Best attorney around

I couldn’t have asked for better representation during my divorce. From the start, she demonstrated an incredible depth of experience and strategic thinking. She anticipated issues I never would have considered and ensured they were addressed in the agreement, which has already proven invaluable long... after the divorce was finalized. Her foresight saved me time, stress, and potential conflict down the road. She was consistently available, responsive, and genuinely invested in protecting my best interests. I have complete trust in her and would absolutely recommend her to anyone needing a skilled and thoughtful family law attorney.

High conflict custody

I really appreciated how much thought went into the approach of the opposition in my case and how difusing a high conflict situation was part of the initial process instead of perpetuating more strife and affecting the greater good, (Children). I am happy with the advice and tactics both discussed an...d the thoughtful solutions implemented in my case and i would recommend Emily to friends and family alike.

EMILY COCHRAN-DESANTIS IS WHO YOU WANT ON YOUR SIDE DURING A DIVORCE

Emily was recommended to me by a friend and I am so thankful I picked up the phone and scheduled that consultation. We went the collabrative route to process my divorce. Emily was with me every step of the way. There were times when I couldn't think clearly, just in a daze from the tension and stres...s. She stepped in and fought on my behalf and I am so grateful for her. Knowledgeable and professional-- I would highly recommend her. She will be forever known in my books as the 'feisty redhead'!”

Well-Represented at all times

Emily and Jennifer were great throughout the whole process. Emily is extremely relatable, down to Earth. She continuously advocated for our best interests so we felt well-represented at all times. While I hope to not need her again. I will certainly contact her if I do! 10/10

Best family lawyer!

I met Emily Cochran during one of the hardest times of my life. I had just had a son and was needing help keeping full custody for his safety. My first lawyer basically told me my expectations were unrealistic and this is how the law works and that I needed to "get over it, he is the father and you h...ave to deal with him for 18 years". I didn't accept that. Emily listened to me and understood my priorities for my family. She was not only empathetic but professional in her role. She would always listen to my concerns and help me understand the legal process and all the options we had available with the potential outcomes. She fought so hard for my son and was always there when I needed her. It's been six years and I still have full custody of my son. Without her I don't know where we would be now.
