Criminal Defense 60%

My criminal practice spans from juvenile delinquency cases to adult life offenses. I am versed in strategic negotiation, but do not shy from trial practice. I have been handling criminal matters since 2010

60%
Family 20%

I first learned the ins and outs of family law clerking for the Circuit Court Family Judge in Frankfort, KY over a decade ago. I stay up to date on the most recent rulings and legal changes.

Criminal defense lawyer | Jan 18

Relationship: Fellow lawyer in community

"I endorse this lawyer for criminal law, family law, and juvenile law. I have known Emily for approximately 7 years. I met Emily when she was practicing as an assistant prosecutor and have actually tried a three-day jury trial against her while she was employed in that capacity. I have tried dozens of felony jury trial throughout the state of Michigan and in numerous federal courts throughout the country. I have tried cases against numerous state prosecutors and assitant united states attorneys. Emily was quite simply one of the best attorneys I have ever gone up against. This opinion is also shaed by my partners. I was pleased to hear of her move to private practice. She is a tenacious advocate and will serve her clients well. I cannot give a higher endorsement."
