Amazing Family Law Attorney

Ms. BlackOwl has walked me through every stage of my divorce, from filing my divorce to disclosing, to settlement. I'm just a month away from a dissolution now. What was once a terrifying situation has now become manageable. I feel certain and calm about the next steps and I cannot thank her and her... office staff for navigating me through such a difficult time. I would recommend her highly. If the process of divorce scares you, this is the attorney for you.

Words are not enough, but here goes...

While going through what I'm certain was and will always be the worst time of my life for myself and my youngest daughter, Sage was my pillar of strength. When I could not keep my emotions in check, Sage was everything that I needed to be but simply couldn't be due to my emotions at the time. Sag...e was completely non-judgemental, fair and always logical. I was able to comfortably be myself, as well as misdirect some emotions her way, without her taking it personally. All the while she maintained professional, thorough, and using her vast experience with the law, did what was best for myself and my family. Athough she was my attorney, I will keep her eternally close to my heart, because without her all would be lost. I highly recommend this incredibly intelligent, compassionate, diplomatic, professional to anyone who is suffering through any type of legal unfairness. She will do everything in her power make sure that she is following all leads, leaving no stone unturned, to help you the way that she helped me. I can't say enough about this individual. I trust her completely with my life, my child, and my affairs. I don't know where I would be without her. I am forever grateful.

Our Lifesaver

I was living a nightmare for the last several years but I reached out to Sage and she took such good care of me and my young son. She was there at every turn, she was aggressive, knowledgeable, and professional. I honestly believe that she created a legal strategy that saved my son’s life. There is n...o doubt that my son’s father would’ve done severe harm to him. Now he can have a normal childhood free from abuse and trauma. I will never be able to repay her for all that she’s done for us. I am forever indebted to her. Sage is an incredible attorney.

Nice lady

I requested a consultation on here (Avvo) she contacted me about 2 days later I believe and talked to me for almost an hour. She was a great help and defiantly helped put my mind at ease at least a little. If I need a lawyer she will be the one I choose

She was excellent couldn't of been better

She was great. Showed up for me at court on very short notice when someone was trying to take custody off my 8 year old son just 2 weeks after his mom passed. She was very well prepared took care of everything and made me feel at ease with everything that was going on.
