Years of Family Law Experience
Sarah works exclusively with clients who are dealing with divorce, separation, child custody litigation, and other family law issues in San Diego.

By providing legal advice while simultaneously keeping the focus on her client’s objectives, she assists them in formulating solutions and coming to agreements that will meet both their short term and long term goals. Sarah extends compassion to her clients and delivers zealous advocacy, operating at a high level to preserve her clients’ dignity throughout their family law proceeding.

After graduating from law school, Sarah worked as a legal consultant at an estate planning and asset protection law firm as well as completed a position as a summer associate at a civil litigation firm in Utah.
