About Sarah

I am an estate planning and probate attorney, and am particularly passionate about making my services as easy and convenient as possible.  In addition to being able to visit my office, clients can now have consultations via video conference.  I also meet elderly or ill clients at their homes or at the hospital. Helping clients through difficult times or helping them to plan around issues is the most rewarding part of my practice. 

After graduating from the University Of Tennessee College Of Law, I practiced law in Northern Virginia.  Although I loved my time there, I was thrilled to move back to the South because it’s home. 

I’m active in the Atlanta University of Tennessee System Board, Georgia Association for Women Lawyers, Atlanta Bar, Phi Alpha Delta's Atlanta Alumni Chapter, Georgia Chapter of the National Academy of Elder Law Attorneys, and Brookhaven Chamber of Commerce.

 

Off the clock, I enjoy cracking open a good book; snuggling with my dog, Spenser; attending local craft beer festivals; and challenging my husband, Walt, to a board game.

Review Sarah Siedentopf

Excellent Professional

Posted by

I hired Sarah to assist on a personal injury case, for which I am the attorney, that required the establishment of an estate. She quickly handled the required work, performed excellent quality work, and was pleasant to work with. I would not hesitate to recommend her to others and work with her again.
