Emily May Bradfute's Lawyer Endorsements
"I have worked with Emily for more than six years. She is one of my "go to" attorneys when I have a question about a case and need a different perspective. She is always ready to listen and often provides insights that have helped me resolve my issue. Additionally, although a zealous advocate who never cuts corners in her representation of a client, she also is extremely conscious of how quickly attorney's fees and costs can escalate in a divorce case."
"Mrs. Bradfute is a skillful and effective family law attorney. She is a fierce advocate and negotiator for her clients but also understands the value of mediation. I have been both her opponent and her friend, and I definitely prefer the latter. If I ever needed personal family law advice, she would be my first call."
"Emily is very smart and knows the law. I endorse this lawyer without hesitation."
"I endorse this lawyer. We have worked together on several cases and she is quite knowledgeable, even having names of cases on almost any issue we've worked on readily accessible off the top of her head! She is a pleasure to work with and is quite the aggressive attorney as needed to protect her clients' best interests."
"I endorse this lawyer. Ms. Bradfute is thoroughly and highly knowledgeable. She is a pleasure to work with."
"Ms. Bradfute is a pleasure to work with. She has excellent writing skills, promptly communicates with clients and opposing counsel. Further, she has great knowledge of family law and can formulate unique strategies to resolve novel issues."
