Mike has represented me and various family members of mine for a number of things over the last decade, starting with my divorce from my first husband in 2008. He has always given my family and I his honest opinion and assessment of our case, even when we don't like the answer we receive. It is easy to take things personally in the middle of your own legal matter, and he offers an outside perspective that often brings us back to center and helps us to evaluate the situation without all of the emotion. His honesty is also something that keeps our legal bill down as he won't pursue matters that, in the grand scheme of things, are frivolous, just to run up a bill. I am thankful to have had his legal and personal advice over the years and will continue to turn to him, as well as refer friend and family to him, for so long as he practices law.
I originally contacted Mr. Sahagian when my sister got herself into some trouble a few years back. He was straightforward, honest and helpful from the start. He explained how he thought the case would go and recommended how we should proceed. He then went above and beyond for my family and I. Since then I have called him for a few things recently and he always personally calls me back promptly with advise that is helpful.

I also defend attempts by the other party to modify child/spousal support. Establishing child custody/parenting time, or modifying existing child custody/parenting time, and child support if awarded.

Excellent Lawyer
My Family trusts him with all their needs, and he is always the one we recommend. I had a bankruptcy, and he was professional and handled the case like a pro.

Wonderful Advocate!
Mr. Sahagian is an amazing advocate, smart, organized, sensible and professional. He is very experienced and absolutely knows the law and how to best serve his clients.
I had a very difficult case and he made me feel completely safe and guided me to the best result possible.
The most important thing about Mr. Sahagian is that he is HONEST and has INTEGRITY. I'm so grateful that I hired him and if I ever need legal representation again, I will call him immediately.
