Gail Raulerson Cheatwood

You know I had to actually laugh when I read the latest AVVO rating on this woman, apparently written by a "disgrunted" "CHRONIC" complainer, who from the words written speak for themselves. I would put money on this that it was written by a grown man who holds himself out to be "greater" than now. ... I also know this lady and have known her for many years. She does have a very small office, and yes, her paralegal does share office space with her. And I do believe that I have even seen a file on the floor, perhaps more than once. But when you need something or an attorney to be standing beside you, you can bet your last dollar that GAIL R. CHEATWOOD will be there. I have seen this in the past also. As my mother always said, if you can't say something nice, then "shut up". Look in the mirror and take heed. Ms. Cheatwood has a lot of people who care about her and I do mean a lot. She surely deserves a better rating that what she has, but you know what? I am sure that she won't lose any sleep over this one. Good try though!!! Better luck next time!!

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!!
