Sara Elizabeth Goodrum

I ended up being the every other weekend dad when I was divorced a few years ago. Joint custody was not favored then and I did not have the work hours to allow me to properly make drop off and pick ups for my child's school schedule. Years later, my hours at work are more flexible and I was remarri...ed. Asked the EX for more time with my child and was refused. Called 4 lawyers. 2 said I didn't have a case, 1 said it was 300 dollars for a consult, the 4th one (Sara) said she thought she could help me. She filed for modification of custody, requesting joint custody. We ended up settling in mediation. While I did not get a joint custody title I did end up with a schedule that gave me more time with my kid, Almost 50% of the month spent with me, and no child support. In the end I got what I wanted, which was more shared time. For that I give Sara 5 stars. PRO: - Free consult - Took a case when everyone else said I didn't have a chance - Easy to communicate with - Reasonable rates. I was very pleased, if not surprised, by the end cost. MUCH lower than I had anticipated CON: - If I have to give a negative, it would be that some times she is a hard person to get a hold of. But with that said, when you go to her office and chat, just watch how much her phone blows up. She's a very busy person.

Sara has been amazing through what has been the worst time in my life. Supportive, straight forward, honest, and caring. She fights for her clients with grace and integrity, while still using the law to get the most for her clients. Before Sara I had no one standing up for me, threatened by my soo...n-to-be ex and lied about by his lawyer. With Sara in my corner things have turned around and I really feel I will survive this ordeal.
