The Scales of Justice is not always balanced, and Cheryl has witnessed many forms of injustice in a system supposedly designed to protect the innocent. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Injustice Anywhere is a threat to Justice Everywhere.” Witnessing injustice firsthand struck a burning desire within Cheryl to obtain her law degree so that she might be that voice to fight for the rights of the oppressed.

Cheryl’s unwavering desire to fight for justice led her to the famous Johnnie Cochran law firm where she did her internship. Upon graduation, Cheryl was hired by the Cochran Firm-St. Louis as a Law Clerk. For almost three years Cheryl offered her expertise in proper police procedures cases. During that period Cheryl made many successful arguments in those cases on behalf of the clients.
