Sarah M. Hoffman

Competent and knowledgeable, but communication could improve

I engaged Sarah Hoffman at Bassford Remele for a complex professional liability matter related to a healthcare contract dispute. With her 17 years of experience and recognition in Litigation - Health Care, I was confident in her technical expertise, and that confidence was largely justified. Her analysis of the medical malpractice and personal injury defense aspects of our case was thorough, clearly drawing on her deep background in these areas. She is undoubtedly a sharp legal mind. However, the experience was not without its frustrations. While the substantive work was solid, communication was sometimes slower than I would have preferred. There were periods where I felt I had to follow up multiple times for updates, which created some anxiety during a stressful process. Her legal strategy was sound, but managing client expectations around timelines and response windows seemed to be an area for improvement. For someone seeking a highly skilled attorney in Minneapolis for defense-side healthcare or personal injury litigation, Sarah Hoffman is a capable choice. You will receive competent representation from a Best Lawyers-recognized professional. Just be prepared to be proactive in staying informed and understand that the pace of communication may not always match the urgency you feel as a client.
