Divorce

Was shocked at the final bill after paying a 5k retainer for a divorce that should have been half of that. My divorce was a non-contested. no kids, no joint accounts, no assets, etc....should have been simple process. In my consultation I was led to believe it would not exceed roughly 2500; which is... still too high. I have several friends who divorced at the same time, and they paid no more than 1500 for a non-contested simple divorce. I was shocked when I got my refund from the retainage. I felt I could not reach out to the attorney for fear of the costs incurring so I refrained from asking any questions. My husband sent an email inquiry and I got charged. Documents requests were duplicated, and I got charged twice. I only met my attorney at court for the final.

Outstanding Attorney!

Sarah did an amazing job helping me navigate my way out of a difficult marriage with ease, confidence and knowledge. I love working with her as she is a family woman at heart and understands the best interests of children and parents!

Doing what's right

Sarah didn't just represent me, she advised me, and ultimately kept me from getting totally taken advantage of by opposing counsels "bull dog", super sneaky attorney. Sarah possesses the knowledge and experience that will stand for something when it means the most. I found Sarah through high recomm...endations from other people also in family law. And I can absolutely attest to the results and professionalism that I saw first hand. As a upright, honest husband/family man dealing with a greedy, manipulative ex, and her slick attorney. I'm absolutely glad I had Sarah on my side to help put them back in line and show them that good guys don't always finish last.

She's a keeper!

I've worked with and interviewed a bunch of attorneys over the past almost 4 years of my divorce. Some of them used me as an ATM, others had so many clients that they just could not give my case the attention it needed, and most of them just weren't very knowledgeable or intelligent. However, Sarah i...s different. She clearly understands the law, is very intelligent, detailed oriented, efficient, and responsive, and was able to identify and capitalize on the nuances of my case. I'm glad I finally found an attorney worth their salt, and would highly recommend her.

Great and knowledgeable attorney

I contacted Sarah for a consultation about my divorce. She did a great job helping me through the steps of what I needed to do on my end. She seemed very knowledgeable about all the proceedings and laws. I would definitely recommend her if your looking for help with your divorce or child custody.
