Jennifer Janelle Sherwood

This lady is AWESOME! From the very start, she was attentive and gave excellent advice. She walked me through what to expect and how to handle each step of the process. Even between court dates, when situations came up and I sent her updates—sometimes upset—she kept me grounded and focused on our goa...ls for court. Each day we were in court, I was amazed at how she took all the information I shared and presented it clearly and powerfully to the judge and GAL. Our family is in a much happier place because of Jennifer Sherwood.

I had spent some time looking for a good child custody lawyer. It really didn’t take much for me to decide to go with Jen Anderson after reviewing her page. From start to finish the process was so quick and smooth. She answered every single question I had about getting full legal and physical custody... of my children. She did an outstanding job representing me in my case and she truly cares about her clients. I never once felt left in the dark about anything that was going on with my case. I cannot express enough how grateful and pleased with having her as my lawyer. I highly recommend her!

Jen took me on as a client March 2023, at the time I lost visitation with my children and could only see them in a supervised setting because my ex as telling everyone I was abusive, the GAL hated me (hated me so much the children reported that he screamed at them in his office telling my 7 year old ...to shut up when she tried telling him that the stuff her mom says wasn't true, and I was a good dad), the children's therapists were telling the court I was bad (but the therapists failed to mention that they allowed mother to sit in on every therapy session with the kids and bad mouth me). It was an absolute dumpster fire of a custody case that had been going on since 2019, and she still took it on. As of Feb 2025, I now have primary custody of my children, so in a little under two years I went from having 2 hours of supervised visitation twice a month, to primary custody - absolutely a miracle worker.

She was personable and passionate about my case and because of her I have shared custody and shared legal rights of my child, when the mother of my child didn't want me to have any...Now my daughter will have a chance to have her father, fully in her life, will growing up, something that me and he...r mother never had growing up..I am so gratefully and bless to have met and hired a great lawyer of her caliber, I can not thank her enough...so I also work just as hard on my child support case...I am so appreciative for her..I very highly recommend her

In the state of Virginia, grandparents have no rights to their grandchildren. My husband and I had been in our grandson's life from the moment we found out our daughter was pregnant. In the summer of 2022, he was completely snatched out of our lives. Jen agreed to represent us. We went to court w...ith nothing and came out supervising visitation. Fast forward to one month ago. We went to court and came out with a court ordered one week visitation over the summer with our grandson. Jen was there with us all the way. Whenever we tried to reach out to her, and we didn't get an immediate response we automatically knew she was busy. We also knew we would hear from her as soon as she got a free moment. She's not just there for you from 9-5. She's always there for you.
