CEO

Sarah is beyond a great attorney. Sarah took a personal interest in my case as well as my well being. I was extremely happy with the o outcome of my case, as Sarah kept me informed on my options and how to proceed. I’d highly recommend Sarah for any criminal case.

Highly recommend Sarah!!

I hired Sarah (along with other family members) for an application for commutation for a close family member. We all worked together as a team with Sarah and I personally worked very closely with her, as we all did, on the application. Sarah was incredibly awesome to work with! She is extremely intel...ligent and savvy and she also had an innate ability to recognize the special nuances that made our family member's case unique, and she was able to highlight those nuances in a respectful and dignified manner for the application, which was successful!! Speaking on behalf of our family we are all so grateful that we were able to work with Sarah and it has meant so much to all of us who were closely involved in the process that the application was successful!! I highly recommend Sarah, as I know she will treat every case that she takes on with the same caring and personalized attention that she gave to the commutation application for our family member.

Great service

Sarah is a very good attorney. I hired her through The McCready Law firm to help me with my felony case out of Orange County. She explained everything very well, made me feel comfortable and did her homework on my case to get me the best possible deal. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking ...a criminal attorney.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I had the pleasure of working with Ms. Garrick as co-counsel on a mixed federal/military prosecution. She was an absolute professional, and a relentless negotiator. Ultimately, she led the way and helped get to a very favorable outcome for our client. I’d be happy to work with her again, and I have ever confidence that she will be a ferocious advocate for any client."

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.
