About
Early in his career, Mr. Sarnacki encountered a very general need for attorneys practicing in domestic matters to be well versed in the many collateral areas of law, including consumer bankruptcy, probate, real estate, and personal injury matters. In fact Mr. Sarnacki feels that many attorneys who lack general knowledge of the interplay of other legal areas within the domestic realm, may be selling their client short of their potential legal rights and/or remedial outlets. For over three decades Mr. Sarnacki has successfully represented thousands of clients in divorce and related matters and has become a leader in the industry. He is consistently retained to clean up the mess left behind by ineffective counsel and does so zealously.In the last decade there has been a considerable flooding of the legal market of attorneys who claim to be experts in an array of legal disciplines, however, many of whom who fall far short of that claim. Mr. Sarnacki is an avid advocate for hiring counsel that do not perform bulk legal services and are tried and true. Mr. Sarnacki holds himself out as the last of a dying breed of true litigators and is known for zealously advocating on behalf of his clients.Areas of Practice: Complex Divorce and Custody Matters, Bankruptcy, Probate, Personal Injury, Civil Litigation.Education/Professional Background: Michigan State University (B.A., Pre-Law – cum laude); Detroit College of Law (Juris Doctor, 1980).Admission: State Bar of Michigan, admitted to practice 1981; United States Federal Court, Eastern District, admitted 1981, U.S. District Court, Western District, admitted 1987; and Supreme Court of the United States, admitted in 1988.Memberships/Affiliations: Macomb County Bar Association (Member, 1981 – present; Chairperson, Lawyer Referral Committee; Recipient of Extraordinary Service Award, 1994); National Association of Consumer Bankruptcy Attorneys (Member 2009-present); attend National Convention, Chicago, IL 2009); Consumer Bankruptcy Association of the Eastern District of Michigan (Member, 2009-present).Achievements:Argued numerous cases before the Michigan Court of Appeals, Michigan Supreme Court, U.S. District Court for the Eastern and Western Districts, and the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit.

I was referred to Mr. Sarnacki by a good friend who used him for her divorce, her exact words were "you won't be disappointed, he is really good' and she was 100% correct. First off, Mr. Sarnacki was caring and very supportive not only initially, but throughout the entire process. My divorce, like most, was not easy and there were many times when I did not think it would ever end, but Henry was there every step of the way supporting me and assuring me that it would. He was generous with his time and took time to explain every aspect of the process. He was also very open and honest about the process and encouraged me to fight for what I was entitled to, even when I did not want to. We had to have a deposition with my ex husband and Henry managed that process with professionalism and made that process as comfortable as it could be. He was attentive and always responded within a reasonable time frame and his office support staff was also caring and very easy to work with. I am very happy that I hired Mr. Sarnacki and am very pleased with the outcome of my divorce. My divorce was a highly stressful time but I did not worry as I knew that Mr. Sarnacki had not only my best interests in mind, but my children as well. I would highly recommend Mr. Sarnacki to anyone who is looking for a divorce attorney. While I hope to never need his services again for divorce, if I had another legal matter I would definitely use Mr. Sarnacki.
My husband and I hired Mr. Henry Sarnacki to represent us in August of 2018. It was regarding a very complex real estate matter, in which we were taken advantage of by a property mgr. who leased our home with an option to buy. Mr. Sarnacki got us a favorable outcome to our litigation on March 3, 2020. Mr. Sarnacki is a true professional who doesn't miss anything and sticks to the facts. His attention to detail was outstanding. He walked us through the process, managed and exceeded our expectations. His experience and excellence in what he does was obvious to us almost immediately. Mr. Sarnacki is very trustworthy, he tirelessly fought on our behalf and had a great strategy from start to finish. His summary disposition and presence were the final touches that made all the difference. We were very blessed to have found him and we are confident anyone that uses Mr. Henry Sarnacki would agree.
Hired Mr. Sarnacki to represent me in a divorce dispute and lawsuit against my Ex wife. He handled things well and with good guidance, and won my case!
Mr. Sarnacki was my saving grace. He was calm in the middle of the worst storm of my life. His kindness, guidance, knowledge and experience are unmatched. My daughter is safe because of Mr. Sarnacki. Mr. Sarnacki is brilliant and openly communicates all options and the big picture. Im externally grateful for him.
Shortly after I had been served I was in a state of panic regarding custody of my small children. I spoke with several attorneys. Very few of them gave me the sense that they actually cared. Henry was only Attorney that took the time to listen to me, guide me through this foreign process and show me what positives could come from this drastic change in my life. His caring demeanor and calmness was comforting. Henry was meticulous and detailed in all our arguments. He presented arguments in a manner that left the other party at a loss many times. He showed me what I could do to strengthen my case. He was prepared 100% of the time. Everything that comes from Henry is logical and organized. Henry won me a custody arrangement better than I thought was even possible. I’m very happy with my kids. I’m eternally grateful to Henry for everything he’s done for my family.
Henry handled my parents' estate better that I ever could have hoped. He was easy to contact, always returned calls and emails, and always obtained the correct answers for me. I had very difficult and involved estate issues that, at times, needed to be handled quickly. Henry got it all done, and done correctly, to avoid future issues. Henry was kind and professional during a difficult and emotional time. I would highly recommend Henry to anyone looking for an established, experienced lawyer.
I was nervous and afraid but Mr. Sarnacki was so thorough and knowledgeable that it all went like a breeze and the outcome was perfect. What a huge weight lifted off my shoulders! He has a very friendly and approachable demeanour as well.
I found Mr Sarnacki and his staff to be extremely professional and efficient. I would highly recommend him to to friends and family.
My 9th grade grandson, AP Honor student, did a foolish act at school by tossing a paper poster to another boy in class, and this poster hit a female classmate. My grandson was sent to the office and suspended from school and told he could not attend the Freshman Farewell event that was scheduled for that same evening. This occurred at 2:00 pm and school was letting out at 3:00. This was certainly not a crisis in the grander scheme of things in life, but an important event for my grandson. I immediately called Henry's office, the secretary got Henry on the line, and Henry started outlining next steps. He said, he would called another attorney who specialized in Labor/Education issues. In about 20 minutes, Henry was calling me back with advice on how to handle the situation - with great information to bring with me as my daughter and I went to see the vice-principle. We arrived at the school - met with the vice-principle and I was able to relay Henry's advice. The vice-principle said he had reconsidered and would allow my grandson to attend the event and also the suspension was rescinded. Henry has been my family attorney for almost three decades - I trust his advice, his professionalism, and his quick response.
I have known Henry for 14 years. Over that time, he has represented me in several domestic matters (and prevailed) when I thought the deck was stacked so high against me that I had no chance. Tireless attention to detail is where real results are found and were definitely the difference makers in my domestic matters. I am proud to recommend Henry and the peace of mind his service provides.
