About
I am a solo-practitioner here to help with Family Law Matters including Divorce, Paternity, Temporary Restraining Orders and the resulting Orders for Protection, Child Support and Enforcement, as well as Pre and Post Nuptial agreements for those trying to stay together and think ahead regarding their finances. I am a local girl, born and raised by a first generation Woman Attorney (Bernice Littman) and a Professor of Classics (Dr. Robert Littman). I am a proud graduate of La Pietra and Univeristy of Hawaii at Manoa including my J.D. from the William S. Richardson School of Law. I have handled hundreds of family law cases with my best grace and wits given the important and heavy subject matter. I have both the life and legal experience to effectively represent my clients with zest and what we Jews like to call Chutzpah. Family Law is a delicate beast and needs to be treated with a level of care as though the Attorney's own life is on the line. These are live cases and I have the wherewithal to treat them as such and assist my Clients to strategize and prepare for the unexpected. I specialize in Military Divorces and when necessary can take a contested, relocation Child Custody Matter to Trial. However, as it takes such an expensive monetary and emotional toll on the Clients to fight over keiki, money, and property, I always attempt and push settlement through discussions and mediation. A Contested Heading at Hawaii Family Court should be a last resort only when all else fails or it is an emergency.

I can't express how grateful I am for Emma. Retaining her for a custody battle that seemed never-ending for years was one of the best decisions I have made. I previously worked with a different party before Emma, and my experience with that firm made me search for another lawyer. I am thankful for that experience because it would not have led me to connect with Emma. Since having Emma represent me, we have been able to close out the custody battle. To this day, I still go to Emma for advice and to address things for me with the other party when it's difficult to agree. Emma has always made herself available to all of my calls, texts, and emails. That's precisely what you need when you're going through a tough time. Any questions I have, she always makes sure to answer. Going to court and fighting for your kids is beyond stressful and can take a toll on a person's mental state and whole being. Emma supported and guided me through every step of the way. Emma is my go-to for everything; she is also my confidant. I appreciate her for all of the advice she has given me and for always ensuring that the outcome sat right with me. It's about my child, and she made it exactly about that! She cares! Emma has been my lawyer for over a year now, and I feel if it weren't for her, I would have ended up with a less favorable outcome. Emma's knowledge, compassion, and integrity are what sets her above the rest. Her strong background in family law, sincere character, and direct communication are superior to others. I strongly recommend her to anyone who is going through a difficult situation. Emma is the person you want to have in your corner! Especially for your kids! It took me a while to write a review for Emma because I still can't put into words what she has done for my family and me. We sincerely thank Emma for her legal expertise, and she is more than a lawyer, a true friend. I am very thankful and appreciate you. I would also like to thank Emma's assistant Anika for continuously streamlining the process and making things a lot simpler than it is. The both of you are a dynamic duo and make a great team!
I’m very grateful to Emma. I was looking for an attorney that was going to fight for what was best for my daughter. Emma did just that when she represented me in a post decree motion initiated by my ex. She’s experienced, knowledgeable and very sharp. She understands complex family dynamics and the psychology of people. She was always steps ahead of my ex’s attorneys (yes, he had two working his case). They were no match for her. In the end, she was able to negotiate a very favorable outcome for me and my daughter. Emma is a fierce attorney and ally. She’s great at what she does because her strong moral compass and integrity guides her. I appreciate that my fight became her fight. If I ever need an attorney again, I would definitely choose Emma to represent me. 100% recommend.
I worked with Emma and her paralegal Anika for my divorce case which ended up being an almost 2 year process. I had to deal with an overbearing and incompetent spouse and let me tell you, Emma and Anika made the process so much easier for me. They took the stress off of my shoulders and I felt I could finally breathe. Both ladies are responsive with any questions or concerns through text and email. Emma is very knowledgeable and highly skilled at what she does. She's understanding and cares for you not just as a client but also as a friend. If you are looking for someone to assist you in not only gaining what you deserve, someone who will fight for you....I highly recommend Emma Littman Baker, as the saying goes "Behind every successful woman is a tribe of other successful women who have her back" and Emma as well as Anika became my tribe during the battle of my most difficult challenge. I am FINALLY happily DIVORCED thanks to the help of these ladies!!!!! Thank you Emma and Anika.
