Over the years, Sarah has represented clients charged with everything from murder to littering.

Some of her appeals have even created case law. See Hunter v. Commonwealth, 6 Va. App. 50, 690 S.E.2d 792 (2010) and Moter v. Commonwealth, 61 Va. App. 471, 737 S.E.2d 538 (2013).After 8 years of serving only the indigent that were charged with crimes, Sarah decided to move forward with her legal career in 2015 and open a general practice firm focusing on criminal defense and family law.
