For over 30 years, Cynthia A. Stewart has been practicing law with the goal of helping clients across the community with their legal needs, particularly as they face serious criminal charges. We understand the toll that a criminal charge or personal injury can take — that’s why we offer aggressive representation to clients in Jackson and across Mississippi. During her career, attorney Stewart has earned a reputation as an aggressive, even fearless, courtroom attorney. She has personally been responsible for the dismissal or acquittal of charges of clients facing the most serious of criminal accusations, from cases involving murder, fraud (medicare and other), drug offenses and civil rights, among others in both state and federal jurisdictions. In personal injury cases, we strive to recover compensation for our clients. We know how devastating an injury can be. We also pride ourselves on representing those injured behind bars, fighting staunchly for the rights of the incarcerated. We take a no-nonsense approach to every case we take. We prioritize educating our clients and then defending their rights as staunchly as possible. A well-respected negotiator and trial attorney, Cynthia Stewart is admitted to practice before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit and the U.S. District Court for the Northern and Southern Districts of Mississippi. Attorney Stewart’s practice and success have been discussed in detail in The Feminine Sixth: Women for the Defense, a nonfiction account of female criminal defense lawyers by Andrea D. Lyon and in Kings Of Tort by Tom Dawson, an account of political and legal wranglings in Mississippi.
