Andrea Sugar has represented me for 10 years on family law. I would recommend Andrea without hesitation - she is the best!

Andrea has represented my case in family law for over 10 years. As with any challenge in life, family law digs into the core of a person and their own position on a situation, which at best can be of the unsolvable kind. That is, we go to family law when family cannot solve its own problems! Andrea i...s so far ahead of the curve to understand and make sense of what seems insurmountable. Andrea is a coach, a friend and a true counselor to the extent of the word. In court, Andrea can win a case and reach a peaceful resolution. I urge all reading that quality of their attorney is key to grasping with what the law can offer as relief. Andrea is able to achieve this transparently and truthfully. I have returned to Andrea for legal work time and time again, and would do so again. I highly recommend her!

Contested Divorce Settlement

I had a very difficult divorce and retained a local attorney. After the divorce, I fired my attorney and hired Andrea Sugar. My ex husband agreed to certain terms in the settlement which he violated by taking things back which were rewarded to me. Andrea is so dedicated, professional and fights for h...er clients! All of the things that occurred after my divorce lead Andrea take legal actions on my behalf. I had been diagnosed with MS and without Andrea, I could not have gotten through everything. 3 years later we went back to court when I discovered my ex did not declare all assets which allowed me to go back to court and reopen my case. another 2 years but I was awarded a corrected settlement. Andrea stuck with the case which was difficult due to discrimating actions by the presiding judge and my ex husband’s attorney. This was in a small outlying county known as “the good old boy network”. Andrea just dug in deeper and we won ! She is a class attorney and never gives up ! I am eternally grateful for her taking on my cases !

Grateful for Andrea’s diligence

It sometimes felt like we were fighting an uphill battle; however, Andrea really took our case to heart and helped us persevere through the obstacles. She was persistent and diligent. She was always looking for ways to help prove our case and it really paid off. When I felt like giving up, she was... a coach that helped us through. She was tough when dealing with the opposing counsel and worked very hard for us. She was always accessible and her staff were always very professional and helpful.
