I will hire Sarah Spencer again

I hired Sarah to do some collections for me, and was very satisfied with the results.

Posted by Frank | June 11, 2012 | Contracts & Agreements

Client

Sarah was a pleasure to work with. Her knowledge of contract law and court procedures was perfect for our needs. Every question posed to Sarah received an instant confident response. Sarah obtained a pre judgement writ of attachment in one week. Her guidance toward resolution with an 'out of coun...try' client kept us out of the court room and collected our six digit funds in under five weeks.

Commercial real estate lawyer | May 04

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I've had the opportunity with working with Sarah in a variety of different contexts: community and legal organizations, legal matters, and personally. Few attorneys I have come across care for their clients as much as she does. She has a great personality and is fun to work with. I recommend her highly. She exudes comprehension and confidence when it comes to complex matters. She has an innate understanding of the litigation process and how to use it to her advantage. You are definitely going to get more than you bargained for when you retain Ms. Spencer."

"Sarah is a tremendous lawyer. I enjoy working with her because she is highly intelligent, energetic, extremely competent, and driven to produce the best result for her clients. I can trust Sarah with any case. Her range of legal skills is comprehensive--interviewing clients, framing the case, investigation, research, writing, discovery, motions, oral advocacy, trial and appeal; her abilities throughout many areas of the law are impressive. I never hesitate to recommend Sarah and her legal team."

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"My law firm and I endorse Sarah. I have had many opportunities to partner with Sarah on the Wills for Heroes program (a pro-bono project of the Utah State Bar.) Sarah is a leader and organizer committed to delivering the best in service to the participants of that program and I surmise the same for her clients, friends and family. It remains my pleasure to call Sarah a fellow lawyer, colleague and friend."

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
