Very supportive
Kind and compassionate
Atty Ali Isroff was compassionate, honest, patient and there every step of the way. Trying to navigate through one of the most difficult times in one’s life can be a lot but, Ali and her team made it a little easier to swallow. Ali Isroff and Danielle Kasper were always super responsive and available for any questions, issues or concerns that I had. Sterling Lawyers are NOT just in it for the money and do not nickel and dime you for everything. Ali truly did care about my case, my wellbeing and was always honest in the most respectful way. Divorce isn’t something that anyone wants to go through but, having a lawyer by your side that you can trust is a confidence that everyone deserves. I feel lucky that I was granted that privilege and appreciate everything that Ali has done for me and my family.
Knowledge of attorney and ease of discussion.
Solid communication. Assuaged my concerns. Not done yet, but we are making great headway. I trust that we will make my goal deadline of EOM filing.
"Attorney Nina Kelly took on my case, and I can’t thank her enough for all she’s provided for myself and my family! If you want a strong, highly intelligent, highly skilled, force to be reckoned with (in a good way!) lawyer who is committed, dedicated, goes above and beyond for her clients, takes additional time explaining, who is extremely compassionate, professional, thorough and sometimes brutally honest (I love that she never sugar-coated anything!) this attorney is for you! She is unstoppable, driven, energetic, passionate about her clients, it truly shows and the time and effort she put into my case, I’m amazed at what she achieved and made possible! I HIGHLY recommend Attorney Nina Kelly, you will not regret it! She is unbelievably AMAZING in every way. Thank you Nina, for all your hard work and efforts you put in to my case, I’m forever grateful!
I also want to add that the entire team was so kind, professional, helpful, and compassionate, especially Stacey in billing, and Paralegal Kimberley Rose who worked with Attorney Nina Kelly. Thank you all for your efforts!"
We’re very considerate of my needs and feeling since this is a very emotional process.
The pricing flexibility and knowledge of the process was great!
On a scale of 1-10, I would absolutely recommend Ali to friends and family. She was kind, understanding, honest, reliable, easy to get ahold of, and considerate of the sensitive topic. I appreciate everything she did for me!!
The attorney was friendly, straightforward and knowledge
Atty. Jacqueline McClellan kept me up to date on all the proceedings of my case. She also helped to steer me towards better conclusions when it came to divisions of property and parenting time.
Hello my name is Vera And If I could give 10 stars I would. I want to share my experience that I had with Attorney Nina. My first approach with Nina I was wreak, I was nervous and scared and with anything or anyone new you always have doubts but I was shown otherwise by Nina, she went over and beyond for me and I couldn’t thank her enough today. I know the long nights and early mornings wasn’t just a lawyer selling herself she was the lawyer that stood on business and meant what she said. Nina went over and beyond she’s very knowledgeable, Honest, Ethical and very direct. Im very grateful that I found Nina. This experience had its ups and downs but she was always there every step with me. I want to thank her and her Firm a million times for the outstanding work I received from one of the best attorneys. Thank you Nina for everything.
Thank you Ryan Shope for helping me out during this hard process in the dissolution of my marriage. Communication is key and Sterling Lawyers and staff know that and are really good and keeping up with the case and communication is smooth and they will listen and take action based on the concerns you will have. I will 100% recommend Sterling Lawyers!
Competent, trustworthy, same mind

My experience with Sterling was very positive. Katie was on top of everything and we collected many wins during my trials.
I would not recommend Ryan Shope to a friend or family member. Please see my reply below.
I selected Sterling based on the organization’s track record, attorneys’ bios, and educational background. Unfortunately, Ryan’s services did not meet my needs nor did they match her evaluation/bio. When submitting my financial affidavit on time, I assumed the opposing side would do the same at the requested time. I also assumed these documents would be evaluated to determine missing items. I received the counterparty’s document a week after the deadline and I discovered that he listed Bank of America as his bank; however, Credit Union One was listed on his paystub as the source of his direct deposit. I followed up with Ryan requesting these documents. By this time, the opposing side had the advantage of reviewing my financials. When asked for options, I was told litigation would require us both to submit seven years of financials.
Without Ryan’s direction/suggestion, I reached out to a private investigator where it was revealed the counterparty was cohabiting with his partner. Thanks to my reach, maintenance is no longer a financial obligation for me. When I asked if this is something Sterling conducted, I was told: “Many conduct this on their own”. It would be helpful for Sterling to recommend this; it cost me $100 to save years of a potential financial obligation.
Lastly, when I provided an amount for a second offer, I was told it would take a week for Ryan to update the first offer and return it to me for review. I asked “Ryan, are you saying it will take a week to update one number”, she replied, “I will return the final document to you in a few days”.
Honestly, when I first signed up for all of this it all seemed like a fairly quick process. They pretty much guaranteed my mother and me that due to the circumstances that were in place at the time, this divorce was going to be over within a few months, and given all of the articulable facts, in this case, it should have been a “Slam Dunk”. But it was not, and I feel like somewhere along the line the ball was dropped and this should not have taken this long considering the $$ that was spent. So honestly I would give it a 5 or 6/10. Jacqueline was helpful but I don’t think my case was executed with a sense of urgency and then when Phase 1 ended, they had the nerve to try to charge me an extra $10k… For what? No thank you
Excellent throughout my divorce!

My priority was QUICK. She was able to accomplish that for me. Divorced in less than 4 weeks!
I would recommend Katie 10/10 times. I feel that she had an excellent grasp of the relevant law, a sensible approach to conflicted matters, and plenty of experience to support her positions.
