About Sarina

Sarina Hager is an experienced, passionate attorney who proudly serves the Tyler, TX and East Texas community.

As a Tyler attorney, Sarina Hager has been licensed to practice since 1993. Having spent the past 12 years in the city of Tyler, Sarina loves the Tyler community and is happy to serve its members.

Sarina has many years of experience as an attorney, and she’s practiced across several branches of the law. For example, some of her earliest experiences as an attorney included practicing corporate law for Blue Cross Blue Shield. Though Sarina primarily practices family law now, she pulls from all of her experiences as she fights for children and families.

In addition to her decades of legal experience, Sarina brings plenty of other relevant experience to the table, including:

Nonprofit Management
Leadership Training
Christian Ministry
Fundraising and Event Planning
Foster Parenting
PTA Leadership

All of these experiences inform Sarina’s work as an attorney, a leader, and a shepherd for her community.

Family Law

Family law is Sarina’s biggest focus and passion. Her family law practice includes all of the following areas:

Adoptions
Stepparent adoptions
Divorce
Child custody disputes
Modifications of existing child custody agreements
SAPCR (suit affecting the parent-child relationship)
CPS investigations and child reunification efforts
Ad-Litem and Amicus services

Family law is perhaps the most complex form of law. When legal cases involve children and families, the people affected by the suit need a strong but caring attorney who values peace but is also not afraid to fight. Sarina’s wisdom and compassion have made her a highly-sought-after choice when it comes to family law. That’s why many of her clients have recommended her to others.

Child Advocacy Always

When you look for an attorney who practices family law, you want someone who values family and children above everything else. As a mom of six, Sarina is passionate about child advocacy. In fact, child advocacy is in everything Sarina does, even when she’s off the clock. When representing you or your family, Sarina will always put your children’s best interests first. Her biggest concern in any family law situation is what’s best for the children.

Most of the people who approach Sarina are going through a difficult time — often the most difficult time of their lives.

Sarina Hager has been an exemplary attorney and advocate for us and our son when going through custody court. She maintains a professional yet compassionate demeanor and will work long hours to prepare for court. She exceeded our expectations when we were unexpectedly taken back to court for a custody modification suit. A suit in which we ended up going from a 50/50 order and with her help we ended up with primary custody and serving the best interest of our son!

-Mark Davis

I recently went through a divorce and we chose to hire Sarina as our attorney. She actually just represented me but my ex-husband and I had pretty well agreed on everything upfront so Sarina was kind enough to meet with both of us each time. Sarina was so sweet and caring and made the process as painless as possible. Everything was done in a timely manner and she was very detail-oriented, addressing each one of our needs. We really appreciated her kindness, professionalism, and advice. Divorce is so difficult, no matter the circumstance and I’m so glad that I chose Sarina to represent me during this time as it was a perfect fit.

-Kelly Brooks

I hired Sarina very quickly after an unexpected custody modification. I was terrified and worried and Sarina was so understanding. She fit me in to have an appointment and then worked non-stop to help me through a very scary process. She advocated strongly for me and my children. She always had their best interest at heart and always reassured me when I had my moments of fear and doubt. She was responsive and would even email me on weekends or after hours as needed. She is very detail oriented and helped me catch little details in our orders to protect me and my children from future litigation. She advocated for me very well in mediation and helped me to understand the ins and outs of my custody orders so I could continue to protect myself and my children. She was well prepared and kept a case file with her when we were in mediation. I would absolutely recommend others in the situation I was in to contact Sarina. She helped me through a very painful and scary time in my life with compassion and understanding and she fought for me and my children with dignity.
