About Hannah
Biography
As the principal attorney at Sargent Law Offices, I am dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome for my clients. Whether involved in business planning, formation, dissolution, mergers & acquisitions or assisting my clients with their personal estate planning needs, I ensure that I approach each step with thoughtfulness and vigor.
In my past life I was a military officer, company commander, and AH-64D Apache Helicopter pilot. My time in the military taught me patience, strategy, empathy and decisiveness. These skills translate into my practice.
Prior to beginning my own practice, I spent time performing clinical work for the indigent population in the East Bay and clerking at the U.S. Attorney’s Office in San Jose. I was editor-in-chief of the Berkeley Journal of Criminal Law and a recipient of the Prosser Prize.
Please contact me with your business and estate planning needs.

We consulted with Hannah Sargent to update our very old Trust documents. She patiently listened to us, and answered our many questions, both in person and via email. We never felt rushed or "talked down" to. Documents were conveniently sent in email for our review.
