The first thing that made Michael stand out was the quick and deep understanding that he had on my affair, which allowed him to have excellent perspective, and review some angles of it that i would never thought of. He made every legal complexity clear and understandable for me, and walked me through the process step by step, making sure i was on the same page with him. He proposed multiple different handling trying for the most suitable solution. Overall, he is a true expert on his field.

There are no words to express how thankful I am to Michael Sarris for being my divorce lawyer back in 2005. Divorce is an emotionally and logistically stressful time, and to have a trustworthy, realistic, human, sensitive to our needs’ attorney, and specially someone who cares with an impeccable work ethic it is what we crave. And exactly those skills and much more were what I got from Mr. Michael Sarris. Mr. Michael Sarris, I literally couldn’t have done it without you!

Michael has a diligent and thorough legal mind and is an outstanding family law attorney. He fights like hell for his clients and, in my experience, gets optimal results and delivers top quality legal services at. reasonable rates compared to the competition. I have consulted him for several personal issues and referred family law clients to him. For me, his practical and knowledgeable advice has been spot on. For the referrals, he has obtained optimal outcomes at a reasonable rates.

Mr. Sarris has served me several times over the last 20 years in various matters such as family law, marital advice, real estate transactions in US and in Europe, Commercial law in USA, Australia, and Europe and he has represented me in the court of law several times in personal injuries matters. Mr Sarris is very honest, very upfront, makes no "marketing" claims, he delivers on his promises and he is a very stand up individual. HIGHLY recommended.

Michael Sarris is a top-notch business, family law, estates lawyer who has obtained outstanding results for me and my family for over ten years. As the former Chief Counsel to the Governor, I have overseen dozens of lawyers and many legal matters, and I have chosen Michael Sarris to be my and my family's lawyer in several very difficult matters. He is an excellent lawyer, litigator and counselor, and is respected by the Courts and opposing counsel as well as by his satisfied clients. Excellent!!

Mr. Sarris is a great lawyer who has helped me with family law, estates and small business litigation maters both in and out of court, and in mediation and arbitration. He is a great listener and communicates what is possible and how to "get there" in a good way, and when a case does not look great, he negotiated on my behalf to get the best outcome. I have trusted his counsel and legal skill and recommend him highly. Mr. Sarris is terrific and always available to explain and fight for my rights

I'm 89 years old, and Mike Sarris has helped me both in California and in my native Greece with court proceedings in divorce, custody, litigation, banking and credit matters, and also did alternative resolution by arbitration and mediation for me with my former spouse. Mike is a really good lawyer who got me the best result in really difficult situations both in court and out of court. Mike is also a great listener for someone who is old and disabled like me. He's a great advocate and counsel.

I entrusted Michael Sarris with my most vital case, my child’s custody. After going through the court hearing with Michael, it became clear to me that his overall strategy was weak and inadequate. He persisted in wanting me to communicate with my ex about matters that the court did not care about. I have been very disappointed about Michael Sarris’ overall handling of my case and the fact that following his failed strategy and execution, now my child can only see me on a very limited basis.

 
Response from
Case concerned a special needs child who had undergone extensive medical treatment cared for primarily by the other parent who took extraordinary steps. The Court awarded the other parent with primary custody on a TEMPORARY BASIS until next hearing.
