Excellent services!

I had the privilege of being represented by Sarah, an exceptionally honest and straightforward attorney. I had previously been dealing with another lawyer on my case, but I grew weary of receiving vague responses and never hearing back from him. Frustrated, I made the decision to switch attorneys, ...and Sarah proved to be the complete opposite of my prior experience. She conducted herself with utmost professionalism, effectively communicated with me, and explained the entire legal process in simple terms. Taking over my case, she achieved in a matter of days what my previous attorney hadn't accomplished in months. I am genuinely delighted with the service she provided and wholeheartedly recommend her. Efficiency and professionalism perfectly capture the essence of my experience with Sarah.

The Best Advocate You Can Ask For

I hired Sarah to represent me in a prenup negotiation that I had a lot of apprehension about entering. She helped me understand the process before getting started, listened to my concerns, built a draft that addressed pain points from both sides and negotiated a final document both parties found agre...eable. She was responsive, understanding, thoughtful, supportive, and diligent every step of the way. She was able to walk me through what I was entitled to and offered clear and concise explanations of everything I couldn't understand. She was always quick to get back to me, patient with my questions and thoughtful in her counsel. While entering with significant reservations, I'm leaving the process both more knowledgeable and extremely confident in the results. If you are in any stage of getting married or getting divorced, you are in the right hands. No one will work harder for you. She is as good as they get.

On top of her game

I needed help with some post-divorce issues. Ms Goldenthal from Callagy Law was so helpful and knowledgeable with all phases of my case. She took time to thoroughly explain everything and was always available to talk. I highly recommend her to anyone in need of a family law attorney.

Best attorney for the worst divorce ever!

I cannot say enough about Sarah Goldenthal. She helped me navigate a divorce that took over a year to complete. She remained professional, personable, and was always available to guide me through every strange and ridiculous turn of events. We were forced to file numerous motions, which were all s...uccessful. She helped recover marital assets dissipated including those from college funds, and used her skill and knowledge to negotiate the best possible outcome for my particular situation. She helped successfully avoid what would have been a long, down out trial. I never imagined that I would need the services of a divorce lawyer, but I'm so happy that I had Ms. Goldenthal to guide me through.

Sarah is beyond exceptional!

Custody, visitation, and child support cases can become incredibly emotional and messy as it was for me. My case was definitely not the easiest as it was literally lost in the system. However, once I met with Sarah I was able to see that things would be just fine. From our first consultation she imm...ediately attempted to contact the court and straighten out the mess that my previous lawyer had made for me. Sarah was able to catch up on my case and move everything along as quickly as possible. Sarah is truly hard working, incredibly dedicated to her work, and proficient at what she does. She was very easy to work with as she was honest and thoroughly explained my legal rights. Sarah made sure that every decision was something I was comfortable with and would benefit my children and I. She is incredibly knowledgeable and gave my case the proper attention that it needed. Although it took a lot of back and forth, I am happy with the court order that was eventually agreed upon. Sarah will really fight for you and seek the best possible solution. I am protected in many ways with what she has written for me in our consent order because she included many details that truly make a difference. Honestly, I cannot see myself with better results or retaining any other lawyer. Sarah really treats your case with passion and never makes you feel as though you're in the dark. I never had a hard time reaching her. Sarah was always responsive in a quick and timely manner. I have already recommended her to a friend who has received phenomenal results from Sarah's work as well. I cannot thank Sarah enough for all the work she has put into my case. It has made things a lot better for my children and I. Sarah is beyond exceptional and you really cannot go wrong with her.
