Beyond all expectations ...

While visiting Nashville I was arrested for DUI. I am from out of state and Ms. Todoran was recommended to me as being extremely competent. Tennessee has a zero tolerance regarding DUI. I drive for a living and faced what appeared to be insurmountable issues. I was not drunk, Ms Todoran viewed the ...police video and agreed. She informed me that the assistant District Attorneys who were assigned to my case were not very creative and so she circumvented them and pleaded my case directly with their supervisor. The outcome was beyond all expectations of what I was led to believe would be a best case scenario. I am required to do community service which when completed will erase all record of my arrest. I am thankful beyond compare for the outcome Ms. Todoran accomplished and would highly recommend her.

Nashville's Best Lawyer!

Wow! Let me just say that Emily is as good as they come. She has a strong report with the DA's, Judges, and Probation Officers. I was facing losing my freedom for a very long time and hence my Child, Employment, Home, Everything. Emily was not only able to get all 5 of my charges dropped, but s...he also ensured that they would be permanently removed from my record. She is hard working, thorough and takes all the extra steps necessary to ensure the best possible outcome for her clients. I hope I never need to call her again, but if I ever have a need for another lawyer she is the obvious choice.

Emily's Proformance as a Strong Attorney is Highly recommened!

I can Honestly say; when looking at her at first glance, you may think this little lady could not be intimedating but she Can! She is very Educated of the Law and holds a Professional attitude through out your entire Case load. I had a Very "High Poplicity" Case that needed a Woman in Charge and "She... was The One" Thank You for Careing! JASON ( [email protected])

Restoring the Faith

Too often these days you hear about how most lawyers are insensitive to clients needs and are just "in it for the check." This is definitely not the case with Emily. Not only does she take time to understand everything she can about the case and clients involvement, but she aggressively and passionat...ely fights for her clients without hesitation. I first observed Emily in action when testifying as a witness for another case. I was immediately impressed. Her tenacious attitude and refusal to take no for an answer was extremely admirable. Shortly after I recieved a charge myself, I was pleased to learn that I would be represented by Emily herself. During my case, she showed superior confidence and ingenuity. She was able to pick apart both testimonies against me, pointing out flaws in there story and eventually recieving a confession to lying under oath. I would definitely recommend Emily to anyone seeking a good attorney with a strong work ethic.
