An Attorney with a Real Heart

If you are looking for a family attorney that really cares then look no further than Amy Sauter and her staff. I was looking for any attorney to help me with a child custody dispute. Amy came recommended to me by a friend. She was my 5th attorney and accomplished so much more than all of them put tog...ether. Her and her team of workers are knowledgeable, friendly, hardworking, and they will treat you like family, your problem will become their problem. They will work 110% to make sure you get what you deserve or what you are fighting for. She will bring to the table her many of years of experience to work for you. She is a little expensive, but remember you get what you pay for. I am so glad that I chose Amy, I just wish that I found her sooner and maybe I could have actually saved money in the long run, not to mention all the stress and headaches too! Together we accomplished what my other attorneys could not do, and what others said would never happen! Put your faith in Amy like I did and you will be so glad that you did.

Great Attorney!

Amy was helpful, knowledgeable and always there to answer questions. She kept my best interest in mind and worked with the adversary very well. She was well spoken in court and was sensitive to my issues. I would highly recommend her.

Top Attorney in her field.

I hired Amy Sauter to represent me in my divorce & the custody of my two young children. This was a complicated and long case. Amy and her staff did a fantastic job. I have recommended her to several family & friends. Amy still represents me whenever I have legal issues. She saved my family.

A very good advocate. Strongly recommended.....

Amy Sauter was recommended to me by a friend, and it could not have worked out better. She is very knowledgeable, got back to me very quickly when I had any questions, and was very easy to communicate with. She has been professional and looked after my best interests. Working with her has been a smoo...th process. Her staff in the office were also very nice to deal with. I would certainly recommend her services. I am sincerely thankful someone recommended her to me.

Highly recommended attorney!

I was referred to Amy Sauter by at least three people in the Bergen County area. She came highly recommended as a divorce attorney. I went to see her for my consultation and she assured me that she would help me get what I wanted in a cost efficient way. Although my husband and his attorney had no in...tention of giving me anything I asked for, Amy fought for me and helped me settle my case quickly and fairly. I am very happy with my settlement thanks to my attorney! I highly recommend Amy Sauter.

Family lawyer | Oct 13

Relationship: Opposing Counsel on matter

"I endorse this lawyer. I have just finished a case with Amy. She is knowlegeable and practical. She advocated for her client and also advised him what the law was and allowed him to make his own decisions where he was willing to be more generous to my client and pushed back where he was not. We finished the entire divorce quickly and amicably as the parties wanted it done. The paperwork was prepared and exchanged promptly and both of our clients were satisfied with the process."
