What Our Clients Say

I hired Sterling Law Offices to handle my Petition for Contribution to College Expenses against my irresponsible, derelict ex-husband, so that our brilliant daughter (whom he does not deserve) could attend college, as she deserves. 🙂 Nina Kelly, Esq. handled my case professionally, competently, and compassionately. I was very happy with her work throughout the process, and with the outcome of the case. Having been through a hellish, drawn-out divorce, lawyers have not always been my favorite people. However, Nina communicated well with me and helped to make the process as painless as possible. I definitely wish she had been my divorce attorney! I wouldn't hesitate to hire her again, although I hope I won't have to!
I also appreciated Sterling's fixed fee schedule, which really helped me know what I was getting into financially from the beginning.

I worked with Holly Mullin at Sterling Lawyers to mediate a divorce. She was so knowledgeable and helpful. Our case resulted in minimal conflict, quick agreements, and we both felt Holly sought what was fair and right for everyone involved. I would highly recommend her for mediation or personal representation. Everything was documented and filed correctly and Holly made a hard and stressful situation easier!

My team of attorneys were simply AMAZING! They stuck with me through a grueling 2 1/2 year divorce with some serious financial dispute issues.

I will recommend Sterling to anyone that will listen 🤍

I really liked Tiffany, but I found that I really had to be in almost constant contact with her when an issue came up. She seemed to let things sit for a bit when notified of a new issue.

My attorney Nikole Messerschmidt was very professional. She took the time to find out everything about my case. Always made time to answer all my questions. Explained the divorce process thoroughly so I knew what to expect. Because of Nikole's hard work I received a very fair settlement for which I am very grateful. Thank you Nikole for all you did for me!

Recommend her to anyone!!!!!

Divorce is a difficult and challenging time. Navigating this period while limiting the impact to children’s schedules and work commitments is critical. Attorney Rhodeman made this transitional period seamless. She was available and responsive to all and any questions that arose. Her professional and personable approach allowed me to focus on things outside of the divorce. Very pleased with the outcome, service, and support that Attorney Rhodeman provided.

Kindness, care, professionalism, communication, education and preparation for what to expect

Holly was graceful, poised, and available for us during our time with Sterling.

I rarely recommend anything or anyone to other people. Just in case. It's just me. . .

Very good meeting. A lot of helpful information. Michelle made me feel that I was in good hands. Very educated

Ellen was fantastic! She was kind, thorough and made me feel heard. Divorce is a tedious, frustrating, expensive process but Ellen was patient with me during all the ups and downs. She did what she said she was going to do when she said she was going to do it. I would definitely recommend her. I could’ve never done this without her.

My attorney Bailey was an amazing lawyer she really helped me with my case. I’m so appreciative of her and all of her help!

Attorney Tiffany Biedermann did a phenomenal job with my divorce case. She took the time to explain things in "next steps" order so we both knew what was happening and we had a plan. Attorney Biedermann is very thorough, professional, and personable. I would highly recommend her to anyone who needs her expertise!

Frustration – anger – confusion – grief – alone: These and many other emotions swirled in my head at the initial stages of this unfortunate life change and I imagine mirror the experiences of others. The chaos that you are thrown into during a divorce is overwhelming and increased by the myriad decisions that must be made throughout the process. That is why I am so grateful for the support of Atty Holly Mullin and the team with Sterling Lawyers. After allowing me the time to share the details and emotional struggles, the options were explained clearly and concisely. How to proceed was always my decision, but Atty Mullin was ready to share perspectives and offer guidance from her and her team's experience. Through that guidance, a mediated/low conflict divorce was organized; and though it was agreed that separate consul would manage the mediation process, Atty Mullin was always at hand to address my questions, review the materials, offer further guidance, and to listen if I needed a moment to talk. As with any career role, seeing the same issue day-after-day but with different faces attached can make that issue routine. It is reasonable that this would also be true for divorce attorneys – but not with Holly. Her being objective, instructive, understanding, and most importantly, "present" provided much needed assurance and comfort during a time that was anything but.
