In a sentence: Michelle Cheney is a great lawyer!

Our experience with Michelle Cheney has been wonderful. She cared about our family, listened, was always there for us, FOUGHT hard for us, and we know God blessed us with her. Many times when you need legal counsel you are just “a case” and are not given 100%, due to I’m sure heavy case loads, but ...Michelle Cheney can manage heavy case loads and still make you feel like you are her only and top priority in her busy work day. My family and I cannot say enough about her abilities. If you are in need of an attorney (ours was an adoption case) you will not be disappointed by Michelle Cheney. She was instrumental in putting our family together!!! She is hands down the BEST ATTORNEY I have ever seen.

I can not believe how much she had grown when I saw you last. I appreciate your kind words and I hope that you and your family are doing amazing! Your family crosses my mind all the time and it was a blessing to be able to work with such amazing people.

Quick Response on Short Notice

My wife and I needed an attorney for an adoption of a newborn baby. Due to some strange circumstances we had no time to hire an attorney or prepare for this adoption. To make matters more complicated we needed papers drawn up and legal advice on the weekend. A friend of ours recommended Michelle Chen...ey. To our surprise she jumped in our situation ON THE WEEKEND and made a difficult situation fairly easy. Michelle did all of this before actually being retained. Throughout the adoption process we were very pleased with Michelle. We would highly recommend Michelle! Our adoption was completed in a timely manner and we can't thank Michelle enough.

Lawyer who gets the job done!

Michelle is a family gal practicing family law. She is VERY well versed in laws regarding child custody. My family met her in CPS court while fostering and adopting 2 children. I watched her in that venue and knew if i ever needed a family lawyer I would hire her. And when the time came, we went dire...ctly to Michelle. She is aggressive, energetic and on fire for what she does and strives to be the best which makes a huge difference in how an attorney represents you. The word Lazy is NOT in her vocabulary. My situation involved my grandson and my son getting at least 50/50 custody. WE WON!!

"I highly recommend Michelle for any mediation needs. She is my choice mediator, especially on highly contested divorce or modification cases that other mediators cannot get settled. She is affordable for clients, while providing excellent skills that other mediators charge triple her rates. She comes in with a plan of action, doesn't waste time and doesn't give up. I have used other mediators that have walked in with a "this case will not settle" attitude. You will never get that from Michelle! Carla S. Rankin Family Law Attorney Dallas, Texas"
