Best

Cynthia and her firm save my life. They are really professional in domestic violence and immigration. I trust her 100%. Just take 10 days my domestic violence charge has been dismissed and ordered for expungement. She is also very professional in immigration, all my record is going to be expunged and... will never affect my visa and immigration status. She has a very strong connection with the judge, D. A., and prosecutors, people on the court talked to her with great respect, this make things much easier to handle. First choice!

Top Notch Defense

You need this law firm on your side! Miss Sherwood provided me an absolute topnotch legal representation. I reached out to her on a domestic matter which included a temporary order of protection falsely obtained against me that kept me away from my child. She took charge of the situation from the ver...y first meeting, followed the facts of the case, and was very empathetic and understanding. The order was dismissed after the first hearing, dismissal was appealed and Miss Sherwood successfully defended me again, the appeal was dismissed. Brooke and Jaime were amazing and very personable as well. I am happy with their work and I highly recommend this law firm for your legal needs.

Super Human With Superhuman Powers

She saved my life! ...a few times. Once as an adult. 3 or 4 times as a juvenile & all dismissed or expunged! I know my juvy record was clear because when I joined the military, I had an extensive background check for top security clearance and they came up with nada. All juvy charges were minor ones ...mostly related to drinking underage and fake IDs. BUT for the adult incident, I honestly thought my life was done and over with. Consequences were BAD...really bad. I was guilty AND they had the evidence to prove it. I really considered fleeing the country...If I didn't have Cynthia, I probably would have. But I did have her and she went about defending me with methodical precision. One domino after the next. And slowly but surely my options looked better and better. It took a looong time but at the end of the day she hit home. No supervised probation, no jail time, no snitching, no fines, no anything. All I had to do was not get arrested for few years and it would go away. Well it's been a few years now and I'm 100% free and clear. My only consequences were the horrific anxiety I experienced and the money it took to defend me, which I'd gladly pay again and again and again. I just want to thank Cynthia. Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you so much for all you've done for me! You are a Super Human with superhuman powers. Nobody could have done what you did and I believe that with every fiber of my being. You gave me a second chance at life and I will be forever grateful!

The Best of the Best

Cynyhia Sherwood and the whole firm at Sherwood Boutique Litigation have helped me through the worst times in life, Whether it was business or personal issues . I’ve been with them for so long that they are considered my family and five stars is a understatement. The best in Nashville to get you out... of whatever troubles you have.
