About the founder
Welcome – I’m Cheryl.
After 18 years of experience as a Legal PA, I launched Cheryl Cohen Virtual Business Support in 2021. With two decades working within the legal sector it’s safe to say I know my way around a legal document and am familiar with legal terminology.
My journey began at 16, when I left school to pursue my ILEX Legal Secretarial Diploma at college. From there, I joined a law firm as a Legal Secretary and went on to spend almost 16 years as a PA at a leading global law firm in London.
However, things change and I decided the London commute was no longer for me, I realised I had the skills and experience to set up my own business as a Virtual Assistant.
Admin is a vital part of running a successful business, but it can also be incredibly time-consuming. That’s where we come in. By outsourcing those tasks to us, you’ll not only gain valuable time back - you’ll also have peace of mind knowing your business admin is in expert hands.
