A Lawyer you can count on!

Attorney Slaton is an excellent lawyer! She is easy to talk to. She makes you comfortable in expressing your concerns. She explains things in a way her client understands. There is no question too big or too small to ask. Her integrity combined with her knowledge of the law makes her a perfect c...hoice for me. I really appreciate her and she has never failed me! I never felt like I had to make decisions alone. I feel safe and confident with her by my side to lead. I love it that she is always reachable. That is important to me. Thank you Attorney Slaton for helping me through some of the most difficult times of my life.

An Exceptional Attorney

In my experience, Sandra Slaton is legally wise, strategic and forward thinking. She is calm, resolute under pressure and brings tremendous experience as a trial lawyer. After a 2 1/2 year divorce vs an aggravating opposing counsel, I was extremely happy with her work. I would definitely retain ...her for future work & highly recommend her Laura, AZ

Highest Rated Attorney

Sandra Slaton is the greatest attorney that I have ever encountered. I proudly worked as a paralegal for twelve and one-half years for the senior partner at one of the largest and most prestigious international law firms. I thought that the attorney that I worked for was incredible, and that no on...e would ever compare to that attorney, until I encountered Sandra Slaton. I never thought that I would find myself in a position that I would need to hire an attorney to represent me, let alone, one in the fight of my life. Along the way, I retained a few attorney’s that were less than desirable, unresponsive, and clearly uninterested in representing me. They were solely driven by the fees that they received from me and never performed. Sandra is exceptional! She is knowledgeable; determined; forthright; and genuine. She demonstrates integrity and commitment to her clients. She quickly and earnestly responds to each item that I throw at her. She is extremely communicative and direct. She is ethical beyond measure and represents the legal community unparallelly amongst her peers. Sandra is in fact, the most professional; intelligent; and protective representative. I recommend Sandra Slaton to every single person that I know, and most particularly, to those that I encounter that need legal counsel. Thank you, Sandra, for you are my savior!

Look no further...

I have had the pleasure of knowing Sandy and her office parteners for little over 2 years. She represented me in my HIGH conflict divorce which also included very hard custody battle. Sandy does not and believe me when I say does not take NO for an answer. She is a Pittbull. She knows the law backwar...d and frontwards and then some. Extremely professional. Unfraid to stand up for her clients to anyone. Sandy was not just my attorney but my friend, she is extremely compassionate, was accessible 24/7 and I mean that responding to my emails at 11pm when I had an incident that required her attention...not a lot of attorneys do that. Sandy and her entire staff work around the clock for their clients. I don’t just highly recommend her but I extremely recommend her. My ex was highly manipulative, tried to smear me anywhich way. I won and have sole custody amongs other things. However I am firm believer, you get what you pay for. Had it not been for Sandy and her team I truly don’t think I would be here and in the winning position. Sandy helped me stand up when I was beyond afraid to stand up for my self. Thank you Sandy and everyone in your office. I owe you everything !!!
