Ms. Kristen Munoz

I've been working with Emily for child custody cases for both of my children with separate father's, so we dealt with different judges and attorneys. It was and had been very complicated and intense cases, ongoing for the past 8 years. I've had to spend so much time in the courthouse watching unrela...ted court cases waiting for my trials. I have literally seen the judge telling attorneys in an unrelated case to consult with Emily for advice because they were struggling and he had full confidence in her knowledge because of a previous case she was involved in. Not only did this give me hope and more confidence in her (both things I already had) but it put fear into the opposing side as well. She is the BEST attorney I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with (I've had 9) and I have grown to love her as a dear friend as well. She will be honest and tell you like it is in a compassionate way, because, unlike most attorneys, she really cares. I absolutely LOVE this woman.

A powerhouse attorney

Emily Sutton Dezio has helped me with 3 separate cases. I truly believe Emily is a great asset to the community to have such a talented attorney working for you. She’s intelligent, savvy, no nonsense tell you like it is, resourceful, extremely knowledgeable, a great communicator, but at the same ti...me is a very caring woman with a huge heart who gets the job done. She is a great combination of professionalism and empathy which was needed in my experiences with family law. She’s a powerhouse and is money well spent for her services. I would use Emily Sutton Dezio again and again in a heartbeat and would highly recommend her to anyone in need of a family attorney.

Professional and knows the law

This is the attorney you want to represent you-she is not timid or shy when it comes to representing you in the courtroom and very straight forward with legal knowledge to back your case up-you will not get pushed around with her representing you

Emily is a Power Attorney- make no mistake about it. The best representation you will find.

I had an incredibly complicated case that nobody in the local legal community was willing to touch. Emily not only took my case, but won my case- against nearly insurmountable odds. Not only is Emily in possession of impeccable legal knowledge but her ethics are beyond compare. She advocates fiercely... for her clients and her and her staff sincerely care about the very serious issues they handle for the people they serve. Emily and her assistant went out of their way to make themselves available whenever I had a question or concern and met every challenge with dedication and finesse. A true star in the legal community, I can't speak highly enough of this woman or what she did in order to help my family and I. AAA+++

Amazing Lawyer!

Emily Dezio is the best! After speaking to many different lawyers regarding my case, it was Emily that made me feel secure in my decisions. She not only provided reasonable rates, but constantly consulted with me through emails about my case.. My only regret is that I didn't have her sooner!. After o...riginally having my case handled by someone else and receiving an appeal, Emily did a great job at handling my appeal! I would highly recommend her, especially for appeals!
