What Other Lawyers Are Saying About Jeff

Thomas Hartin

Jeff Hughes is both brilliant and incredibly kind. I am in the process of building my own family law firm and have been consulting with him for over six months now. Jeff and his team at Sterling Lawyers have collected an enormous amount of data that enables them to handle family law cases, from simple to complex, on a flat fee basis. As you can tell from their numerous reviews, clients of Sterling Lawyers are thrilled with this fee arrangement. The legal profession, and in particular, the family law legal profession, would be a much better place if everyone were as generous with their information and time as Jeff.

I have found the information Jeff Hughes shares to be extremely helpful as I continue to work to grow my business. It seems like every mistake I have made, he has also made and I learn a lot from listening to how he methodically solves the problems his firm is facing. In all my time knowing Jeff and his very real sharing of what he has done to grow his firm, I have not heard of a problem that he had that I have not had. Family law firms regardless of size face the same challenges every day and he is trying to help everyone excel.

I am truly grateful to Jeff and his team for their incredible generosity, sharing with the family law community their impressive journey, their wins, their losses, and the lessons derived therefrom. Their commitment to, and success with, growth, while maintaining high standards in client representation is amazing. During my 30 years of practice as a NY-based matrimonial attorney, (during which I built a significantly smaller family law firm solely based on reputation and referrals), I have worked extensively with professional coaches on the business of law, and have coached other lawyers. The success of the Sterling Law Group is unmatched and we all can benefit from their insights.
