Super support on remote closing

I closed on my home of 41 years in an out of town closing with a mobile notary. I was originally expecting a zoom closing but it did not happen and I was left by myself with a notary who was not fully familiar with closing documents. Thanks to Sara and her staff who reviewed the closing document...s in advance I was not completely lost. In the end all worked out well.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I have worked with Sara on dozens of legal matters over a period of years. She is a fantastic litigator and easily the best real estate attorney I have ever worked with or against. Sara is also a powerful negotiator who is always able to see 3 steps ahead of her opponent to ensure the best possible outcomes for her clients. On top of that all, Sara is a great person, who really cares about her clients, colleagues, and community. If anyone asks me to recommend a Michigan lawyer, Sara is my first choice."

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.
