Thank you!

I appreciated Sarah Newell's clear communication right from the start. She layed out options that were easy to understand and took to heart the goals I contacted her with. She answered every email and phone call in such a timely manner!!! She and her team were very easy to work with and connected thr...ough the whole process. I never felt like just another file on their desk.

Highly recommend

This is the first time I have ever been compelled to leave a customer review for anything. Only good things to say about Sarah and the Berry law firm. Sarah is very good at what she does. Explaining situations, giving guidance, knowing what to expect and preparing you for court dates. She has a... calming touch to her process, takes time to listen and you will end conversations knowing that you are in good hands. Sarah represented me in a criminal case, was comfortable and effective in court and I would recommend that you hire her and Berry Law. Good results. Money well spent.

Sarah was very effective in my defense, she kept it clean and stood up for what was right, I would highly recommend Sarah as your defense attorney.

Title 9

We were told by numerous people that Sarah was one of the best and Sarah proved to be that and more. Sarah is the ultimate professional and we were amazed at how quickly she responded to every email, text, or call and always made us feel as if we were her most important case. We couldn't be more p...leased with the outcome and know Sarah gets full credit.

Dynamo!

Sarah is the definition fierce, direct and effective. Her representation of my son was absolutely life altering! This lady is a dynamo. She works hard and can present a case so effectively that the jurors themselves are a bit awestruck. If there was a place for bonus stars I would rate her 10/10! ...Bless you Sarah.

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.
