Custody Case

Sarah did amazing with my case. She was the second lawyer we hired and she did everything I hoped for. Her and her paralegals were quick to respond in any situation and she went out of her way to get a motion for court going. I wouldn't recommend anyone else in the state of Wyoming when it comes to a... custody case! Sarah was profession, on the ball, and always looking out for mine and my son best interest.

Divorce Decree Appeal

This was a tough case to begin with. Sarah Jacobs-Manwarren was not our first attorney, she handled the appeal process. It was a year and a half long appeal. Every step of the way she was upfront and straight with us on what to expect. We are extremely happy with the outcome of this case. I will... recommend her law firm to anyone that is needing a great family court attorney.

great lawyer with big heart

Sarah was amazing. Very dependable, smart, caring and generous. She helped my daughter through a nasty divorce case and wasn't afraid to act quickly as needed to help her. She amazed me as to how much she knew about everything we asked her. Even after the divorce was final, she and her staff stayed b...y my daughter's side making sure she had all she needed even to the point of helping her move her things out. Sarah and her staff are definitely devoted to their clients' needs and interests. Thank you very much Sarah and staff.

Excellent divorce lawyer!

At the time we hired Sarah I also had a criminal attorney and an attorney to help with my children. Sarah jumped on board and immediately reached out to my other attorneys to make sure that whatever she did in my divorce case wouldn't negatively affect my 2 other cases. Sarah knew when to sit back ...and wait and when to charge forward full speed. No matter when I needed her, she was right there. I knew that Sarah would always have the answer. I trust her fully. Sarah is a bull dog in court and I feel sorry for any lawyer having to go against her! I thanked the Lord alot for sending Sarah my way! In the end, I was granted a divorce and received FULL custody of my children!!! Thank you again Sarah!! I would highly recommend Sarah Jacobs!
