Caring, knowledgeable and honest

Having an extremely difficult case when all should have been simple, Sandra was very honest with me the entire time. She made sure to keep me informed and give me all possible options before proceeding. She took her time explaining all aspects of my case and put herself in my shoes when giving me opt...ions for proceeding with my case. My case took many unnecessary turns due to opposing counsel, and Sandra was able to navigate through all of them, in stride. Sandra knows the laws and was able to propose reasonable offers to close my case and when the opposition was stuck with what the judge would do they ultimately had to give in to our very reasonable settlement without going to trial. Sandra did everything possible to keep from going to trial when it was not necessary and ultimately closed my case with a win for our side (and saving me a lot of money). Sandra is very open and honest when it came to handling ever aspect of my case. She also responds very quickly and kept me in the loop anytime she had communication with opposing counsel. I hope my friends to not need her, but she will always be in my contacts in case anyone needs her services.

An Attorney who puts YOU first

Ms. Nutt was very helpful and clearly stated how she could help me. She dealt with the other parties and kept me up-to-date on a daily basis the status of my case. She was knowledgeable and made the whole situation less stressful. I would not hesitate in hiring her again. I have recommended her to... family and friends.

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.
