Great Addition to the Team!

I hired attorney Stuart Reid and was also able to work with Sarah as well from his office. She is definitely a people person and fights for you! She was very organized for our court appearances and was easy to contact. She has great time management skills that I was able to see by how quickly she fil...ed my papers and took care of the finer details.

Sarah is an excellent attorney who helped me in a complex divorce

Sarah Kahn is an exceptional family law attorney who helped represent me an out of the ordinary divorce. She is very thorough, detail oriented, and quick to respond to any questions. Communication was top notch. The entire case was handled in a way which brought a set of difficult circumstance to... a quick and painless conclusion. I was happy with my representation through every step of the divorce process and I wouldn't hesitate to hire Sarah in any future legal matter relating to my divorce or child custody issues. Thank you Sarah.

Supportive and professional

Thank you for your service Sarah! Sarah was very prompt in responding to my emails and phone calls, not once she ever missed my calls. She answered all my questions in a timely manner and was great on follow ups with me. I would highly recommend Sarah!

Extremely helpful

Sarah worked hand in hand in my case and was always on top of everything dealing with my custody case. She always returned my phone calls and emails very quickly. I would highly recommend her to anyone dealing with divorce or custody issues.

Sarah Kahn review

I worked with Sarah on my divorce case. She was friendly, yet professional. She reviewed case law for retirement distribution and property settlements. Sarah worked on analyzing financial data and records for the case. She followed up all relevant questions and kept me informed throughout the process.... A pleasure to work with.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • 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.
