God send me an Angel

I met Emily at the darkest time of my life. I had lost both parents and my sister within 3 yrs. My heart was shattered, I didn’t even want to get out of bed. I was overwhelmed with all the paperwork, trying to make sure my parents belongings went where they wanted them to go. I didn’t know what I was... doing. Emily helped me more than she knows. She was kind, explaining the process and answering all my questions. Everything turned out just like she had told me it would. The beautiful thing about this, Emily wasn’t my lawyer I didn’t give her nothing. I’m convinced Jesus seen how fragile i was and sent me a little help.

I was more than satisfied with the Emily’s overall attention and preparation toward every aspect of my claim.Very professional and prompt to answer any and all questions that I had. I would definitely recommend Emily for your attorney needs.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
