Sharon is the best!

Sharon Hemphill is the most amazing woman! She is so sweet, passionate and helpful! Sharon helped my partner go through his little journey, was fighting custody for his girls and now he has them in his life! Sharon is a very supportive woman. Sharon also was understanding and just in all, amazing to ...work with! I’m so glad we hired her and got our blessings living with us! Thank you so much Sharon! We can’t thank you enough!

Fierce, Integrity, Perseverance, Unmatched Dedication

A Fierce Advocate with Integrity, Perseverance, and an Unmatched Dedication to Justice Sharon Hemphill is not just an attorney—she is a force of nature in the courtroom. Her integrity is unwavering, her perseverance unmatched, and her passion for justice undeniable. She treats every case like a co...mplex puzzle, meticulously working through every detail until she finds the winning strategy. Her ability to think several steps ahead makes her a formidable opponent and an invaluable ally. Sharon works with such intensity and dedication that, at times, I found her hard to track down—but that’s because she was always deep in the trenches, fighting relentlessly for my case. She is always ready for trial, armed with an impeccable strategy and a fierce determination to win. With her, you either win outright or achieve gradual, undeniable victories until success is inevitable. I’ll admit, there were moments when I wondered if enough was being done, but the results spoke for themselves. Any doubts I had were simply misperceptions fueled by my own anxiety—because when the results started coming in, they were undeniable. Sharon doesn’t just win cases; she secures complete justice for her clients. If you need an attorney who will fight furiously and ferociously for you, who thrives under pressure, and who treats your case as if it were the most important one in the world—because to her, it is—then look no further than Sharon Hemphill. She is the kind of lawyer you want in your corner, and the kind of advocate who changes lives.

An ANGEL sent AND that is just an understatement!

I can't express how thrilled I am with Sharon's services! I was desperate for help with my custody case—my ex had completely alienated me from our two girls, and every lawyer I called before Sharon either charged for a useless consultation or scheduled me weeks out with no real interest in my case. ... Then I called Sharon. From the start, she dove right into understanding my situation, asking detailed questions that no one else had even thought of. During our one-hour phone call (with no guarantee I'd hire her), she showed a level of dedication that blew my mind. We even decided to meet at Olive Garden that same evening, and she drove 45 minutes past her office hours just to accommodate my late working hours. Here's the kicker: I told her I couldn't hire her until my finances were sorted in a few days. Despite that, Sharon pulled an all-nighter, filed my divorce papers the very next morning, and kept me updated with emails and texts—all on her own dime! UNREAL! I've dealt with many lawyers in my time, but Sharon is, hands down, the best. She's not just an incredible lawyer—she's an amazing person inside and out. Her genuine concern and that "X" factor set her apart in a profession that rarely shows such rare characteristics. If you pass up on her, you're making a huge mistake. My standard for legal representation is now sky-high because of her. Her 35 years of experience definitely shine through, but it's her humility, integrity, and above all, her empathy that make her truly exceptional. Sharon is an absolute gem. An ANGEL sent. THANK YOU SHARON

Trustworthy, Experienced, Knowledgeable and great to work with.

Sharon Hemphill, is a better than great attorney. Her many years of experience and knowledge are extremely relevant from the moment you meet her. She is patient, yet direct and professional. She exceeds any expectations set upon an attorney, including trustworthiness. There is hardly anything both in... court and out of court that she has not seen, or dealt with. She represented me in a rather dramatic custody case and never missed a beat with the variety of situations that arose. I will without a doubt suggest her to anyone seeking strong, straight-forward, and dependable counsel.

Outstanding Lawyer with Integrity

I am going through a complicated custody battle and Ms. Hemphill was able to review my case files and in a matter of a few days formulate a game plan and followed up all the way to the finish line. I ended up getting custody and prior court orders corrected. I am very thankful that I found Ms. Hemphi...ll , she has a lot of skills most lawyers dont have; Ms. Hemphill cares about her clients and I can tell she is a great person.
