How We Help Clients
About Sterling Hughes
Our aim of reducing the stress facing our clients is reflected in our unique flat-rate pricing system. The last thing you need during a difficult time is the added worry of an unknown legal bill and hidden fees at the end of it. We don't charge hourly, which means that no matter how drawn out or complex your case becomes the price you pay never changes.
Included in your fee is all communication, research, travel, and time that our lawyers spend working with you. Our goal is to be proud of our work and provide the best possible outcome for our clients, not to nickel-and-dime the people who put their trust in us.
To be successful in the court of family law, you must be represented by someone who knows how to manage the system. Unlike many law offices, which offer a little of this and a little of that, at Sterling Hughes, LLC we practice exclusively in family law. Our team is made up of experienced divorce lawyers, Collaborative Law practitioners and trained mediators with over 60 years of combined experience.
When you choose Sterling Offices it means working with a knowledgeable attorney who will listen to your needs and walk you through the process every step of the way. We also make use of an excellent network of professionals who could be the difference between winning and losing a case.
Our network includes social workers, court officials, appraisers, and therapists that share our passion for finding what is fair in the law.
Honest communication with our clients is at the heart of our success and you will never be left in the dark during your case. After all, someone who isn't listening and talking to their client isn't effectively fighting for them either. We are here to put your mind at ease, and because we don't charge you by the hour, you can ask us questions any time without the fear of an extra bill.
Our daily updates and strategy sharing will relieve you any extra weight you carry as the case evolves. We realize that this may be one of the toughest times of your life, and we are here to help guide you through it.

"It was nice to work with a law firm that deals only with family law. Not having to worry about every papercopy, every call, every email and having to worry about my retainer fee put my mind at ease. I have been recommended and had to deal with lawyers that focus on other areas of law and none of them made me feel as comfortable about my case as attorney Navarrette did. She was always very quick to respond to calls or email, day or night. If I ever need anything again I will not hesitate to contact attorney Navarrette again."
