I've been in a divorce dispute with a very difficult spouse for one and a half years. Cheryl has given me her unending support and advice throughout this time. She has encouraged me to be strong and firm with respect to an equitable settlement, and she knows how to push forward through the muck and mire of a very challenging divorce. Her knowledge, unique sense of humor, compassion, and tenacity, is undaunted. She sees the torn lives of two people, and acts on the overall situation. She simply tells it like it is. So many times I just wanted to cave in and settle for so much less, and Cheryl has been that voice of reason and sanity, encouraging me to remain steadfast. She has continued to blend empathy with right action, and has fought for my rights with a firm, fair and "no nonsense" demeanor. She sees things as they are and has never backed away from tough issues. Cheryl Slater continues to act on my behalf, and I trust her judgement and guidance implicitly. Without reservation, I recommend her to become your legal champion, for that is what she does so well. With her expertise of the law and understanding of how the legal system functions, she has continued to carve out a legal path for me. In her relentless pursuit of justice, she has been willing to go that extra mile, and in my case it's been a marathon!
