Best Decision!

Sara was there to answer our questions and walk us step by step through a tough custody and adoption situation. She has a wonderfully knowledgeable, helpful staff who are always happy to answer questions. Sara was always with us in court, gave excellent advice on what to be concerned about and what... not to. When I need an attorney, I will call Sara again.

Child custody

Paid 2500 retainer fee and she done nothing but changed the court day. Never talked to her once in almost 6 months. Ended up charging 900.00 and dropping my case. I would not recommend her. I hope no one else has to go thru what I did. I havme a great lawyer now .

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
