I am a licensed attorney with an office in downtown Blue Ridge, that focuses primarily on family and civil litigation. I graduated from The Citadel Military College of South Carolina and obtained my law degree from Atlanta’s John Marshall Law School. I have worked in the legal field for many years and understand that the litigation process can be scary, emotional, and stressful for clients because of the unknown of what may happen.

Amazing is an Understatement!
My husband and I came to Sarah for a modification of custody. Sarah went above and beyond to make sure everything was done in the best interest of our child. She always made us feel like a priority and maintained open communication in regards to updates on our case. Without a doubt we would hire Sarah again for any future needs our family has.

Services
I consulted with Sarah in regards to issues taking place with my oldest daughter, after speaking to her I knew I wanted to obtain her as an attorney. Throughout my whole case she was up front and honest with how we needed to proceed and I walked out of my hearing pleased with the outcome. I would highly recommend her and would definitely use her again.

One of the best!
Sarah did an outstanding job as my divorce attorney. She stayed in contact with me through the whole process, and pushed the other attorney to do her job as well. She has also helped with other issues since the divorce, and is always on top of anything I take to her.

The Best Attorney
Sarah goes above and beyond for her clients. She is compassionate and cares for her clients and gives them the best advice on how to go about the situation they are dealing with. She keeps it as stress free as possible and informs you of any updates that come to her over your case.

She’s fantastic
Sarah is awesome, treated me like a human! I had little money to spend on an attorney but that didn’t matter to her! She treated me with dignity and respect and I feel like she worked as hard for me as if I had had a million dollars to spend!
