Family law is not just something I do to earn a living. I love what I do as a family law attorney and mediator. As an attorney I am able to help many clients protect their children and their assets. As a mediator I am able to help individuals and their attorneys resolve cases before the expense of a trial.
I am a parent of a teenager and over the years have been able to help my clients because I understand the importance of their children.

AWESOME
Michelle was such a blessing to me. She truly took my case to heart and fought for the best interest of my child. She kept me informed throughtout the entire process and billed more than fairly (and I've had other attorneys bleed me with no action taken). This is her profession, but she also has comp...

Mr. Jim Taylor
This is one of the most hard working dedicated professionals I have ever met. I would highly recommend her for any type of family law.
"There are scores of attorney who practice family law, Michelle Cheney lives it. Michelle's zeal, professionalism, and encyclopedic knowledge of the family code makes her one of the best family attorneys I've ever litigated against. The highest compliment I can pay Michelle is that I refer cases to her with the utmost confidence."
"Michelle is an excellent and hard working family law attorney. She is diligent in her pursuit of her clients' interests, and she possesses the knowledge and experience to assure that her clients' interests are zealously represented."
"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"
"If you want an attorney who will stop at nothing to see that you get everything the law will allow and has experience working with attorneys and judges around North Texas, look no further than Ms. Cheney. When it comes to family law she is the one you want in your corner!"
"I endorse this lawyer. She is a great advocate for her clients and is always prepared and professional."
"I endorse this lawyer. I have worked with Michelle as opposing counsel and as a mediator. She is professional, hard working, ethical, competent and a pleasure to work with. She zealously represents her clients without Rambo tactics. Her personal trials and tribulations have only served to strengthen an already strong and convicted person!!"
"I endorse this lawyer. Michelle is highly ethical and knowledgeable. She strongly advocates for her clients without losing her professionalism. Hardworking and smart."
"I can confidently endorse Michelle based upon her strength of character, ability to overcome adversity, and her unfailing faith. Michelle is well suited to compassionately handle any family law matter."
"I've been in a two year long battle with Michelle as my opposing counsel. She's personable (even friendly), professional, and willing to extend reasonable courtesies, while remaining perfectly willing and able to cut my legs out from underneath me in the courtroom if needed. She's one of those lawyers that I would want call on before my spouse did, if I were in need of a divorce lawyer."
"Ms. Cheney is fantastic at resolving problems and is very compassionate with her clients. FIVE STARS!"
"I endorse this lawyer. Michelle Cheney is an experienced family law attorney who works diligently for her clients. She is one of the rare attorneys who genuinely cares for her clients and is passionate about her work."
"Michelle is an excellent lawyer and an even better person. She says what she means and means what she says. Her tenacity and knowledge of the law is unmatched. This also makes her an extremely effective mediator. I wouldn't hesitate to refer a family law matter or mediation to Michelle."
