Gail Raulerson Cheatwood

I had a criminal case which I was not guilty of to begin with. I had several free visits with two other attorneys before visiting Ms. Cheatwood's office. I was very satisfied with her mannerism, her knowledge and her frankness regarding my situation. Talk about telling it like it is. She did. Sh...e did not try to reel me in like the others that I had seen previously and that meant a lot to me when it came time to make my decision on who I would hire to represent me. Ms. Cheatwood asked me who I had spoken to before and when I told her, she commented that they were both competent and well respected attorneys. This impressed me more than the initial consultation. I was also shocked at her fee, in that I was expecting to be handing out much more than I actually did. She does work with her clients and arranges a payment plan for you. She won my case and I just want to return the favor and tell everyone who reads this, that this should be the attorney for you.

Ms. Cheatwood represented me in a criminal case. I called for an appointment and was quite shocked by the retainer that she quoted me. I had already called other attorneys in Lakeland and they all wanted thousands of dollars and they wanted it up front before they filed one document on my behalf. ...Ms. Cheatwood explained to me that she tries to charge by the case and she works with the normal every day working people. She understands that not everyone has money stashed away for an attorney. She took my case for less than half of what the others were wanting and even let me make payments. She trusted me, therefore, I will surely pass her name around as being truthful, honest and a hard working attorney. She worked my case and I only had to go to Court one time so I did not have to miss work. I knew what was going to happen prior to my going to Court and when I walked in the Courtroom, it was done and overwith in a matter of a few minutes. I was not nervous or scared, as I had been previously. She is an awesome woman and I recommend her to any person who needs an attorney for a criminal case. She works for you, the client. Thanks Ms. Cheatwood for helping me when no one else would. I guess that is where the saying comes in, Money Talks!!! Not in all situations. God Bless!!
