About Sharon
Biography
For many years, I represented clients in all areas of family law. Although I loved my clients and the work, I came to see the advantage of having more client involvement in reaching their own decisions. I also came to see the value of being able to focus on the clients' children through interactive discussion with parents. So in 2019, I focused my practice on mediation and collaborative law. With this approach, I have found that helping couples work through issues to arrive at solutions with their individual needs in mind results in a much higher level of satisfaction for clients and their children.

Divorce Client
Ms. Sayers was honest, supportive, and realistic about my divorce outcome. She provided professional and humanistic counsel. I feel confident that my final agreement was the best result possible. This was helpful with my moving past this difficult time and approach the future with a clear heart.
Sharon Kelly Sayers's Lawyer Endorsements
"Sharon has always been known as a zealous advocate in the area of family law. Her recent transition to applying mediation and collaborative law skills to this area of the law is natural and well suited for her, as she is very aware of the pitfalls clients can experience in litigation. I would not hesitate to refer any client to her who may be interested in a non-court based resolution. I highly endorse this lawyer."
