The Best!!! Sari is a fierce advocate, highly experienced, Great negotiator!

Sari was recommended to me after my case stalled with another firm. She immediately investigated my case and understood thoroughly what was going on, what my positions were and what I needed. She and her team were adept at understanding the nuances and facts of my case and have fought fiercely and t...irelessly to already settle a difficult custody case on my behalf. Not only does Sari know the law inside out, she will also explain it to you as it relates to your case to help you make the right decisions, she does not waste time, and she is in it to win for you. I highly recommend Sari to you if you are looking for the best of the best!

Relationship: Co-worker

"I endorse this lawyer. Many years ago, when I was a young lawyer, I had a case with with Sari that involved a contested custody litigation. As an adversary, I found her to be a tenacious advocate for her client, while exhibiting the highest level of professionalism and ethical behavior. Now that I work for her many years later, my admiration and respect for her legal acumen and trial skills have only increased. No one will work harder to meet the goals of their client, while assisting the client in being mindful of the practicality of those goals and how they fit that client's life plan."

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
