Horrible Experience with Her...Run!!

If you want someone who will treat you horribly while charging you thousands and then leave you to figure things out on your own, then hire this person. One of the rudest people I have every been in contact with. You can call for a case update, but get ready to be talked down to and yelled at, while... she threatens to withdraw. I should have let her because my settlement was horrible. She got completely destroyed by one of the worst lawyers in town, to my detriment. I would not use her again if she was the last attorney on earth.

The Best

I agree with all the 5 star reviews above. She was a referral to me after I had worked with an attorney who just wasn't capable of handling the complications of my divorce. You must be okay with not being "babied" by her. She is not your counselor, she is your attorney. She will do her job. Let her d...o it and you won't be disappointed. She is respected by everyone we came across in the process -other attorneys, GALs, and judges. She shoots you straight, knows her stuff and charges a fair price. So thankful that I chose her!

Sensational! Look no further

My husband and I retained Sara for child support modification. A very easy, uncomplicated case quickly turned difficult due to the Ex’s refusal to cooperate, Sara got the job done. Not only did we get the child support reduction we were entitled to, we also got a credit awarded by the judge for o...verpayment. She was absolutely hands down the best! Do yourself a favor and retain her to fight your battles... you will be glad you did!

Brilliant lawyer

Sara Senesac is the most ethical lawyer I have ever met. She is fair and realistic. Her knowledge base is remarkable and her advice is sound. She will tell you like it is and some may not like that, but I wanted a no nonsense attorney who would fight for me. That is what you you get with her! I c...an not even tell you how much I respect her and the person she is. She is amazing in a world full of not so good lawyers.

Simply the best!!!

I am writing this review because I just finished a case that Sara handled and she was amazing! Her knowledge was incredible and she gets the job done. She is to the point and will tell it like it is. I want to pay someone to fight for me, not to just blow smoke and tell me what I want to hear. Now... Sara is not going to baby you and she is sometimes all business. But hey, I want that! Not to mention she is absolutely BRILLIANT. Search no further if you want to win and it not cost you a fortune!!!
