Quick and Helpful Response

We were in a time sensitive custody situation that had us lost and scared. I reached out to Emily after finding her on a google search and I couldn't have been luckier. She responded quickly and she worked me in for a phone call where I asked all my questions and got some immediate advise. Ultimat...ely, we wanted to retain Emily in case the situation needed quick action from her. She has always been responsive and compassionate when we were scared and didn't know what to do. I can't thank her enough. We will use Emily for any custody issue we have in the future.

Great Attorney!

We used Emily for a child custody case. She was very professional and attentive. She’s quick to respond to questions. She helped us win custody. I would definitely use her as a lawyer again. Very highly recommended.

Professional, Honest, Caring

I went to Emily wanting to make changes to my current parenting plan that was created during an emotional divorce. Originally, the plan lacked the wording and specificity it neeeded to ensure my child would have strict guidelines about the use of firearms, an out-of-state pick-up and drop-off plan, a...nd detailed information regarding time with each parent, etc. She was always up front with me about things that I wanted that may not work, no matter how emotional I may have been; and her knowledge of the law and her interest in both myself and my son‘s best interest truly showed in her work ethic. She responded quickly when I needed advice, no matter what day or time, and always made me feel calm about the situation at hand. My parenting plan meets my child’s needs clearly, and I know that I can count on her to be honest, efficient, and ultimately there for my son and I when I need her. She’s checked in with me to see how things are going even after her payment was received, and I know that she’ll be there for us both when we need her. She’s a wonderful person, and an extraordinary lawyer. I would recommend her services to anyone who asks.

Divorce attorney

I have used Emily from the very beginning of my divorce. Unfortunately, I have a very difficult ex husband but Emily has always been there to fight for what's best for me. She won't backdown or settle for anything that isn't in my best interest. I've had to contact her after hours and when she was ou...t of the country on vacation. She's always willing to listen and help.

Couldn’t have asked for better representation

No one ever wants to go through divorce or a child custody battle, but Emily made it a relatively quick and painless experience. She got to work on my case immediately and made sure I felt valued, no matter how busy she was. She remained relentless in the pursuit of my desires but remained very hones...t about her opinion of my requests. She made sure I was aware of the battle I was choosing to fight and did her best to help me settle everything, without a lengthy court battle. Her sole focus was on doing what was best for myself and my family. When I started researching lawyers I felt like I was going to be very alone through the process but from the moment that I first spoke with Emily she made me feel empowered and helped me regain control of my life. I would recommend her to anyone looking for honest and strong legal representation.

"Emily Leininger is a lawyer in the Williamson County, Tennessee, area who is well known and also well respected. She has been appointed to be the Law Day and Career Fair chair by the Williamson County Bar Association. She is also a member of the prestigious Harry Phillips American Inn of Court. Emily has an excellent and informative website for prospective clients to learn more about family law and divorce issues--always a great thing when a lawyer puts time and care into educating the community on that lawyer's area of practice. Finally, I have been in contact with Emily recently and have found her to be responsive and very pleasant and professional in her dealings. I endorse Emily Leininger as a family law/divorce attorney."

"I have known Emily for over 15 yrs and remember when she first began law school. I could not help but be impressed with her devotion to her Family, her work and going to law school at the same time. This is a prime example of multi-tasking and really showed her devotion to getting her law degree and practicing law. She has since become a noted expert on Family Law and the person to see if you have these issues. I highly recommend Emily and wish her the most success."
