An Attorney You Can Trust

Sara took a genuine and supportive stance with myself and my situation. She worked diligently to understand the facts of my case and provided me with sound legal advice, answering any questions I had about family law, overall strategy, and how best to proceed through the legal process to protect my c...hildren and I. Having been disappointed with a different lawyer at another firm who started my case, I was so relieved to switch to Sara Sweeney, an attorney I can truly trust. Thank you, Sara, for all your hard work, empathy, and professionalism!

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
