Cheryl A. McCray began her pursuit toward becoming an attorney after she graduated summa cum laude from Marshall University in Huntington, West Virginia. She earned her juris doctor degree from Duquesne University in Pittsburgh in 1984 and was admitted to the West Virginia Bar shortly after. Cheryl then gained entrance into the Ohio Bar in 1985 and the Florida Bar in 2002.

Since 1984, Cheryl has focused her efforts on Family Law and Criminal Defense. She started her career representing Family Law and Personal Injury clients at various law firms. She then opened her own practice and handled a majority of Family Law Cases. With over 26 years of experience, there is no doubt that Cheryl is a respected and knowledgeable attorney. Her experience extends beyond that of an attorney, as she was appointed as a Family Law Magistrate for four consecutive years.

Cheryl is proud to offer clients the advantage of a former prosecutor’s perspective. She held a criminal prosecutor position in both West Virginia and Ohio. She also served as an Assistant State Attorney for the Seventh Judicial Circuit in St. Johns, Florida for eight years.

Over the years, the skill Cheryl has gained is undeniable. She is well-versed in trials and negotiations for clients of all backgrounds, including Family Law, Personal Injury, and Criminal Defense. Furthermore, Cheryl successfully completed a 40-hour mediation training program which is an asset to her Family Law clients.
