We used Emily for a custody case and she was awesome! She always pushes for what is best for the child, gave great sense advice, dod no charge us a fortune. Honest, Intelligent, caring, well respected in the court system, communicated very well and dod not nickel and dime us.
I've been working with Emily for child custody cases for both of my children with separate father's, so we dealt with different judges and attorneys. It was and had been very complicated and intense cases, ongoing for the past 8 years. I've had to spend so much time in the courthouse watching unrelated court cases waiting for my trials. I have literally seen the judge telling attorneys in an unrelated case to consult with Emily for advice because they were struggling and he had full confidence in her knowledge because of a previous case she was involved in. Not only did this give me hope and more confidence in her (both things I already had) but it put fear into the opposing side as well. She is the BEST attorney I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with (I've had 9) and I have grown to love her as a dear friend as well. She will be honest and tell you like it is in a compassionate way, because, unlike most attorneys, she really cares. I absolutely LOVE this woman.
Emily Sutton Dezio has helped me with 3 separate cases. I truly believe Emily is a great asset to the community to have such a talented attorney working for you. She’s intelligent, savvy, no nonsense tell you like it is, resourceful, extremely knowledgeable, a great communicator, but at the same time is a very caring woman with a huge heart who gets the job done. She is a great combination of professionalism and empathy which was needed in my experiences with family law. She’s a powerhouse and is money well spent for her services. I would use Emily Sutton Dezio again and again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a family attorney.
This is the attorney you want to represent you-she is not timid or shy when it comes to representing you in the courtroom and very straight forward with legal knowledge to back your case up-you will not get pushed around with her representing you
I had an incredibly complicated case that nobody in the local legal community was willing to touch. Emily not only took my case, but won my case- against nearly insurmountable odds. Not only is Emily in possession of impeccable legal knowledge but her ethics are beyond compare. She advocates fiercely for her clients and her and her staff sincerely care about the very serious issues they handle for the people they serve. Emily and her assistant went out of their way to make themselves available whenever I had a question or concern and met every challenge with dedication and finesse. A true star in the legal community, I can't speak highly enough of this woman or what she did in order to help my family and I. AAA+++
Emily Dezio is the best! After speaking to many different lawyers regarding my case, it was Emily that made me feel secure in my decisions. She not only provided reasonable rates, but constantly consulted with me through emails about my case.. My only regret is that I didn't have her sooner!. After originally having my case handled by someone else and receiving an appeal, Emily did a great job at handling my appeal! I would highly recommend her, especially for appeals!
Emily Dezio is a wonderful caring person. I recently had a consult with her, but unfortunately she was unable to take my case because she did not deal in the type of case I needed. She was honest and upfront with me and made several recommendations of good attorneys she felt could help me with my needs. She even contacted an attorney about my case without me even having to ask her. She went above and beyond and I wasn't even her client. I can only imagine what she would do for you if you were an actual client she could help! Emily Dezio is the type of attorney and person I would want in my corner. Thank you Emilly for being so compassionate and helping me the best way you could! I wish you all the best in the future!
Emily has been representing me in post divorce land/property settlement, along with getting the ex-wifes demands for life long alimony agreement reduced to reasonable time limit through great negotiation skills, knowledge of the law, and she can stealthily go toe-to-toe with any lawyer out there! She can and will get to the gritty, and appropriately keep a fair and balanced set tone, and cleverly turn the tides when dealing with the 'less than scrupulous'. She is very communicable, keeps me completely informed and stays on course. You'll never go wrong with Emily Sutton Dezio!
I first heard about Mrs. Dezio a year ago when experiencing frustration with my prior attorneys in my custody case. I heard about an outcome in one of her cases and immediately contacted her. My custody case was interstate, although the District Court of Transylvania in North Carolina retained jurisdiction, so the last few years involved multiple trips for court hearings and eventually resulted in a very negative ruling that took primary custody from me and awarded it to my ex-husband, whose objective and behavior was entirely vindictive. I immediately moved back to North Carolina in order to be near my two sweet boys. As a medical transcriptionist employed from my home, I had always been present for them and we have a wonderful relationship. My ex-husband, who is German, filed a motion to terminate and various other complaints to harass me. By the time I got to Mrs. Dezio's office, I had two accordion files and an overwhelming amount of evidence and a very unappealing case. She sifted through loads of information, was able to grasp the picture quickly, and immediately developed a realistic approach. Mrs. Dezio was not optimistic about my case and did not promise me an amazing outcome. She told me realistically what she believed she could accomplish and worked hard to that end. She kept her office visits to a minimum so I wouldn't have to pay over my retainer; however, kept me informed of events as they progressed. I worked for an attorney in Georgia, and know that some attorneys wait until the last minute to file things. Emily filed all of my answers and motions in a timely manner without my having to ask. They were a jump ahead of opposing counsel in every way. While I have had prior attorneys who accepted sums of money but were very ineffective, Mrs. Dezio's fees were reasonable, not exorbitant, and worth every penny. While in this changing economy many attorney's take advantage of clients to inflate billable hours and increase their bottom line, Mrs. Dezio's bottom line is concern to be the best advocate she can for her client, and that is rare in today's society. As I take my children to soccer games or play with them at the park, I am so thankful to have joint custody of my children in an arrangement that allows them to spend time with both parent and reduces conflict to them. They are the sunshine of my life! Mrs. Dezio's extensive of knowledge of family law and respect in the court system achieved the best possible outcome for me and my boys after years of litigation. Not only would I recommend her to others for either custody or appeals, she is the ONLY attorney I would recommend in Western North Carolina . . . .
For several years Emily Dezio has been involved in a very contentious custody case involving my son. Through changes in county jurisdictions, numerous judges, setbacks and the "politics of the legal system", her determination was to win and to be a caring person beyond the role of attorney. Those that give her a less than superior grade as their attorney need to look in their own back yards as to the cause of the problem. It was likely not Emily! Ken
