Professional and Personal

Ms. Yu was selected as my divorce council. I interviewed several lawyers before selecting Ms. Yu. Our discussions were professional, matter of fact, and direct. She was very conscientious of the process as well as how difficult divorce can be. Her approach was very much appreciated. My own opinio...n is that she approaches each case based on its unique conditions and acts appropriately. Meaning she will fight hard when it is required but also not antagonize opposing parties and create additional animosity where it could become counter productive. I appreciated her oversight through a process I never wanted to be involved in - but was forced into, and believe the outcome was the best it could have been given the circumstances.

From misery to happiness in 30 days!

Where do I begin? On an impulse, I married someone that I met on the internet who claimed to be of my faith. I am not a victim, as I accept my stupidity in this matter. For three years, I felt trapped and tormented by a person who was, of course, not what I thought he was via internet. It’s so stra...nge because I do not consider myself an idiot. This situation compromised my ability to have friends, happiness, religion, and lastly, self esteem. My life evolved into pure misery as I was the provider and my animals were sad too. Finally, after three years of constant lies from my so-called husband, and finding him on dating sites talking to other women, I decided to divorce him. A good friend recommend Emily YU. Hiring her to be my attorney was the best decision that I have made in over three years!!! She was immediately on my side. For once in three years, I felt like I had someone who would listen to me. She was someone I could trust. She took. My case and handled it with complete professionalism. This woman takes charge of her clients, and she made me feel secure. I stopped worrying at night. Finally, I could sleep. She had me divorced in a snap. We didn’t even have to go to court. Hopefully, I will never need another divorce. If you feel trapped, disrespected, exhausted, or just loathe your spouse, please call Emily and her team. Erin Fox , her assistant, was also an incredible person to have on my side. Thank you Emily YU for setting me free. Today life is happy and back to walking dogs and doing hair with a smile on my face! You know when you’re in a bad marriage when you are sitting next to your spouse and you can’t even stand to feel his energy. When it’s time, do not hesitate to call Emily Yu! Thank YU!

Senior Executive

Emily represented me in my divorce suit. From beginning to end, she did an excellent job gathering and presenting the evidence. Her rational and strategic thinking is exceptional and she is extremely effective in keeping discussions on topic effectively to a desired conclusion. Emily maintains a r...espected presence among the courts and her peers, and she is not afraid to push back with the appropriate amount of force and professionalism. Additionally, Emily was always conscious of and sought steps to keep my legal fees at a minimum and on an as needed basis only. I highly recommend Emily without reservation.

So impressed........

Emily Yu is a very caring, professional and thorough attorney. Divorces are usually difficult times for us. Emily's guidance and willingness to listen to what I wanted to accomplish was beyond what I expected. Even though my spouse opted not to seek representation, Emily reached out to him to speed... up his response to my divorce proceedings, while letting him know that she was "my" attorney and could not advocate for him in any way. She was very professional and expedited paperwork so that I could move forward quickly. Within 5 months, all was said and done. She didn't tack on unnecessary time and directed the work to her paralegals and assistants so I wouldn't incure a huge bill. Her staff was professional as well. I can only assume that she leads by example. A lot of attorneys will stretch things out, so to speak. Not the case here at all. She was honest, fair and accommodating when needed. I highly recommend her services. She made a situation that was unpleasant, a very doable scenario. Thank you Emily!!
