Great Lawyer!

My situation wasn't very complicated, but Sara did an amazing job handling every aspect of my case. I never thought I would need a to hire an attorney to deal with parenting time, but I'm glad I did, and I'm glad it was Her! To anyone on the fence about hiring a lawyer, just know that it’s worth ev...ery penny when it’s a good one. There is a lot that is involved with family law, and having an expert to guide you through it is invaluable.

Against All Odds

My long history of mental health issues, hospitalizations, and my file with child welfare were all stacked against me. Against all odds, I was awarded full custody of my children after no contact for almost a year. Sara is a master planner and the queen of details. Her plan was strategic and ever...y base was covered. It was a triumphant ending with me picking up my kids on the last day of court. I can’t express enough how grateful I am to Sara.

Such an amazing attorney.

Sara helped me through a really painful divorce and I am extremely happy with the alimony/support she fought to get me. She is helpful, kind and explains thing so you completely understand. I couldn't have gotten anyone more experienced.

Would definitely recommend

Sara represented me in the dissolution of my domestic partnership, yep she was my lawyer in my gay divorce. She was knowledgeable about the law and its application to my and my children's specific situation. Her knowledge and reassuring demeanor helped me through a very difficult period in my lif...e. She communicated with me constantly through email and telephone in a timely manner, and I always felt appraised of current developments. Sara did her best to move proceedings along, even with the other party and her attorney being less than prompt. Sarah was exactly what I and my family needed to usher me through a complicated legal process, while reminding me that asking for (and getting ) things that are equitable and fair is well within my rights. I'm relieved to be done with this process, and grateful that I had Sara with me through it. I would absolutely recommend her and her services to anyone looking for a family law attorney who is friendly, helpful, knowledgable, and who definitely cares about and will work for what is best for you and your family.

She gave us HOPE when we felt defeated!

My partner and I had a very complicated case on our hands. After going to 3 different lawyers we were turned away as we were told we had a losing case. It may have been for the mere fact as these lawyers possibly didn't agree with the LGBT lifestyle and or they simply didn't want to risk their good s...tanding record in their win/lose ratio. Either way we are thankful they turned us away because they led us to Sara Angelettii. Our case was a very challenging case dealing with parenting rights, custody, and disestablishing parental rights with a lot of twisted angles. To say the least it was not simple. Sara took this case without hesitation. Not only did she take the case she extended her help for us to do second parent adoption. Our case lasted almost 2 years due to all the challenges we faced such as; court processes, other party refusing to work with us in a timely manner. Sara was very smart during this time and used it to our advantage. Throughout this process Sara worked with us and kept us in the loop with evetything. It truly felt like a team . She remained very honest and while continuing to give us hope when feeling defeated she kept it realistic. She also invested herself . We werent just another case on her desk. I will remember the most Sara telling us She's with us to the end. Sara worked in a way when I thought she would go right she went left and all though at times I didn't understand, I now understand why. Her decisions led us to winning the case! A case that 3 other lawyers turned away! I must also say that the other parties lawyer was a very expensive named lawyer that was very aggressive and was good at making you feel like you had no chance. In the end just goes to show doesn't matter who you are unless your Sara Angelettii! I highly recommend her to represent you . We couldn't ask for a better lawyer! She kept our family together!
