    ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE! There is NO WAY to describe the HORRIBLE way we were treated by Sterling Hughes, L.L.C. After being a client since 2019 who had always paid our bills on time we were informed by that our Attorney had been released (fired) from the firm. This event happened one and a half weeks before a second Scheduled Mediation session in an extremely contentious and very expensive divorce proceeding on which we had been jointly preparing for several months. Sterling told us via email that they did not have any other Attorney whose “Case Load” would allow them to take over the case and provide legal support in the scheduled Mediation session and beyond. Sterling has since filed legal papers with the Court system saying they no longer represent us and have returned all case files via email. To say this was a HORRIBLE ending to a five year relationship with Sterling Hughes would clearly be the “Understatement of the Year!” I would strongly recommend that anyone needing legal representation in the ******* area, stay as far away from Sterling Hughes, L.L.C. as possible.

    We sincerely apologize for the experience you've described and the frustration and distress it has caused you. At Sterling Lawyers, it is our utmost priority to provide supportive, reliable, and continuous legal assistance to our clients, especially during such critical points in their legal journeys. The situation you've encountered falls short of the high standards we set for client care and service.

    We understand that the timing and the manner in which the changes were communicated and handled have significantly impacted your trust in us and your ongoing legal proceedings. This is deeply regrettable, and not reflective of our passion for helping improve family legal services for our clients. We genuinely value the relationship we've had since 2019, and it is distressing to hear that it has ended in such a manner.

    Please rest assured, this situation warrants a thorough review on our part to understand the breakdowns in communication and process, and to implement necessary changes to ensure this does not happen again to you or any other client.

    Though words might provide little solace for the inconvenience and upset this has caused, we extend our sincerest apologies and are committed to learning from this. If there's an opportunity to assist you further or address any unresolved issues, we would welcome the chance to do so.
