Sara has outstanding legal skills in addition to compassion and understanding of her clients needs. She definitely goes the extra mile!! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her for probate and family law.

We were given Sara's info by referral from another attorney (because he did not specialize in this area of practice). I have thanked him many times. We desperately needed a good estate attorney because the one we originally had was awful. Sara spent more time with us and gave us more information in her free consult than we got from our previous lawyer over several weeks. We hired her and have been grateful ever since. She guided us through the entire process when my father-in-law died, and it was very complicated due to a very poorly written trust (done by the lawyer we fired) and multiple other errors the fired attorney made. She was always available for consultation and we really felt that she was proactive and watching out for his estate and the family. She went above and beyond many times. I cannot say enough good things. We are hiring her to re-do our estate plan as well. I would recommend her to anyone.

My case was complicated and sensitive with a recent loss. Sara handled my case with compassion, thoroughness, and an interest in empowering me. In addition, Sara has excellent listening and communication skills; Sara is a rare attorney.

Sara worked with us in regards to a series of cases involving parenting time, obtaining rights to travel with my son and to move him out-of-state. Prior to working with Sara, the cases between my son's father and myself had been handled in a contentious manner, often feeling that previous attorneys were seeking to escalate the conflict. When working with Sara, the dynamic shifted considerably with her thoughtful and knowledgeable guidance. Sara was focused on maintaining the best outcomes for my son and doing so in as smoothly and peaceful a process as possible. Sara truly kept my son's best interests in mind and worked with both parties in a respectful, calm but assertive manner, ultimately gaining the rapport and cooperation of my son's father which had not been accomplished with previous attorneys. For the first time in many years, we were able to have a calm and even-tempered conversation about our goals. Sara sought to solve as many issues with amicable agreement rather than in the courtroom as possible. Sara was readily available to consult about questions that arose and always provided very knowledgeable responses that helped put me at ease during what would have been a highly tumultuous time. Because of Sara's calm and knowledgeable approach, she was able to ultimately reach agreement between my son's father and myself, which resulted in the best outcomes for everyone involved but especially my son, which I had for many years thought was unobtainable. After the conclusion of our case and out-of-state move, Sara was conscientious in following up with us and offering support from afar with my husband's adoption of my son, a goal that we had never thought possible and was done with my son's father's support. Sara counseled us on this transition as well, providing ideas for maintaining my son's relationship with his father specified to his personality and our distance. I am so thrilled we had the opportunity to work with Sara and attribute these wonderful outcomes for our family to all of the time, work and efforts she put forth in supporting us. Sara's effectiveness is evident in our positive outcomes, her extensive knowledge, and how she personally approached our case in a highly sensitive and conscientious manner, and I highly recommend her to anyone seeking legal assistance or advice.

Sara handles our estate planning. It would be fair to say that my husband and I were initially very reluctant clients. Thinking through matters such as who will raise your children if you're unable to, how to allot your estate, who will advocate for you if your spouse is unable to --- all of these are thorny, tough- to- resolve questions that we had been dodging for years. Sara's empathic ear and wise counsel helped us make concrete decisions that we were both comfortable with. That was 20 years ago and we still rely on Sara to handle our estate and other matters as they arise. A good attorney needs many skills -- thorough knowledge of the law and how best to apply it to your situation, willingness to listen, build trust and forge a strong client/attorney relationship and of course, serve as a strong advocate. Sara has demonstrated all of these skill again and again. We recommend her without reservation.

Sara Zivian Zwickl is a knowledgeable attorney who is able to look at a myriad of perspectives on a single issue and give good solid advice to clients so they make informed decisions. In our case, we were in the process of reviewing our will and how we would approach giving our son money in case one or both of us were no longer alive. Our decision was based on Ms. Zwickl's ability to create several interesting options, keeping what is in our family's best interest at the heart of our final decision.

Sara Zivian Zwickl handled my divorce. She was very compassionate and guided me through a very emotional legal process.
