Very nice and understanding, professional and hard working. Love the energy and how concern she is. Very respectful. Would highly recommend hiring Cynthia again!

Cynthia Sherwood was a great advocate. Her experience reassured me as she explained each step of the process and advocated for truth and justice. I received very thorough guidance. Cynthia was highly professional, respectful, kind and logical. She de-escalated my fears and frustration while representing and seeking the truth. I would highly recommend Cynthia as she does great work and thinks creatively to get a resolution that is fair and acceptable.

Cynthia Sherwood was referred to me by another attorney and once I met her I fully understood why? She is everything you want and more in someone you want to be in your side fighting for what is right. Ms Sherwood is fearless. Her office was organized and kept me up to date on everything.

If you are in need to hire a law firm, you owe it to yourself to read this entire statement. When you feel that you are writing a review of a family member instead of a law firm, you realize that you found a needle in a hay stack , something truly unique. The firm’s and Cynthia’s reputation as the best in Nashville and years of experience speaks loudly of their qualifications which, if anything, are humbly understated. I went through a stressful, very emotional and difficult period of over a year with tumultuous up and downs and Cynthia, and later Davis, were always there supporting, cajoling and advising at a level that sometime even family members are unable to reach. Life, conflicts or even sometime the legal system, can go against you when you least expect it and then is when you need true experts. As a professional executive business coach, I know what personalized attention should be, but the level of support I received was exceptional. The amount of legal work during and after hours including weekends, e mails, texts, phone calls and meetings practically guaranteed winning my (our?) case. Cynthia many times understood what I felt better than I did and was there throughout this whole period with such empathy that made me realize I had someone that cared always available and attentive . A Super Lawyer! Just being greeted by Brook at the front door makes me comfortable, knowing she represents the rest of the team, a firm with a superb leadership, a culture of values and a flexible holistic approach aligned to the client’s needs. When Cynthia was not available for a period of time, I was very nervous but Davis Griffin stepped in with such enthusiasm and hard work that I couldn’t be more satisfied with his performance. I was awarded my Order of Protection against a person that kept stating he always got off because of his money, but there is faith and trust to counter that. When this firm gets involved, the only drive on their mind is winning and justice. The thickness of the folder Davis brought to court got him a snide remark from the opposite lawyer.He found out why it was so thick later when we did win. Cov 19 or not, leaving the court, I wanted to hug all of them. I found real friends. 5 stars plus, plus, plus. I would recommend Sherwood Boutique Litigation to anyone in need.

This was my first legal experience, and as you can imagine I was filled with anxiety. I met Cynthia within two hours of reaching out to her team regarding my situation, which was an unexpected meeting as others seem to require days in advance to set something up, even a preliminary. Cynthia laid out a plan, listened to my concerns, and told me exactly what would happen within thirty minutes of meeting her, and she more than fulfilled her word. I was due in court on two charges related to a situation two years ago. I thought I was in for a longer legal battle, however Cynthia never wavered, and continuously reminded me that she would take care of everything. Well, she did. The case was retired, and in a few short months we will complete the expungement process. The entire court process took no longer than an hour from start to finish. The plan she laid out within an hour of meeting her for the first time, held true nearly five months later! Brooke was a joy to deal with as well, as she was always happy to fill in and answer any questions I might have. Overall, I could not be more pleased with the performance of the entire team at Sherwood, and I truly feel as if connecting with them was a blessing. I could not thank them enough for the work they’ve done. They have a lifelong referral, and my only advice to anyone seeking legal counsel would be to contact Cynthia Sherwood and then get out of her teams way. They will take care of your situation!

I am extremely satisfied with the way that Sherwood Boutique Litigation handled my case. The entire team was very professional. My first meeting with Cynthia Sherwood went incredibly well. She went out of her way to make me feel comfortable through the entire process. I felt that she had my best interest at heart. I left the meeting feeling confident that I would be satisfied with the outcome of the case. In the courtroom, Cynthia handled herself like a veteran. Her years of experience were quite evident. After two days in court, we won my case and I couldn’t have been any happier. Hiring an attorney was an unexpected expense for me, but having the support of a competent legal team is worth the money spent. If you’re looking for a competent legal team that can get you the results you need, Sherwood Boutique Litigation is the way to go.

Cynthia Sherwood was retained to handle an order of protection case that was based on false allegations. Cynthia was incredibly thorough in investigating the truth, preparing evidence, and guiding us through every legal step required. The outcome of her efforts resulted in the case being dismissed. I have zero doubt that the positive outcome of this case was due to her diligence and expertise. If you need a Criminal Defense Attorney, look no further than Cynthia Sherwood!

Cynthia Sherwood saved my life. Cynthia is as good of a lawyer as you’ll see on any episode of Law & Order, How to Get Away with Murder, or any TV show. She is sharp, witty, comical, relentless, relational, and pays exceptional attention to detail. 2 months before I was set to graduate from college, I was falsely accused of sexually assaulting an acquaintance of mine. At first the false claims against me were only used to get me thrown out of my fraternity, which was hurtful but not 1000% destructive. Just after the sham fraternity hearing ended, I was informed by the Title IX office that I was under investigation for sexual assault. They told me that if I was found guilty, I could be suspended or expelled from my university, and potentially not be awarded the college degree I worked 4 years for. I was absolutely devastated. My mom and I knew nothing about Nashville defense attorneys, so I went on Google, found 7 different attorneys, and sent them pleading emails asking for guidance. Cynthia told me not to speak to anyone and told me to come to her office the very next day for a free consultation. When I got to her office, I was instantly comfortable. Cynthia’s office manager, Brooke, treated me with such kindness, instantly calming me. Cynthia met with me, asked for the whole story, and took a chance on me. Boy, am I glad. Over the next few months, Cynthia and her team spent countless hours helping me formulate my responses to Title IX, attended my meetings with me, talked to my family and school for me, and worked tirelessly to prove my innocence. Cynthia’s top paralegal, Jaimee, sharply inserted powerful suggestions and made sure that our work was flawless in both content and form. Davis, another lawyer on Cynthia’s team, thought outside the box and came up with a hugely important idea that turned the tide of the investigation 30 minutes before our biggest meeting. We walked into that meeting with over 80 pages of evidence in my defense, compared to about 15 for my accuser. Every angle was covered, and that is a credit to the entire team. One of the best parts about Sherwood Boutique Litigation is that you get the support of their small, yet fiercely feisty team. Cynthia cares about her clients to her core. Sometimes in a lawyer this would be seen as a weakness, but with Cynthia it is her greatest strength. She went the extra mile for me countless times and made sure that my mental wellbeing was taken care of in addition to my case. Cynthia’s communication skills are almost otherworldly. She has the ability to be tough on someone and make them crack under pressure, but she also has the ability to sweetly cajole someone into telling the truth while making them feel so comfortable they don’t know what they just revealed. Most importantly, she has the tact to know when to employ each strategy. Cynthia can truly do it all. She persuades with emotional appeals, establishes credibility in a variety of ways, and builds her cases using mounds of evidence. She’s the furthest thing from a one trick pony! Cynthia Sherwood is my advocate, my lawyer, and my friend. She cares about me as a human being and gave her entire heart, mind, and soul to my case. When I was found innocent, I screamed and cried with such joy, thanking God that He led me to Cynthia Sherwood. She saved my life, and if you make the decision to hire her when you’re in a jam, she just might save yours too.
