Reviews

Our family turned for answers to our SSI and SSDI questions to Terry LaPorte. He was quick to hear and understand the complexities of our situation, and because his deep experience with these agencies he was able to provide us with the help we needed to make some immediate decisions. Really appreciated the free consultation. We will return to this agency when our situation is right.

I had the pleasure of working with Cheri E. Michaelis and her team at the Law Office of Cheri E. Michaelis to set up our family trust. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and stress-free, thanks to Cheri's professionalism and friendly demeanor. Cheri took the time to listen to our unique needs and answered all of our questions with patience and clarity. She provided us with expert guidance and advice, and made sure that we understood every step of the process. Her attention to detail and thoroughness were impressive, and we felt confident in her expertise throughout the entire process. The team at the Law Office of Cheri E. Michaelis is professional, knowledgeable, and responsive. They were always available to answer our questions and address any concerns we had. We truly appreciate the excellent service we received from Cheri and her team, and we would highly recommend their services to anyone in need of legal advice or assistance. Overall, we had a fantastic experience working with Cheri E. Michaelis and her team, and we are grateful for the peace of mind that comes with knowing our family trust is set up properly. Thank you, Cheri, for your excellent service and professionalism!

I was so surprised that my H1B approval notice came in 15 days! I didn't do premium processing at all and there is no RFE for my case for sure. Michael explained my case very carefully. He is very patient. I can not get approval without his professional help! Highly recommend!

I consider each one of the team like family members! Terry LaPorte, Kelsey LaPorte and team stood by me every day through out my journey. Any time of day or any questions and concerns you may have they are ready to help you. It's been a pleasure working with them and I will carry nice memories forever.

Laporte Law Firm help me gain a Fully Favorable out come with my case. They kept me informed and explained everything every step of the way. I will recommend Laporte Law Firm to everyone that needs a social security disability lawyer.

My wife and I were very happy with the level of service we received, as well as the professionalism, knowledge and friendliness of everyone we met at Cheri's office. Cheri was very generous with her time when we initially went in to learn about trusts, an area we had zero prior knowledge in. We recenly had a very positive experience amending our trust with YooBin, thank you!

This review is long overdue as I initially had my estate planning done with Cheri's office back in late 2019. Mariana walked me through every step of the way. She was helpful, professional, and very pleasant. I used my MetLife plan through work for the living trust. I recently came in to get assistance with a Trust Certificate for a refinance. YooBin helped me with that. She was also super helpful and fun to chat with though the transaction was quick. I decided to have Cheri's office look over my paperwork despite MetLife not covering this visit. The price was reasonable. Both times, Rianna helped me out with answering questions and letting me know the costs. She too was nice, helpful, and responsive.

Everyone (Cheri, YooBin, Rianna, Thanada, and Monica) at Cheri's law offices was excellent. Every one of my queries and my wife's queries was answered promptly - even on weekends! We had an initial consultation (virtual because of COVID) where we explained what we wanted in the living trust. We then scheduled an in-person meeting to sign the documents. We went through MetLife and so we were only billed for the services that weren't covered by our insurance plan. The entire experience was painless. The in-person meeting with YooBin took about an hour - primarily because of the number of documents that needed to be signed!

We had a very seamless process working with Cheri Michaelis firm to form our trust. They were always available to walk over any questions, knowledgeable and extremely easy to work with. Ms. YooBin Kim was particularly efficient and patient in helping us sign our papers. Highly recommend them for creating your trust.

We amended our Trust with Cheri. Her office was great to work with. They are very friendly and easy to communicate with. They did a great job and I highly recommend them.

I'm very impressed by Cheri, YooBin, Rianna and other team members. They are very responsive, patient and kind, always promptly communicate and follow up on the status and TODOs along the whole process. Especially at the final wrap up session, YooBin put together a list of documents very organized in both paper and electronic copies. I found it's so easy and user friendly to search for things even 6 months after!

The Cheri E. Michaelis law practice team is world class. From the moment I began my engagement with them, I knew I was in great hands. They helped me create my Estate plan/Trust without any hiccups. To kick things off, I met 1:1 with Cheri and she walked me through the entire process, breaking it down, demystifying things, empathizing with my concerns, and being extremely clear about setting expectations with re: to milestones, fees, options, and timelines. Her team kept in touch with me throughout the entire process, keeping me apprised of where things were at and what was needed from me. All in all, the entire process felt very low-maintenance for me: in other words, I barely had to do anything - they took care of the rest. I'm also extremely grateful that they made themselves available to answer questions and follow up on issues even after I went through the final signing step. And they did all of this with kindness, professionalism, empathy, and sound expertise. I highly recommend Cheri, her team, and their legal services. Will definitely use them again if the need arises!! Thank you, Cheri & your AWESOME team!
