Sarah Elizabeth Potter

I can't recommend Sarah highly enough. Going into my hearing, I was nervous and overwhelmed, but her calm, confident presence put me at ease almost immediately. It was clear she had taken the time to truly understand every detail of my case. She didn't just know the facts, she understood the issues b...ehind them, which made all the difference when it came time to advocate for me. In the hearing itself, she was outstanding. She had a natural, easy command of the room. She anticipated challenges before they came up and responded with clarity and poise under pressure. Thanks to her skill and dedication, we won. I'm incredibly grateful to have had her in my corner, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone who needs a litigator who is sharp, composed, and truly excellent at what she does.

I was initially sad that my incredible attorney at Hawkes Quam wasn't going to be available on the date of my hearing, but I trusted her judgement and knew I'd be in good hands when she had her associate take my case. That is how I met Sarah Potter. Sarah turned out to be absolutely perfect for t...he situation. She was prepared with a solid grasp of the details of my case, she knows the law, and her confidence and demeanor instilled a peace of mind in me that things would work out the way we expected at the hearing.  Sarah handled the whole process with a calm professionalism, despite the petitioner's last second shifts in direction. Her preparation of me as the respondent kept my anxiety at bay which made the whole experience easier for me. She kept me apprised about how the process works, what would happen, and what I needed to do (and not do!). Her presentation before the commissioner was clear and concise, and she made the day go smoothly. She was mindful of my concerns, anticipated needs, and attended to every detail. I expected to prevail, but didn't expect such a BIG win. I am absolutely thrilled with the outcome. I'm very grateful that she was the attorney representing me, and could not more ardently recommend Sarah Potter or any of the lawyers at Hawkes Quam to anyone in need of a family law attorney. They work miracles, and they do so with integrity, operating within the bounds of the law. They're a law firm you can feel confident with, knowing you're in exceptional hands with a team of phenomenal people working together for your legal needs.
