Dropped and Expunged!

Sherwood Boutique Lititgation is the place to go if you need help. From start to finish, they made sure I knew about each step in the process. Cynthia and staff went out of their way to make sure I recieved prompt replies and answers. Two thumbs up! I would 100% use again, but hope I never have too....

Unexpected outcome!

I would like to thank Cynthia for staying on my case and contacting the right people to help my case. I think anyone that has ran into a problem if you want it solved give Cynthia a call. She is going to be up front and honest with you.

Powerhouse Litigator

Sherwood Boutique Litigation (SBL) may hold the title of law firm but it is so much more. I was detained by US customs after returning from a vacation overseas. I had no idea I had a warrant for my arrest for an incident that happened a year prior. As I was in a relationship that consisted of physi...cal and mental abuse, I did not press charges against my abuser. Unbeknownst to me, my abuser filed charges. Due to the seriousness of the matter, I knew that I had to stand up for myself. I needed an advocate, a specialist in cases of this nature, and someone who would be truthful. Diligent research was put into making sure I had a powerhouse attorney. I found Cynthnia Sherwood and across the board she had excellent reviews. Upon meeting the SBL team, I knew without a doubt that I had chosen an incredible law firm. Cynthnia was very personable and easily gained my trust. She did not hesitate to call and kept me in constant communication as to the progress of my case. In court, Cynthnia represented me with absolute skill and professionalism. Her assistance did not just stop in the court room with an unbelievable resolution on my behalf but went on to ensure that I was able to address my mental health issues stemming from the physical abuse. Not only is Cynthnia relatable, reliable, and punctual but a very thorough and competent attorney who kept my best interests in mind. The entire SBL team treated me with dignity and respect from the first phone call to weeks after the case ended. I believe SBL will not only meet, but exceed expectations. SHC

Amazing and seriously about her business.

Cynthia was very knowledgeable about every single law that other officials didn't even know or about or consider and she had all the facts legal an technical locked and loaded and ready to use in the courtroom even though we didn't even had to. Would hire her again for any case

I hired an attorney but gained much more!

I was referred to Cynthia Sherwood to handle my order of protection case. When I first walked in her office, I met her assistant Jamie who went above and beyond to make our visit comfortable. The office is very warm and welcoming. When Cynthia came into the conference room to meet me for the first ti...me, I was blown away by her professionalism and personality. We had SEVERAL meetings before my court date and each time Cynthia blew me away with her knowledge of my case and her friendly demeanor. She sat down with me for hours to discuss my case. It felt as though I was the only case that mattered. Cynthia Sherwood is one heck of an attorney. She was so professional in court and she is one that fought for me! I cannot brag on her enough. I hired an attorney but I gained a friend. I would recommend Cynthia to anyone! She will stand by your side and be on your side. I couldn't have asked for better representation!!
