Excellent analysis and writing

In a complex spousal support reset, Sarah analyzed the case well, and both wrote and orally delivered creative, solid arguments that, coupled with clear questioning of witnesses, led to a very good result. Strongly recommend her.

Excellent Attorney!!!

Sarah Bond represented me in a highly contentious divorce case that lasted for over three years. The primary focus revolved around the care and safety of my now 6 year old son. Sarah Bond practices law with intelligence and thoughtfulness. Her integrity is unquestionable and she instilled me with con...fidence not only in her ability as a lawyer but in the legal process as well. I would give Sarah Bond a 5-Star rating for her professionalism. "ST"

Sarah was huge help with my divorce

I hired Sarah, needing advise with how to prepare myself for and then completing my divorce...a marriage of 9 years and one that I really hoped to be uncontested but was unsure the whole time on what would happen. Sarah helped me prepare for all scenarios, especially the worse-case one that scared m...e the most...and thankfully did not materialize. She help position me to manage through everything that took place through the course of uncontested settlement proceedings. I really feel i could not have done this without here advise and support, and I would greatly recommend her to those seeking counsel on similar situations. Thank you, Sarah!

Tough and Terrific

If you're looking for a attorney who will represent you in a divorce case, look no further! She will not back down in negotiations, even when her client is willing to do so, thus protecting her clients best interests. She is great returning calls and communicating with her clients. Zimmer Family Law ...is #1 in my book, lead by a fantastic principle, Gary Zimmer! If you want results, choose Zimmer Family Law!

Knowledgeable and Diligent

I highly recommend Sarah Bond to anyone who is looking for a family law attorney. She made sure I understood what my options were so I could make the best decisions on how to move forward with my case. She is very knowledgeable and diligent about her work and goes above and beyond to help settle thin...gs fairly and quickly. Sarah is also very quick to respond to all forms of communication, and really gained my trust right away after seeing all of the time and effort she put forth on my case. We had a lot of challenging obstacle to overcome, including an extremely long day in mediation. Sarah was well prepared and spent many hours reviewing bank statements, investment documents, and many other documents. She also gained as much knowledge as possible on both sides of my case, in order for us to be prepared for anything that might be presented to us. I felt more confident having Sarah by my side through such a challenging time.

  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
