Sarah made my case quick and painless for me. She got the case dismissed and I didn’t even have to pay court costs! I highly recommend her.
Sarah and Robin were great! They are very attentive and compassionate. They are well versed in the workings of the legal system and explained things so that we understood what was happening. They were always available for questions and concerns. Their hard work resulted in a favorable outcome for my son. Without them I fear the outcome may have been much worse. I can't recommend them enough.
Sarah and Robin her assistant have the experience and knowledge going over how the case was to be presented and how she was going to represent my nephew to get this case resolved in our favor. Very happy with the outcome.Highly recommend Sarah -we felt at ease and comfortable talking with Sara and Robin.
At the age of 54, I found myself in legal trouble for the first time in my life. I had been charged with a sex crime by a resident in the apartment complex where I work. I was terrified! If convicted, I would lose my job and my life would be destroyed. I would be a registered sex offender and I faced prison time. But how do you prove you DIDN’T do something like that when someone accuses you? I knew I needed a lawyer that is an expert in sexual assault cases. I found Sarah in an online search, and I thank God I found her! She was very responsive and understood my needs right away. She is a true professional -- knowledgeable, reliable, and assertive in court. She knows how to navigate the Cuyahoga County courts and I would have been lost without her! Sarah worked tirelessly on my case, and I never had a doubt that putting my life in her hands was the right decision. I always felt well cared for. Sarah and her paralegal were very supportive when I would stress out and always responded to my texts and calls no matter the time of day. It was Sarah’s job to advocate for me and she really did her job well. Each time we were in court, she was professional, prepared, confident and firm with the prosecutor and judge. Because of Covid, my case dragged on for 2 ½ years and Sarah never gave up on me. All of that hard work paid off because I was found not guilty at trial!! Sarah saved my life! I’m very fortunate to have met Sarah because I feel like it is rare to find a lawyer that genuinely cares and is passionate about fighting for you. If I ever need legal help again, I will definitely hire Sarah and I highly recommend her to anyone. If you are facing serious charges like I was, you would be a fool not to hire her because there is no one better. If I could rate her 10 stars I would because she exceeded my expectations. Sarah is the true definition of a passionate lawyer that will stand with you side by side through it all. Thank you, Sarah, for fighting for me - it changed my life.
I trusted Sarah with my life when I suddenly found myself in a terrifying situation that had life-changing ramifications. She delivered, and then some. Putting my future in her hands was one of the best decisions I've made, hands down. It's hard to think where I'd be today if I'd ended up choosing a different attorney. The legal aid her and her wonderful assistant Robin provided was top notch. No matter how hopeless things looked, they went above and beyond to make themselves available, reassure me, and keep me informed every step of the way. Sarah was forthright and professional, but most importantly she truly cared. She never sugarcoated things. And thanks to her assistant Robin, who I was able to reach at practically any time in the day, I was never left in the dark. If you're like me and never in a million years imagine finding yourself in serious and life-threatening legal trouble, I can't recommend Sarah enough. Just days after contacting her, she met with me personally and ensured I was aware of the nature of the potential charges I faced. I fully expected my ordeal to last for many long and grueling months. Yet within a few weeks, Sarah gathered all the evidence she could and put together an excellent defense on my behalf. The result? No charges were filed... and the matter was put to rest. To quote Sarah verbatim when she gave me the good news over the phone, I'm a very fortunate man. I couldn't put it any better myself and I owe it all to her.
I got her on speed dial, now what does that tell you ? Reputation speaks for itself !!
I had a case from years back that I need to deal with and confront. The case was in Ohio, and I had since moved out of state. Sarah had worked with me for when I was going to be in town and made the whole process a lot less scary and explained everything to me. I would highly recommend her!
Sarah Kovoor represented me in my very complicated divorce and custody cases. I couldn't be happier with the way things turned out! She was caring and compassionate and helped me through one of the most difficult times of my life. Sarah is tough and she fought to get me everything I wanted. If you need a great lawyer who really cares, call Sarah!
Sarah has been extremely helpful during a time-sensitive criminal case for my significant other who was incarcerated. She was able to provide support to a case to narrow down charges all into one charge within one court system. She was able to take on a case with an outcome that I am more than happy with, along with the person who was incarcerated. The updates that I was provided with during this process were helpful to me and they both, have been able to inform me with what happened with the case. I am happy that I was able to reach out to her and for her to act quickly with this case, and my significant other is on the road for a better path!
Visiting downtown on a long weekend . From another state.Was involved in a felony case involving a cleveland casino. Was totally innocent but because of the powerof the casino lobby in the state of ohio the charges were not dropped after a complete explanation of what truly happened was given . Inital attorney was a disaster from day one...very very bad man . Sarah was great from day one. Did what she said she would do. Tremendous stress for one full year. Agreed to a lesser charge because the risks going to trial were not worth a possible adverse outcome. The final outcome was the conviction was expunged after the normal wait period. No record of this ever happening. Sarah was easy to talk to but very direct which i liked. Very good attoney. Even now after everything is complete she is there to help me if I have any questions about the expungement. I feel if i had a question or a concern 6 months, even a year from now, from now she and her staff would be there to help me.Pretty amazing individual.
