I had a difficult, complex case. Emily was gracious and knowledgeable. She knows the system, courts, and how things operate. she has plenty of experience. She was helpful on all fronts. She was what every client wants. Someone who will advocate for you. Someone who will get you results! I was able to gain custody of my 3 daughters despite many false claims throughout the process. I'm very grateful to Emily for working with me and she was great to work with. You can be candid with her. She would always give me a chance to give my input or idea in a situation. she was responsive. And I certainly could not have been successful without her help. She was empathetic and genuinely cared!

I wish I could give more stars for Emily. She is an amazing attorney. Going through a divorce I found Emily after I hired an attorney who was so disorganized and non caring of my case which the ex wife attorney took advantage of. I found Emily who was happy to jump on and re start the divorce process for me and man was I lucky to have found her. She went right to work and definitely made things very fair which helped move the case along smoothly but was absolutely making sure things that I requested were met. She was always aware of the case and responded to me very quickly. Emily was always there when I had a question and very quickly has answers for me. She even responded to me while she was on vacation. That is just the start of how committed she is to her Clients and how she is always there to put your mind at ease. During the entire process you can see that Emily is fast to get things done and even pushing the other side to get moving. If you hire Emily you will not be disappointed at all. She is amazing to work with.!!!! Hiring Emily was one of the best choices I have made.

Emily was very helpful with the process of filing our divorce paperwork. She walked us through each step, kept us updated via email (our preferred method of communication), and was timely in her responses to our questions.

Emily was the perfect fit for our mediation! We wanted someone who could make sense of the process and provide the best insight into how to file for and implement a divorce that did not include litigation. We trusted her all along. She was transparent and thorough, and she is also very personable and kind human being.

Emily is a Gem! I was going through a stressful divorce and her calmness and expertise made everything so easy and less stressful. I could not have asked for a better lawyer I call her my " Superwoman"

Emily has truly been a blessing in disguise for me. A divorce is something no one should have to go through, but she made this process so simple. I am beyond grateful for all she has done to make sure this divorce was completed as efficiently as possible. Even through this pandemic she made sure to get things done for my case. Even her prices were more reasonable than I had expected. Look no farther, Emily is definitely the person you need on your case, she is trustworthy, steadfast, honest, dependable, devoted and committed to her work.

I hired Emily due to her combination of being a lawyer with an additional background as a Therapist. I really needed someone with patience and empathy in a custody case involving my son. Emily was consistent in her moving us to a best outcome. I wasn't interested in just winning the case- I wanted what would be best for my son and having Emily's more nuanced and concerned approach was important in the process. She leveraged her background to give me a more balanced and sane approach to the very stressful process. I would recommend Emily highly for anyone in need of a lawyer that can handle emotionally complex cases with family where there is a need for healthy outcome.
