EXCELLENCE and INTEGRITY

I have hired Vonda M. Sargent on numerous occasions for issues ranging from personal injuries (car crashes) to disputes with local government and with large corporate entities. Results have always been in my favor. I always found Ms. Sargent's staff to be professional, caring and responsive. Based on... my personal experiences, I often refer friends and colleagues in need of legal representation to Ms. Sargent. If she is unable to take a case, she will make a referral to another appropriate, reputable attorney. Everyone I have referred to Ms. Sargent has been satisfied with the outcome of their case - whether they were represented by her or by a colleague she referred them to. Ms. Sargent is a highly skilled strategist with the utmost integrity. She will analyze the merits of your case, let you know up front if it is actionable, and then guide you through the process until it is resolved. Ms. Sargent is direct, empathetic, and very thorough. She has a brilliant legal mind and is passionate about battling injustices both inside and outside the courtroom. If you want a lawyer to represent you who will really fight for you, call Vonda Sargent's office now. She is an excellent attorney!

I was well represented

I came to Vonda after talking to her as well as a few other lawyers about my car crash case. In my case I was trying to get money from my own insurance company because the other driver didn't have enough money to cover my medical bills and my insurance company didn't want to cover the bills either d...espite me paying for insurance coverage just in case this were to happen. Vonda was able to explain the process to me and made my insurance company give me coverage that I paid years of premiums for and then some! I got a great result and am very happy with her.

Brilliant, Professional, and tenacious

Vonda Sargent is such an amazing lawyer and all around human. She helped me find justice when I didn’t even think it was possible in my situation. She was honest and upfront and kept me in the loop during the whole case. She worked tirelessly on my behalf, never giving up no matter what road blocks ...tried to stop her. Her knowledge and experience are top tier and her tenacity to make her clients whole after they have been injured is unmatched. If you’re looking for a professional and skilled trial attorney who will fight for you as long as it takes, then she is definitely who you need on your side. She is a tireless advocate for her clients and never gives up.

Fantastic! Courageous! Knowledgeable!

Vonda Sargent has truly been a godsend to our family's personal injury claim. Vonda was hardworking, responsive, strategic and brilliant--all at the same time! Summarizing, my Mother was injured by a vehicle and Vonda got my family QUADRUPLE what was initially offered. Cannot thank her enough. Do... yourself a favor. Hire her today.

Bad communication and no action

My family hired Vonda to help with a racism/assault claim. She seemed invested in our case initially but dropped off the face of the earth. Despite numerous emails, promises to get back to us and phone calls, we have had no update in almost 5 months and need to get a new lawyer. We are extremely disa...ppointed. According to her receptionist she is dealing with more important cases. If that’s the case, she should have just said so. A waste of time.

Replied last April 10, 2024

This is simply not true. Your spouse was arrested, charged and convicted of assault because he was the aggressor. It was explained to you that given the facts of this matter there was simply nothing I could do for your family. You voiced your disappointment and refused to believe that I could not file a claim.
