BAM!

Went thru another lawyer that couldnt get their Sh*t together, and a friend refered me to Cyndi. She IMMEDIATELY jumped on my problem, and waisted NO time getting down. A great personality as well. I will not hesitate to refer her or use her again. *LOVE*

Above and Beyond!!

Cynthia Sherwood was an absolute pleasure to work with from beginning to end. She was there to help us not only with the legal aspect of our situation, but also with the emotional side. We were in a situation that we had never imagined ourselves in, and we were nervous and felt hopeless. She went abo...ve and beyond what I expected any lawyer would do, and really took the extra time to take care of us as well as our case. If I (we) should ever need representation again I would not hesitate to pick up the phone and call her immediately. I will also be referring her to all my friends and family! Very happy clients!!

A Brilliant Legal Mind

Cynthia Sherwood is the best argument for hiring a brilliant lawyer you could ever find. I was charged with one count of assault and one count of resisting arrest. Although I was guilty of the assault charge, the resisting arrest charge was disputed. The DA was determined to go for a full conviction ...on both counts but he underestimated Cynthia's intelligence and homework. Thanks to her preparation for the trial the charge of resisting arrest was dismissed, much to the surprise and chagrin of the prosecutor. She was calm and professional in court and wielded facts as weapons. In preparation of the trial she was open, honest and responsive to all of my questions. I had full confidence in her after our initial meeting and her results proved to me that hiring her was the best decision I have ever made.
