Great Lawyer, very Competent, Brillant!
Ms. Cherry took my case a few months ago when other attorneys turned my case down. She was very attentive, responsive and kept me informed through the entire process. Needless to say she won my case!

Great Employment Lawyer!
Attorney Cherry was an excellent employment attorney who really helped me in a difficult situation. I was wrongfully fired months before I was ready to retire on a job I had held for almost 30 years. She got me reinstated with back pay which saved my house and family! Good job Rita!

Rita Cherry review. "Grossly incompetent"
Without a doubt the laziest, most incompetent lawyer I have ever encountered. Failed to even request evidence under discovery that I had asked her to. Failed to advise me of my rights. Failed to explain to me the consequences of a plea.
