Attorney
Sara was born in Peru but grew up in Texas near the Texas-Mexico border. After high school Sara moved to St. Louis where she attended and graduated from Washington University with a Bachelor of Arts in Latin American Studies. Afterwards she moved to Washington D.C. where she received her Certificate in Health Policy from George Washington University Milken Institute School of Public Health. While in Washington D.C. she served as the Membership and Communications Coordinator for the National Hispanic Medical Association. After several years in Washington D.C. Sara returned to St. Louis to attend Saint Louis University School of Law, where she earned her Juris Doctorate (Law Degree). While in law school, Sara interned for Legal Services of Eastern Missouri in their Medical-Legal Partnership Unit and for the Texas Rio Grande Legal Aid in their Farmworker Law team.
Sara’s time in law school then as a law clerk and now as a licensed associate attorney have instilled in her a love for helping people and her successful experience aggressively advocating for the victimized and disadvantaged has more than adequately prepared her to fight for the legal rights of all of her clients now. Prior to joining the Law Offices of Roderick C. White, Sara was an associate at another thriving St. Louis-area law firm, where she gained extensive valuable legal experience in criminal defense, traffic law, automobile accidents, workers’ compensation, and family law.
Because Sara is licensed by the Supreme Court of Missouri, she is eligible to practice in all state courts throughout the great state of Missouri. She is also a member of the Bar Association of Metropolitan St. Louis (BAMSL) and the Hispanic Bar Association of St. Louis. When Sara is not working, she enjoys spending time with her family, reading, and dancing.
After being struck by an uninsured driver, I felt like I had nowhere to turn. Sara, with the Law Office of Roderick C. White not only helped me navigate the uninsured motorist claim but also ensured I received compensation for my injuries and vehicle damage. Her expertise and support were invaluable during a very stressful time.

After my child was injured at a daycare center, I felt lost and overwhelmed. Sara, was very compassionate and not only provided legal guidance but also emotional support. She secured a settlement that ensured my child’s future needs were fully covered.
