I'm so fortunate to have found Sara. She fought for me every step of the way. I felt a connection with her from the start. I put my trust in Sara and her commitment and dedication changed my life forever.

Sara Buehler is a scary pitbull, and I mean that in the most respectful way. Although she is compassionate, Sara is demanding of both herself and her clients, so don't hire her team if you want a therapist! Sara is organized, efficient, well connected, incredibly bright, streetwise, effective, poised and composed even under severe provocation. Sara handled my difficult divorce involving criminal actions and domestic violence. I received full legal and physical custody of our two children and was able to keep all my 401K savings! Sara and Christy Grey work together seamlessly, serving as back up for one another so there is always someone there when you need a live person. You definitely want this team on your side and not as opposing counsel!

Past client & mom of two teenagers

Sara and her team were terrific. From beginning to end she walked with me through all the hurdles and hoops during this hard season. With her expertise and negotiating skills and I felt really comfortable we would have a great result and we did. I’m happy to say the result was life changing and in the best way for me and my family and the time I thought I lost with my child I will gain back immensely. I’m eternally grateful to have found Sara and her team. Her compassion and kindness towards my situation and family made her an excellent choice. #chooseSara
