What Our Clients Have To Say
Sam came recommended to me and I’m so thankful to have found him. Having never had any legal issues before, the idea of hiring a lawyer and going through the process of divorce was very daunting. I never thought I would be in this position nor ever wanted to be. Sam was compassionate and understanding and I truly felt like he was on my team. He made everything as easy as possible under the circumstances and was completely professional, while at the same time understood all the emotions I was going through and made me feel like I had a friend through it all. He’s a great attorney and a great person. I highly recommend him!
Sam recently represented me in a divorce proceeding and I was very satisfied with his services. The best part about hiring Sam is he acts in a very transparent and pragmatic manner, which really resonated with me. Divorce is nasty business and avoiding the emotional trappings of my spouse / her family was a cornerstone of the counsel Sam provided. I felt like he genuinely had my best interests at heart and actively strove to represent those interests accordingly. Couldn’t have been happier with how the settlement shook out, and I directly attribute that to my lawyer. Extremely relatable and personable with me throughout the entirety of the process, highly recommend his services.
Sam is not only a great lawyer, he is a stand up guy as well. He helped me through a difficult custody case recently. He has expansive knowledge of the law and was always very honest with me- a great trait in any person, especially a lawyer. Very grateful that I called him, and not someone else. I don’t know if it would have gone as well if I had. If you need serious legal help, call him. It will take a lot off of your mind knowing that someone more than capable is handling it. One last important point to make- affordable. He could easily charge much more- I think that is another testament to his character.
Highly Recommend!!! Outstanding Lawyer!!! I have nothing bad to say about Samuel. Samuel works in full details so that you always know what’s happening and why. He will always consult with you before making any action to see how you feel about it. Samuel is honest, fare, and very understanding, and definitely knows what he’s doing. I honestly can say I am glad I hired Samuel for my custody battle. Not only is he a great lawyer but also a great person. You don’t have to take my word for it. Set up a meeting with him and see for yourself.
Sam changed my opinion of lawyers. He approached my delicate family situation with empathy, clarity, and provided a very simple and straightforward approach to my legal issues. I wouldn’t have been able to navigate this very difficult time without his expert help and guidance. If you are in a situation and you are committed to doing the right things for the right reasons, Sam is your man.
I cannot emphasize enough how grateful I am to have worked with Sam through my divorce. I had a relatively quick and minimally complicated divorce, but he is the one who made it go so smoothly. When I reached out to Sam he responded to my call within a couple of hours and met with him in person later that week. My stressed mind was put at ease in just one meeting with him. He answered all of my questions as they came up and made me feel like he was always available to help me. Sam was thorough, efficient, professional, and compassionate. I am so grateful a relieved to have worked with him and he is 100% worth every dollar spent. A great lawyer and great human being. Don’t go anywhere else!
Sam is professional and compassionate. I trusted Sam with my child custody case and as a result I was able to build a better relationship with my ex for the sake of my son. We are now both on the same page about what we want for our child. For those of you that have an ex, this is not always possible. Sam built a great foundation for my case and outlined all the possible outcomes. I turned over everything to Sam and did not stress or worry about what would happen. I will recommend him to everyone. His fees are fair and honestly, I would have been ok with paying more for the work he provided.
Samuel is a fantastic attorney. From the consultation to the completion of my legal issue, he remained straightforward, honest, and professional. One major reason that I decided to choose Samuel was because he did not dance around the options I had. He laid them out and suggested the best course at the consult. This gave me confidence in not only his ability, but his character as well. He was professional throughout and provided high quality legal services for a fair price. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others.
I hired Sam to be my divorce lawyer and the experience was better than I could have hoped for. He was so warm, empathic, friendly and professional. Talking to him and working with him felt like being with a friend who had my best interests in mind at all times. I could not recommend him more highly. He’s a great person in addition to being a stellar lawyer. Sam I can’t thank you enough for helping me through this difficult time and being such a support at the same time!
