Emily Cooper was very knowledgeable and helpful with the case to retain custody of my son. I have an intellectual disability and she was very, very patient with me as she explained what I needed to do and to provide in order to appear in court. I will go to her firm again if the need arises.

Emily not only provided me with excellent legal representation from start to finish; she also was instrumental with helping me find my voice and confidence following a difficult divorce. When I hired Emily, she was open and honest about her approach, delivered the facts, fought hard for me, was patient with me and helped me to understand my rights. She took time to answer my questions and settle my fears. A courtroom can be intimidating and with her by my side, I always felt I was in good hands. Her representation made all the difference for the end result where we "won" a long battle. She was also conscious of fees and never over-charged. It has been a couple years since winning our case and I will forever be grateful to her for not only her hard work and professionalism, but also for her humanity. She treated me with such patience, dignity and respect, never talking down to me. I never felt like just a "case". I would recommend Emily to anyone in need of legal representation. She knows her stuff, cares about her clients, is professional yet human, is tough, fact-based and will fight for what is right. Because of Emily, I feel a renewed sense of hope and faith that with persistence and patience, the right people come along who will stand by and with you for what is right and just.

Emily asked me to write a review on her website. I did but I’m doing it here again too. A little about myself. I’m a type A, workaholic person. I don’t believe in leaving your job until the job is done. I’m sure Emily got tired of my endless questions and frustration at the legal system. But her and her associate worked with me. My ex just kept coming at, and this time she lost. I would try and try to talk with her about unaccompanied minor status, and it was always no or some other time. We finally took her back to court when mediation was not going to work. Not only did we get unaccompanied minor, but the entire summer. Remember guys, the victory is always worth the struggle. I’ve learned immediate results do not constitute poor work ethic. Emily and Whitney are amazing. I will keep paying Emily because my ex will never leave me alone. Hire these two, they know how to win.

I hired Emily two years ago in an effort to lower my child support. Since that time she has kept the child support at a moderate level and kept my ex wife at an arms reach while another legal matter is being taken care of to better provide for my child. Emily is a fantastic attorney that continues to fight for the little guy in a court system that is not always on the fathers side. Thank you do much for helping me and my little girl out while at times I might not have always been the easiest client to work with.

I hired Emily after being served court papers from my child's father who hadn't been around in 6 years and all of a sudden wanted joint custody. Emily listened while I explained my situation to her, she then took matters into her own hands and made this horrible process seem so simple. I did nothing, but followed her directions ( be polite and document everything ). With all of Emily's help I won that battle and he was not granted joint custody & he was order to pay child support as well and that's not why we initially went to court. Emily is GREAT at what she does and without her I'm not sure how that situation would've turned out. Anytime anyone asks me if I know a good attorney I always refer them to her. I'd hire her again without a doubt!

This is a great lawyer. My ex wife had somehow gotten my child support raised to $1000 a month. My first lawyer, which I will be writing a review on him shortly, did nothing but cost me $10000. Emily not only got my child support dropped in half, but got 90% of arrearers dropped. Great lawyer and will continue to pay her to create a war chest as my ex will never go away. Hire her. She is worth it.
