Sarah Ann Cavassa

If you are considering divorce, in the midst of a divorce, or post-divorce with questions about pursuing new issues, I highly recommend hiring Sarah Cavassa. I began working with Sarah in 2012, when she was an associate at a law firm in Salinas. Even then, with just a handful of years of experienc...e in family law, she was quickly impressive. I recall in our first meeting her warmth, focus and attention, organization, knowledge, and drive to see the whole picture and understand my goals so she could prepare to help me meet them. I knew before leaving the office that morning that Sarah was the attorney I wanted to hire, and I felt confident that I would be in excellent hands. My divorce was wrapped up within one year and, through Sarah’s wisdom, sensitivity, skill, and creative problem-solving, she helped craft a marital settlement agreement, support payments, and custody arrangements that were beyond my greatest wish. Since then, I have consulted with her multiple times about support modifications and other areas of concern for my kids and, this month, we gained another win without the time and expense of going to court. Sarah is a smart, sensible, highly conscientious professional with integrity who is dedicated to serving her clients the best possible outcomes. She also has the know-how and abilities to achieve them—most notably through her deep understanding of family law, keen analytical thinking, polished negotiation skills, and the solid working relationships she has built through time and trust with other attorneys in the area. Another benefit to working with Sarah is that she will present you with options and explore as much or as little as you want while keeping in mind your financial limitations. Sarah’s expertise gave me peace of mind while her kind and genuine heart helped me feel seen and cared for. Her sense of humor was a welcome bonus that provided a refreshing break from navigating the heavy challenges. Time and again, Sarah exceeded my hopes and expectations. I highly recommend her without reservation.

She was wise to every overwhelming detail and gave rational options and explanations to keep my emotions in check and keep things moving.
