Cheryl helped me with a military divorce issue.
Simply the best representation anyone could ask for. I had a case that stood very little chance of winning. But Cheryl went beyond the extra mile to do research in my field of expertise so that she was better equipped to defend my case from multiple legal aspects. Cheryl's dedication and thoroughness is the only reason we were able to settle in my favor. Thank you for everything.
Amazing and trust worthy lawyer. I really appreciate Ms. Van Ackeren's time and thoughtfulness.

Cheryl was very professional and helpful in addressing my issue. With her help, my matter was resolved within two weeks. She responded quickly to communications, which was important as the matter was time sensitive. Her fees were reasonable and were well-worth it to have this matter solved. I would recommend her to others looking to address matters within her areas of practice.

Cheryl and her team do amazing work. The team truly cares about the client and the outcome of the case. When you invest in this law firm, they invest in you. The most enlightening thing about this firm is their straight-forward approach to the situation. They will give sound legal advice, while teaching you why at the same time. Thank you for all you have done for my family and I!!

They have a $100 consultation fee that is not divulged upfront. When I arrived, I was informed of the fee. I explained that I was not told about this upfront. I then apologized and took responsibility for assuming it was free and not asking myself. There was no acknowledgment, apology, or responsibility taken on their end. It was just a very cold, "Well this is how it is" response. It is not about the money, although there are many firms out there who offer free consultations, it was their inability to handle the conflict in fair, honest, and compassionate manner that really turned me off. I was very disappointed in the way I was treated by this firm. I would not recommend them.

What started out as the need for a "simple" Parenting plan, quickly turned into a nasty custody battle. Mrs. Van Ackeren was there every step of the way to help me get through one of the most stressful times in my life. She kept me in the loop of what was going on, advised me on what the positive and negative outcomes would be on any of the decisions i made and quickly answered any questions i had. When i first reached out for Mrs. Van Ackeren's help, I hadn't been able to see my two sons for months. Within a few weeks I had them 3 weekends a month. After 6 months, they were both living with me!! I couldn't be happier with the way things have turned out. I would definitely recommend her services (and have) to anyone. I know that if anything else comes up, Mrs. Van Ackeren will be there to help me and my family again.
