About Courtney
Courtney Cherry built her academic foundation at Lehigh University, where she earned a B.A. in International Relations and Earth & Environmental Science in 2007. She moved to Texas for law school and received her J.D. from the University of Houston—Main Campus in 2012. While at Houston, she gained practical courtroom exposure as a student lawyer in the university’s immigration clinic, representing clients in immigration matters under supervision.
After completing law school, Cherry established her practice in Texas. She is active in professional circles that intersect with her work. She holds membership in the American Immigration Lawyers Association and the Fort Bend County Bar Association. Those affiliations reflect the communities of practice she engages with and the continuing legal education she pursues.
Her early clinic work informs much of her casework. Cherry handles immigration matters alongside family law cases, a combination that often requires attention to changing federal rules and local family procedures. She has experience guiding clients through hearings and filings that touch both immigration status and domestic relations. Her training at the University of Houston clinic gave her direct experience in client interviews, drafting pleadings, and court appearances on immigration issues.
Colleagues describe her as thorough in case preparation and steady in court, preferring clear legal analysis over flashy rhetoric. She maintains a practical approach to case strategy, focusing on the legal steps that move a file forward. In professional settings, she contributes to local bar discussions and participates in continuing education offered through state and national associations.
Cherry’s work takes place in Texas, where federal immigration rules overlap with state family law procedures. That intersection shapes the types of matters she sees most often. She is familiar with the procedural and evidentiary requirements that arise when immigration questions accompany divorce, custody or support disputes.
Today she serves as an immigration and family law lawyer at Springer Law Office. Her day-to-day work includes advising clients, preparing filings, and representing people in court and administrative proceedings. She focuses on immigration and family law at Springer Law Office.
