Faith Restored by great solid work ethic and a great mind

Mrs. Sevcech came ready to fight for me in court. She understood my case and she understood the environment in which we were going to be enduring. She restored my faith in family law attorneys, in that she sought to fully understand my case circumstances in alimony and then worked on preparing me ...for my case. I spent two years going through a divorce and my previous attorney did none of the things she helped me work through. She was completely impressive and shot straight with me. She found my weaknesses and worked with me to make me stronger in the eyes of the court and case. On the day of court, and as a true professional, Ms. Sevcech went to work and between her and the Judge handled the hearing as fair and caring practitioners of the law. She has restored my faith and willingness to work with attorneys should the need ever arise. She has set the bar and continues to rise above it. Thank you ma'am. - Peter Nunn

Defacs appointed attorney

It's extremely hard for me to put into words the amount Sarah has actually helped me. I found out that I had a daughter in February of 2021 and through Defacs, Sarah was blessed upon me, and was able to close my case in November 2022. She did an amazing job and was able to obtain joint custody/legit...ization for me. However, in April 2023 my daughter was placed into foster care, due to domestic violence incidents at the maternal home. I immediately freaked out and contacted Sarah right away! This absolute angel of a woman has helped me to gain full custody of my daughter, get my daughter out of a really bad domestic violence situation, and help me to make sure my daughter will have the best life ever! She did all of this out of the kindness of her heart and I honestly don't know where my daughter would be right now if it wasn't for her!

AMAZING ATTORNEY!!

I received child support papers from my ex husband... I was referred to Sarah by someone that had used her. Sarah first spoke with me over the phone for nearly 30 minutes listening to my situation and telling me my options. I knew immediately I was going to retain her and told her to send me an invoi...ce so we could get started. Sarah is always accessible and available. I could text, email or call her! She did an amazing job with my case and we had a great outcome! I’d highly recommend her to anyone and I’d most definitely use her again if the need ever arises. She’s not only a terrific attorney but a great person all around!

Superb Family Attorney

Sarah has been a blessing to my family. From day one, she fought for us. Our situation was very sensitive and from the beginning she always listened, was very respectful, and always gave me hope. Her spirit is kind and thoughtful but her defense of our family was fierce and diligent. She continually ...kept in communication with me and I never felt like I was bothering her. Any situation that arose, she was quick to respond with options to move forward. You could not ask for better and I could not imagine the outcome if we did not have Sarah on our side. I am overwhelmingly thankful for her help and would recommend her to anyone.

Relationship: Supervised lawyer

"Sarah works hard for her Clients. She fights at every turn and never gives up. I watched her trip up an investigator on the stand and get them to admit her client was innocent. Sarah is one of the most talented and bright young Attorneys I have ever met - she is definitely someone you want by your side."

Criminal defense lawyer | Aug 14

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"Sarah is one of the best young lawyers in Georgia. I have witnessed her achieve dismissals on cases where other lawyers would have given up. Recently, she saved an innocent medical student's career by getting seven separate warrants dismissed prior to the client getting arrested. This is a complicated process. Lesser lawyers would have not worked on the case until the defendant turned in on the warrant. Instead of waiting, Sarah sprang into action and got the warrants dismissed immediately. Her soon-to-be medical doctor will never have to explain that she was wrongfully arrested."
