"Cheryl and her staff were courteous and professional and helped me with a difficult situation of invoking a trust where I was listed as the trustee. I had no idea how to even get started and they walked me through the steps and expediated the process due to the circumstances."

"Michelle Walsh is an exceptional lawyer whose expertise in landlord and tenant issues is second to none. From our first meeting, her knowledge and professionalism stood out. Michelle is not only incredibly thorough in her work but also exhibits remarkable patience. I remember being overwhelmed with all the legal jargon, and she took the time to explain everything in clear, understandable terms—turning what felt like a foreign language into a friendly conversation. One of the things I appreciate most about Michelle is her trustworthiness. You can tell she genuinely cares about her clients and their well-being. There was this one time she shared a light-hearted anecdote about a case and offered me god intention landlord advice which not only showcased her vast experience but also her great sense of humor. It was a refreshing reminder that you’re dealing with a person who’s both highly competent and relatable. If you’re in need of legal advice, especially regarding landlord and tenant matters, I highly recommend Michelle Walsh. She’s been an invaluable resource for me, blending professionalism with a personal touch that’s rare to find."

"Cheryl is an outstanding attorney. After meeting with her for the first time, we knew we had the right attorney to take our case. After my mother passed, we discovered that her husband had filed a Quit Claim and moved the home into his name and into his trust. When he passed a month later, he pass...ed the home to his brother. I was contacted by his attorney who wanted to get the house sold ASAP. We were able to delay the process until we found Cheryl who started the communication with the other attorney. Cheryl was amazing. She took control of the situation and handled the other attorney with strength. Cheryl knew the law and interpreted the trust according to the letter of the law. In the end, we won the case and the home is to be put back in the original trust. Cheryl and her staff, Taylor, Robin and Maggie are just outstanding. I can’t say enough about them. If the need arises, I would not hesitate to use Cheryl again and I would certainly recommend her to anyone that is looking for and exceptional estate attorney."

"After dealing with a handful of attorneys regarding a probate case, I was blessed with Cheryl Walsh. She wrapped up everything so swiftly. Getting a referral for an attorney with this specialty was not easy. After suffering the loss off two family members, the last thing I wanted to deal with was court. Ms. Walsh handled it all and no one could have done any better. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone."

"Mrs. Walsh was amazing throughout my whole home buying process. She is extremely kind, responsive, patient and understanding. As a first time homebuyer, I had a lot of questions and she was very patient with me. She’s very knowledgeable and I trusted her completely before and during my closing. I highly recommend Mrs. Walsh."
