Amazing representation

Jaime was an amazing part of the team that resulted in a good result in a very difficult, long divorce. She was very kind, positive and considerate through some of the very hardest moments. Highly recommend her as an attorney and addition to a litigation team!

Job well done

Lawyer did exemplary work in consulting on case matter. Well versed in knowledge and research based on pending issues that I was facing. Made things to be very relatable and broke down the legal jargon to be understandable into everyday language. Highly professional with emphasis of showing g...reat concern to me and responsiveness to concerns and questions that arose.

Would hire again

I hired Ms. Ember to represent my son and was extremely satisfied with her services. Ms. Ember explained the judicial process and what we should expect. Everything Ms. Ember said she would accomplish was done. I observed Ms. Ember's professionalism and her compassion to my child's case. I definitely ...recommend Ms. Ember and would hire her again.

A knowledgeable and reassuring presence...

Ms. Ember is a knowledgeable and reassuring presence in what can be a confusing maze of working with an attorney. In our experience, she made the extra effort to fully research my daughter’s legal situation and make helpful suggestions. She has a warm and compassionate nature which makes her able t...o attend to not only the legal aspects but also the emotional needs of her clients. She took the time to explain, in layman’s terms, all that was happening in preparation for and appearing in court. We always felt comfortable contacting her with our many questions. Her clear explanations helped relieve some of the anxiety of the unknown. Making sure we were comfortable in understanding seemed to be her priority. She makes an endearing connection with young people and offers expertise based on personal experience. We were very fortunate to have Ms. Ember in our corner!

  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