You would think with all of the hard work, dedication, results, and warming care I was shown by Ms. Littman that I would have wrote this review last month when she told me I was finally divorced after a long and agonizing divorce. Every step of the way she fought and explained everything throughly and answered every question I had. I felt confident and secure during the entire process. I didn't worry at all with her lead, knowledge, and professionalism. She had my back 100% even when I didn't have my own. She knows what she is doing and does it from her heart with a side of "Fiesty" and gets things done! Although, I am anti marriage, if I ever needed to get a divorce, I am definitely going straight to Ms. Littman! This took me a while to write because I have a lot to say about Ms. Littman and didn't know how to keep it short. She is truly great! Thank you from the bottom of my heart!
At the time I worked with Ms. Littman I was in the process of retiring from the military. I chose to come to Ms. Littman after my previous attorney made crucial mistakes in my divorce case. Ms. Littman is easy to talk to and very empathetic to your individual needs for a case. She was more of a sister and best friend through this trying time. She kept constant updates and responds to texts or emails within 5-15 minutes of me sending them. My case wasn’t extremely complicated, however the other party basically wanted to hold my kids hostage over not wanting to pay child support. I was awarded sole physical and legal custody of the children, prior to hiring Ms. Littman. Unfortunately, my previous lawyer didn’t include the one little sentence granting me permission to relocate from Hawaii with my children. Ms. Littman is extremely meticulous and detail oriented. She knows family law like no other attorney I’ve spoken (I spoke to a lot). Her office manager Ms. Ramos is amazing as well and communicates just as effectively as Ms. Littman does. Her incite helped me and the other party come to an agreement during mediation which sped up our court hearing. Just recently Ms. Littman was contacted on my behalf and instead of dismissing the call she informed me what was going on. Most lawyers would not do this once their service is over. If I could give her all the stars in the world I would. I was able to keep my children and move all before the pandemic hit and I’m extremely thankful for her. Ms. Littman has been truly amazing to work with and I highly recommend her whether you’re a civilian or serving in the military.
Emma Littman Baker handled my post divorce case that I never thought would reach a resolution. During the 6 months that I worked with Emma, she always made herself available to answer my calls, emails and address all of my concerns with kindness and compassion. Prior to the case, I never had any interaction with an attorney. Emma always took time to explain the process and was always patient with me. She was always there to listen to my concerns and work with me on addressing the many issues that I faced. During a long mediation session that lasted into a late evening, Emma maintained her professionalism and composure after being unjustifiably yelled at by my ex. The way she handled the tense situation is a small testament to her high degree of integrity and professionalism.
I hired Emma to take my divorce case. I normally do not write reviews but I had to let everyone know that if you are looking for a dependable, intelligent , responsible and one that doesn't make you feel like a complete idiot, lawyer for your case, look no further: Emma is the best!! I went to her after my husband served me with papers from his lawyer. She's very knowledgeable with the rules and regulations of the military which helped me a great deal since my ex was high rank. Long story short, she did a fantastic job! She got me what I wanted and deserved after being married to a military soldier for 14+ yrs. I am forever grateful for her hard work and dedication. I would highly recommend Emma R. Littman Baker.
Emma did and great job with a really tough case that ended in annulment. Not only did she navigate her way through the complex Hawaiian divorce court system flawlessly, she used her knowledge and resources to help in every way she possibly could. Professionally no one could have done a better job and on a personal level she took time and energy to go out of her way to understand what was really going on. It's evident that Emma (and the whole firm for that matter) are in this field for the right reasons. She comes highly recommended without any reservations.
Emma Baker by far has to be the best attorney ever. She helped me through one of the roughest times of my life. Emma was always available and accessible to me which made things so much easier, she was VERY knowledgeable, she projected confidence, but not arrogance, in any setting, Emma owned my problems and engendered a belief that she would do everything possible to help me succeed, she was also very courteous, wise and witty. I would without a doubt encourage anyone who has come to the end of their road in marriage to seek counsel with Emma Baker.
I highly recommend Emma Littman Baker for handling any divorce cases. She worked with me for 9 months to reach an agreeable resolution with my X. During each of our interactions, she demonstrated great diligence, perseverance, patience, knowledge, and interpersonal skills with a high degree of proficiency. Either through phone, email, and especially in person, her attention to my situation and sensitivities created an environment where I could calmly and rationally understand my options, the legal process, and move on. Her ability to connect with me during this painful divorce process was fantastic! I was confident, knowing that she would fight for what I needed, in a manner that was both beneficial for me and for my children… and she did, thanks Emma!
