Made the process EASY!

When I first came to Sara McFalls office I was exhausted and frustrated with a QDRO that was being dragged out by another lawyer that was representing me, FOR FOUR YEARS. The moment Ms. McFall started listening to my situation I felt understood and in the right hands. Her team and her have always b...een quick to answer questions and emailed me updates often and my legal woos were handled and tied up nicely and quickly for me. I would HIGHLY recommend Sara W. McFall!

Highly Recommend

Sara McFall is an amazing lawyer. She explains everything in detail and makes you feel comfortable. She has the best interest for her clients and I felt protected when it came to my case. Her staff is always easy to reach and can get you answers in a timely manner. Victoria and Candace were very kind... and helpful throughout my entire case! I would definitely recommend Sara McFall for any legal needs you might need.

Excellent

Sara and her team were just plain amazing! For someone going through a custody battle the process can be terrifying. Because of Sara it all seemed like a breeze. Her prices, the way you can count on a time reply to any and all questions were top notch. I highly recommend her with anything you might n...eed.

Life is Good Again~!

Going through ANY kind of divorce is a life changing, unsettling, major event in a person's life. Every single day is a new challenge. When I knew divorce was inevitable, I asked everyone I knew about a good attorney. None were quite right until I googled and found Sara McFall. Sara and her extra...ordinary legal assistants, Victoria & Candace were absolutely the very best~! They never let me down always answering my questions, calming my fears and always listening to what I had to say. In essence, with efficiency, grace, and vast experience they all guided me to my new life~! You cannot go wrong choosing Sara and her team~! They are human beings that will treat you with integrity and respect while expertly handling a very difficult process with aplomb~! I can't thank Sara, Candace and Victoria enough~!!!

Hardworking and "caring" lawyer!

I recommend Sara because she was very professional yet compassionate to my divorce case. I found her after much research and having been through two previous attorneys who did not work out. I selected her based on the high ratings she received on Avvo and her many years of experience as a family/div...orce lawyer. After our first consultation meeting I liked that you are just not a number to her, she’s very personable, listens intently to your concerns and truly cares about you, her client. Sara rolled with my quirks and helped me understand what transpired through the whole divorce process. She was always prompt with replies, and was never at a loss of words when I needed an explanation...she knows how to effectively & calmly communicate to stressed out parents - which is a plus in my book. Sara was the first person to sit down with me and tell me exactly what the law required and gave me a realistic indication of how things would play out in court. We were not always in total agreement about the best path forward, but that is likely because of our perspectives. I was emotionally charged and angry about all the things that happened which put me in this position. Sara sympathized, but wasted no time in directing me toward what the legal realities were, which sometimes unfortunately, is not what we want to hear because we have a different vision in our head for how things should be …but we really need to hear the truth of the matter in order to proceed swiftly forward in a difficult divorce case (like mine was) towards settlement. I also liked that she cultivates a staff centered around trust who are always willing to go above and beyond with consistent service delivery. Sara and her team will try to do the very best for you. (Sara - Thank You so very much for your counsel and experience!) I highly recommend her and her wonderful hardworking staff.

  • 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.
