Sarah Griffin is an associate for Griffin & Matthews working in the areas of wills, estates and probate, as well as corporate and business transactions, real estate, and employment law.  

Sarah attended the University of Mississippi where she received a Bachelor of Arts in English/Literature and Spanish in 2006.  She received her Juris Doctorate from St. Mary’s University School of Law in San Antonio, Texas in 2010. Before joining Griffin & Matthews, Sarah was with the St. Mary’s Center for Legal and Social Justice where her service and commitment to her clients earned her a Pro Bono Achievement Award.

Sarah enjoys spending time with her kids and family, loves sipping wine with good friends, and never turns down a chance to watch a good baseball game. In her travels, Sarah has run with the bulls in Pamplona and climbed Mt. Kilimanjaro, although these days, the beautiful chaos of raising three kids is thrill enough.

Sarah is enthusiastic about her work and loves her clients. She believes personal connection is the key to customized service. Whether it be through tough times or times of progress and development, she is committed to facilitating and guiding each of her clients towards their legal objective.
