This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Highly Recommend

Emily was one of my attorneys while she was at a law firm in Northern, VA. Emily represented and assisted me in a very complex custody/visitation case and also a child support case. She was in the process of assisting and representing me in the defense of another related case prior to her departure o...f the firm and Northern, VA area. Emily is sharp, personable, detail oriented and remembers the little things which I found extremely helpful and impressive. I truly felt that the best interest of myself and my child were her priority. I would and will always recommend her to anyone in need of an attorney for custody/visitation/support, etc.

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • 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.
