On arriving in New York City, Sandy became associated with the firm Lipsig, Sullivan and Liapakis, then the largest plaintiff’s personal injury firm in the City of New York.

“Ms. Hill – Words cannot fully express our gratitude…. When others did not believe, you saw hope and took on the case, when it seemed all was failing you found ways to turn things around…“– J. Rivera
“I was referred to the Hill and Moin law firm around 8 years ago. From the moment I walked into their office and was greeted by the receptionist I was in awe. I couldn’t believe how welcoming they were, especially to a complete stranger. The aura just gave me such a euphoric feeling. I knew right away that I was dealing with real people! Their business practices, knowledge and proficiency while dealing with my unique case was outstanding. One of the rare key character traits I recognize in Sandy and Cheryl is that they don’t do anything in a standard form. They go above and beyond with every single detail. The entire team at the firm are so efficient and gifted its mind blowing. I’ve maintained a solid relationship with them throughout the years because they treated me like family from day one. I am forever grateful for their practice and the bond that we have. I truly believe they set out to give everyone the ultimate experience.” – R. Leggett
