This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Would absolutely recommend!!

I was reading through Sarah's reviews when picking an attorney and someone's said "if you are reading this, I am so sorry you are going through this process". I assumed that if Sarah's clients would have that much empathy, so would she. I was right! She gave me straight answers and helped me move for...ward even when I didn't want to. I felt very lost when I came to her and she explained the process every step of the way. She saved me from staying in my toxic marriage and I will be forever grateful for her.

A+ Lawyer, Would Recommend to Anyone

I can't say enough good things about Sarah. She was worth every penny and more. She worked tirelessly over 18 months to help my ex-husband and I reach settlement agreements on all of our issues. Everything we agreed to was in my favor. I am unbelievably pleased with the outcome and so grateful I had ...her as an advocate through what would have otherwise been an incredibly challenging time in my life. We were a complicated, high-conflict case with many issues (including a young minor child) and she helped me stay calm, collected, and confident throughout. Every other professional I talked to during the process said how lucky I was to have her on my side and that they would use her themselves if they were in my situation. Don't hesitate to hire Sarah. She makes herself available, is professional, and beyond skilled at what she does.

Very, very highly recommend Sarah!

Sarah is an amazing lawyer and person. She knows the law, she knows what's possible, she understands all the nuances, and she is honest. During the most difficult time of my life, she guided me through the process and argued my case with truth and integrity. Even when dealing with difficult opposi...tion, she remained focused and clear. I cannot recommend Sarah enough!

A+ Would Recommend

Sarah was excellent through every phase of my separation and divorce. When I encountered a situation outside of her expertise, she guided me to a colleague who got a great outcome. Needless to say, I was not always the 'happiest camper' to be getting divorced. Sarah remained steady regardless of my d...emeanor, consistently and calmly focused on the next point of business. And as each 'hurtle' approached, time and again it was cleared satisfactorily. Just about every component of my divorce settled in an acceptable if not favorable fashion. Communication was always good. Billing seemed fair. There is much to be grateful for having chosen Sarah for my divorce and how it all went.

Sarah is the Best!

I cannot express how grateful I am to have Sarah as my attorney. She is professional, thorough, understanding, and has always had my back. My divorce went to trial, and I wouldn't have been able to get through it without Sarah. I highly, highly recommend!
