Personal Injury

I was involved in a car accident and was injured. Not only was Sarah instrumental in obtaining a fair settlement within a timely manner, she was very kind and caring. Sarah always made me feel safe throughout the whole process as this was quite the ordeal for me. This situation was especially sens...itive as I am Canadian and live 2 ½ hours away in Ontario. Sarah never let the distance or the fact that I am a Canadian be an issue with resolving this case in a positive manner. I would highly recommend Sarah as she is very professional and knowledgeable in the industry and truly does care about her clients.

Best Decision

I was fortunate to have Sarah represent me on my Personal Injury Claim. She worked tirelessly on every detail and kept me well informed every step of the way. Sarah is the epitome of justice. During my darkest times she showed me compassion. It's not what someone says that you remember, it's how the...y made you feel and with that being said I not only had good representation... I had and still have a friend.

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.
