David Woolf, VP, InFocus, Portland, OR

No offense to all you other attorneys out there but Cheryl is a rare find in the legal community. She's a good attorney (you know, sort of annoying because she's always talking about risk this and risk that) but more importantly she actually has good business sense! Imagine that? She's also tough ...enough to make sure we get what's best for InFocus but always remembers relationships are long term...so don't push too hard.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • 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.
