The Best

Cheryl pays specific attention to the needs of her clients in advocating their defense. I ve seen her handle everything from Federal Drug cases to Murders with ease and surgical precision. There is no matter I would not lend her to or seek her advice. If you want a call back, a close understanding of... your case and an attorney who feels like family, this is the person.

Outstanding Criminal Defense Lawyer

I was charged with a misdemeanor assault in 2016. I was referred to Ms Irvin by a friend. When I first met her and told her my story, she was confident that she could handle my case well. She made me feel extremely comfortable each time we discussed my case, reassuring me that it was all going to be ...okay. Cheryl Irvin has a lot of respect in the courtroom. She is a former judge and a very experienced criminal defense lawyer. My case resulted in a dismissal. I am very grateful for her encouragement and expertise along the way. I would highly recommend Ms Irvin.

The Best Lawyer

Cheryl E. Irvin is a good lawyer. I was once facing 5 to 99 years on 3 different felony charges. I went to trial on an aggravated robbery with back in February of 2014. the Judge and everybody was working against her. In the closing arguments she left each the Jurors a reason of a doubt not 1 but 12..., getting me a none guilty verdict.I was supposed to go back to trial the next month in March of 2014 for Engaging in Organize Crime she got that dismissed before my court date and Got me 4 years Deferred Probation on my last case which was assault on a public servant with bodily injury. I thank God he placed this Lawyer in my life. I would strongly recommend her to any one. If she don't take care of business ill pay u back my self. Thank u so much Ms. Irvin To God be the glory..

  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
