Overall I was very satisfied with how Sari represented me in my divorce case. She quickly understood the situation and what was needed and pushed forward intelligently and strategically. She was always available when needed - there have been many times when I exchanged a flurry of emails with her late at night or on weekends to resolve an issue quickly. And her billing for all time was very reasonable and appropriate. I always reviewed bills against my notes and they were always as expected, or even a little less than I anticipated sometimes. Sari is an aggressive lawyer. She's tough, but cordial - certainly not warm and fuzzy, but that's not what I need from a lawyer. The only time we disagreed was frankly when I wanted to go easier on my ex than she recommended. But I'd rather have that than someone who is not constantly fighting for her client. My ex complained at one point that I outspent him in legal fees, but my understanding is that in fact he spent a LOT more than I did. I'm very happy with the outcome of my case and would definitely recommend Sari.

I met with Sari Friedman after having a terrible experience for two years with a previous lawyer. I liked her immediately - I thought she was really knowledgeable, smart, no nonsense, and passionate. I left her office and knew I had to have Sari represent me! I signed a retainer in September and by the first week in December, my divorce was final. This had been dragging on for two years due to procrastination by my ex husbands attirney which went unchallenged by my previous attorney. Sari and Andrea were both amazing - professional, responsive, aggressive, and got me an outcome that made me cry (happy tears) - better than I thought possible. The office staff is also amazing - very nice, accommodating. Especially because I came from a very bad experience with another attorney, I totally appreciate their hard work, passion and compassion, and above all, skill! I am so very grateful to Sari and Andrea for advocating so successfully for my daughters and I! I tell everyone I know (almost on a daily basis!), that if they are or anyone else they know ever needs a divorce attorney, please use Friedman and Friedman. Thank you!!!!!!

Sari and Andrea Friedman have represented me through a high conflict divorce. Both my attorneys were very good at helping me maintain a cool head and sanity in the eyes of the Court. They are firm, assertive and do not engage in the dirty tricks that many other attorneys at larger firms seem alright with. It has not been easy or cheap - and no contested divorce is. If your expectations are out of line with the real world of the divorce court system, then you will constantly be disappointed by any attorney you hire. But if you accept that you must fight in the face of true adversity, against an unreasonable adversary, allowing your attorney to do the job, and most of all develop patience, then you can come out of it being the saner and wiser of two parents / ex-spouses. Sari and Andrea know this, and are prepared to handle any scenario that's thrown at them. I trust them implicitly and am very thankful I hired them. Give them a chance. You won't be sorry.
