Professor Sullivan worked as a Staff Attorney from 1997-2001 and a Senior Staff Attorney with Jacksonville Area Legal Aid, Inc. from 2005-July, 2009. As a Senior Staff Attorney, Professor Sullivan created a regional legal services project in Northeast Florida serving individuals with developmental disabilities.
The only one of its kind in Florida, the project defends disabled individuals against denials, terminations or reductions of their essential services. In 2001, Professor Sullivan represented the South Carolina Department of Social Services in abuse and neglect cases before the Charleston County Family Court.
While in Charleston, Professor Sullivan collaborated with the judiciary, pro bono lawyers, and social service agencies to create South Carolina’s first family recovery court for drug-dependent parents and their children. The Court provided a meaningful chance for recovery to participants while teaching the tools necessary to lead a drug-free functional lifestyle to maximize the best interests of children.
Professor Sullivan practiced family law with the Clekis Law Firm, Inc. and general civil practice in her own firm, Sarah Sullivan Law, LLC prior to relocating back to her hometown of Jacksonville in 2005. She currently leads the Disability and Public Benefits Clinic at Florida Coastal.
