Fantastic negotiator

We believed that our apartment complex was in breach of contract, so we hired Sarah to help us out. Sarah encouraged us to take pictures of the hazards, save emails and maintenance requests, and get any agreements with our complex signed and dated. She spoke to us about the likely outcomes of differe...nt situations. For example, although we had grounds for not paying our move out fee, Sarah told us that going to court would be a long, expensive process and judges don't typically rule in the tenant's favor. Instead, she called and met twice with the property manager and got us out of $1000 in fees. She used the evidence she asked from us and didn't go in too aggressively, which helped us maintain good terms with management during our move out. Sarah is fantastic at communication, very knowledgable, tactful, and great at negotiation. Would recommend!

Great lawyer and person

Sarah is a hard-working and warm-hearted person and very knowledgeable in Immigration law. She responds to requests and questions quickly with thorough explanations throughout the whole consultation, provides very helpful information. She also goes above beyond her expertise of Immigration law, g...ives us as much support and advices as possible in other areas, such as Landlord and Tenant dispute. She’s a very reliable person and a lawyer that you can put your trust in.

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.
