Strong advisor for a new Non-Profit

We hired Sarah to assist us on several different occasions from formalizing our organization to helping with a trademark and assisting with a legal issue. Sarah was a consummate professional. She provided timely and high quality support to our organization. We will utilize her expertise in the future... when the need is necessary. I would highly recommend her!

I had the pleasure of working with Sarah Gold on a business matter. She was remarkably knowledgeable and extremely thorough in every detail pertaining to research and correspondence to the other party involved. She was truly an advocate for me and I always felt comfortable knowing she was watching ...out for my best interest. I highly recommend her to anyone needing legal assistance. She is a rare combination of caring, knowledge and talent.

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.
