Sarah T. McEahern

On September of 2020 I was in a horrible motorcycle accident that resulted in serious bodily injury. I hired Sarah McEahern to represent me through this process. I wish I had the vocabulary to express how incredible she was on my case and as a person. My case was not a simple case, it involved the F...ederal Government due to the person who caused my accident was a Federal Employee. Sarah was relentless in perusing my case to make sure I was able to get everything I deserved. Sarah treated me with the utmost respect, care and compassion, not only towards my case but towards me as a person. When I was confused or didn't understand some part of my case she took the time and care to explain everything to me in a manner that I could understand, always leaving me with confidence and a state of calm. Her professionalism is un matched. Whenever the opposition would try and slow down my case, or try and throw some curve ball Sarah was never fazed by it and instead would directly confront whatever issue they brought up and put it to rest quickly and firmly. Sarah is a no nonsense Attorney that will represent you fearlessly and honestly. She always let me know what my alternatives where and never made me feel like I was forced into any decision. I always felt in control of my case and her words to me always where "This is YOUR one case". Sarah is an exceptional attorney. My case was Federal but it didn't start out that way. It started as a standard (my term) personal injury case and a short time into my case we found out that it had to be transferred/changed over to a Federal Torts' branch case. Sarah didn't blink an eye or miss a step changing gears from one arena to another. I truthfully feel like an Angel sent Sarah to my corner to fight for me and win my case! Without Sarah representing me I don't know what would of happened and how things would of turned out. I would recommend her to anyone needing help with a Personal Injury claim.

Sarah was my main contact at Zaner Harden Law. She and I interacted frequently on the case, as it progressed from trying to work towards a settlement to filing for litigation. Sarah was indispensable in so many ways, from helping relieve anxiety before deposition, to supporting me through intense cry...ing jags as traumatic events were relived, to making sure all documents were filed correctly, and understanding the intricacies of my case. I never felt overwhelmed when she was in my corner. I always felt she was listening, understanding, and cared about everything related to my case, almost as if it were the only case she had, when I knew she had more. When I had a question (and I had many), she always took the time to clearly answer every one of them in a thoughtful manner. She is smart, articulate, caring, and she was always available when I wanted to talk or text. I would not hesitate to use her again, and I would highly recommend her.

After being hit in a crosswalk by an inattentive driver while riding my bicycle to work in 2017, I was left with a shattered right knee. After spending the next two and one half years in and out of the hospital for eight surgeries and months and months of physical therapy, the driver’s insurance comp...any was offering numbers that can only be described as ludicrous. In December of 2019, we were at a standstill. Then there was covid19. Trial dates were set, then rescheduled and rescheduled again then canceled. At this point it was looking like years until a conclusion. Kurt and Sarah, my attorneys, were able to get the insurance company to a reasonable settlement number. It was not what we had hoped for, but it was reasonable and way above what they were originally offering. If we could have had our day in court, I and Zaner Harden Law are sure we could have done much much better, and I would have really liked to see Kurt in front of a jury! Sarah, Kurt and the Zaner Harden team were sympathetic, professional, thorough and fierce advocates for my case. I would and do recommend them to friends and loved ones without hesitation. I could not have had a better team to represent me. Sincerely, Jim Taylor
