You won't regret it.

This was our first time ever needing legal help and Sarah was simply a god send. She's so kind, so smart and works SO hard for you. She kept us updated with everything and answered all of our questions. There are so many gray areas and things that you don't think about before having to deal with the ...court system, so on top of defending us in court, she taught us along the way and explained what was going on. I can't stress that point enough. Simply put, you won't regret it. She knows the system, she knows the players, and she knows how to get results.

The Attorney to Choose

Sarah is an amazing lawyer. I was in a a tight spot after I received another speeding citation and couldn't do defensive driving. I didn't want to have a ticket on my record because it would increase my insurance rates. A friend referred me to Sarah because of her experience handling speeding citatio...ns. She responded to all my messages within mintues of it being sent. Sarah took the burden off my shoulders and always reassured me that the case was handled. Two weeks later I received a call from her personally that not only was my ticket handled but that it would be off my record. I was speechless, I did not think it was possible for my ticket to be dismissed and off my record so easily. But when speaking with Sarah I quickly realized how knowledgeable she is with the law. I was very lucky to have such a modern lawyer who answered my Facebook messages, text messages and knew how to reassure me. I highly recommend Sarah to anyone because I had nothing but good things happen while working with her.

The attorney to go to

Sarah is wonderful to work with; she takes the time to listen to the issues and gives very solid legal advice. She helped me in my case and I was extremely satisfied with her professionalism, her knowledge of the subject matter and her decision making process.

Very Understanding Attorney

Sarah handled my case with such care and concern. I truly felt she understood my position and took action. She provided me with a clear understanding of my rights and explained everything as my case carried forward. I would recommend her to anyone!

Yikes!

I hired Sara to represent me for a criminal case and soon found out that she had no idea what she was doing. She didnt know the process of posting bond and it was apparent that she didnt have enough experience at the time. Unfortunately it was a horrible experience and I never quite felt comfortable... that she knew what she was doing.

Unfortunately, because I have never received a complaint like this, and since it is anonymous, I will try to respond to the best of my ability regarding this review. My staff and I have reviewed for whom I have posted bond recently, and we are unable to ascertain from that list who is unhappy. We're sorry you had a bad experience with our firm. This matter does not sound familiar, and we strive for the utmost client satisfaction in every case. Please contact me directly to discuss your specific concerns. If any of my clients are unhappy, I do my very best to make sure that their wishes are met. If you like, I am wholeheartedly willing to discuss this in further detail, including any potential refund that may be applicable. I hope you take me up on that offer. My email is [email protected] and my telephone number is 512.872.6845.
