Emily was extremely knowledgeable, thorough professional in everything about our case. She was empathetic to our concerns and feelings.
Emily never hesitated in her responses to our calls, emails or text messages no matter how many times she received communication from us.
She always demonstrated that she had our best interest at the forefront.
Emily Kennedy is a hard working lawyer who strives for excellence for her clients . She thoroughly reviewed my credit reports from the three credit bureaus. She discovered many errors and provided letters for my signature to correct them . My mortgage was included in my bankruptcy and was not being reported since I filed bankruptcy . All payments were paid every month and paid on time . The credit bureaus all responded everything was fine and all errors stayed the same . She followed up three more times with letters for my signature to the credit bureaus . The result was the same each time . She then seeked litigation from the three credit bureaus . She met with all credit bureaus and the mortgage company and the results were in our favor . All errors were corrected and compensation was given due to Emily's persistence and knowledge . Emily more than met our expectations and I would recommend her to anyone who needs her expertise .

One Hell of a Consumer Attorney
From the first day you meet her, she’s 100% on your side. She’s out to win your case & bring you the justice you deserve. She keeps you completely informed every step of the way. She’s compassionate, driven, hard working, & that’s just barely scratching the surface. She handled my case w/ dignity & respect & for that I HAVE to give her a perfect review. Even w/ the outcome not being what she planned, it was one that WORKED for me. Thank you Emily for everything! You rock!
