Exceptional lawyer

It's extremely rare in today's world to meet a person who does things out of the goodness of their heart and because it's the right thing to do. Sally is such a person. She gave me excellent advice. She spoke with me at length, knowing I was too far away to be a client. She never even mentioned a con...sult fee. She's a rare gem and anyone that is lucky enough to hire her should know they are in very good ethical compassionate hands.

Treasure Trove of Relevant Information

Atty. Bergman helped me promptly and perfectly helping me to identify specific problems needing resolution. She proved to be a true gold mine and I trust her expertise and integrity unconditionally. Atty. Bergman also gave me a referral for an attorney in my area, which I appreciate. I'd have hire...d Atty. Bergman in a flash if she practiced in my area. I recommend her highly.

Excellent Experience with Sally

I was fortunate to find Sally Bergman through Avvo. I had an unfortunate situation with the settling of my Mother's trust. Sally was very responsive, knowledgeable and tactful, and provided excellent direction and advice. Fortunately the situation was resolved quickly and I did not need further servi...ces, but should the need arise again, I would not hesitate to contact Sally, and would unreservedly recommend her.
