If you need legal assistance for a family law matter, the last thing you’re looking for is a traditional law firm. Heavy oak panels, brass plates and blue suits can be pretty intimidating when you’re in the midst of a crisis, especially if you’ve never had to hire a lawyer before. Fortunately, Sternberg Law Office defies expectations. Our space is comfortable and inviting, not formal and pretentious. Our goal when you visit is to develop a rapport that encourages trust, honesty and candor, and hints at the compassionate counsel and dedicated representation you can expect if you become a client. As a solo practitioner, Susanne Sternberg is able to offer individualized client contact and personalized attention. She goes by “Susanne” or “Sue,” not Ms. Sternberg, and talks with clients in the same manner she talks with friends — casually, in plain English, not legalese, and not from a position of superiority. While relaxed on a personal level, she strives for perfection in her work.
