The Best Adoption Lawyer You Could Ask For

Sara is absolutely AMAZING! She helped my family adopt my uncle’s children after he passed away, handling the entire process with care, compassion, and professionalism. The adoption hearing was nothing but a miracle it only took 7 minutes, and the judge had no questions thanks to her guidance. The be...st part is that I only dealt with Sara through the whole process and not going through multiple people. She was always available when I needed her, and I could talk to her directly every time. Sara truly makes a stressful process smooth and reassuring. I am so grateful for her help and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of an adoption attorney.

Do not hire

This lawyer is inept. Run run run away as fast as you can. She got me jail time, probation, and I had to pay fines on a case which should’ve been dismissed.

This woman is truly one of a kind!

Sara Shulevitz changed my life for the better. By the grace of God and Sara who believed in me during a desperate time of need, I was able to prevent the onset of facing 15 years. She truly changed the trajectory of my life and I cannot imagine what my life would've been like if she didn't defend my ...case. People are not kidding when they say this woman is determined and will do anything to fight for you case! Going to jail was so traumatizing for me due to a variety of reasons but Sara was that light at the end of the tunnel, to say I'm grateful for everything she's done would be an understatement. Thanks to her, I'm able to continue doing what I love, and that's being a children's therapist. She's someone who guides you throughout every step of the way, the same cannot be said for other lawyers in the field who just want your money, she's the real deal! I highly recommend seeking her services, 10/10!

Cannot Be Trusted

I had a miserable experience working with Sara Shulevitz. From beginning to end, her lack of professionalism, indifference, and carelessness were obvious in every interaction. She never took the time to understand my case and left me in the dark throughout the entire process. Her disinterest in achie...ving a good outcome was clear, and I couldn’t be more dissatisfied with the results. Beyond her incompetence, her cold and dismissive attitude made an already difficult time even worse. I strongly warn against hiring Sara Shulevitz if you need capable or compassionate legal representation.

Attorney Sara Shulevitz was a terrible lawyer during my restraining order case. Her lack of professionalism, carelessness, and cold attitude made everything much worse. Instead of guiding me through the process, she left me confused and overwhelmed. She showed no patience or understanding, and she ma...de an already stressful situation far more difficult to handle. I truly resent her lack of dedication and failure to achieve a good outcome. I would strongly warn anyone against hiring Sara if they want a competent or supportive attorney.
