About Sarah Aminzadeh Milinsky

Sarah Aminzadeh Milinsky helps individuals and parents navigate divorce with a focus on protecting their children, preserving important relationships and reaching practical agreements without unnecessary conflict. Based in Goranson Bain Ausley’s Plano office, she works particularly well with couples who recognize that their marriage is ending but want to approach divorce respectfully and maintain a healthy co-parenting relationship.

As an active Collaborative Divorce practitioner, Sarah believes families benefit from retaining control over decisions about their children and finances. Through interest-based negotiation, she helps clients move beyond immediate disagreements, identify their priorities and develop solutions tailored to their family’s circumstances. This approach is particularly valuable for parents who must continue making decisions together long after their divorce is final.

With an undergraduate degree in psychology, Sarah understands the emotional challenges that can make divorce difficult. She brings a calm, thoughtful approach to her work, helping clients stay focused on their priorities rather than allowing conflict to drive the process. She is attentive to preparation, communication and efficiency, recognizing that unnecessary delays and disputes can take both a financial and emotional toll.

Sarah guides clients through Collaborative Divorce, mediation and negotiated settlements, with the goal of reaching agreements that work for the entire family. When litigation is necessary, she is prepared to advocate for her clients in court.
