The firm has well-trained paralegals who are knowledgeable enough to be helpful to clients, but the lawyers take pride in being accessible to their clients, and are always available to answer any questions.
Sarah primarily practices real estate law for both commercial and residential clients; occasionally she also handles wills and estate planning.
“Getting to meet people is my favorite thing about practicing law,” she says. “I’m helping them when it’s an exciting time of their life—they’re purchasing or selling their property. Real estate is often a major purchase for individuals, and they always have a lot of questions. It can be stressful too, and I like being able to be there for them, to help them through the entire process.”
Sarah was born and raised in the Midwest, and moved to NY in the early ’70s. She decided to attend law school later in life, graduating from Fordham University of Law in 1996. She moved to Pawleys Island the following year, and loves living there.
“Because I was in business for many years before I became an attorney, I have a different outlook on life,” she says. “The fact that I have a business background makes me more appreciative of the positive aspects of law.”
