. His dedication was exactly what I hoped for and feel very fortunate to have found him. Since 2007 I've worked with Attorney Jospeh A. Cheek on several traffic tickets and a couple of civil cases. Each time he has gone above and beyond for me and never treats me like "just another case" like a lot of lawyers do. I highly recommend him for any personal injury or traffic help. His commitment to clients, as well as passion for law and helping others is beyond what's expected or delivered these days. Carolyn L.
