Professional and Amazing!!!

Emily is an absolutely amazing and professional attorney! I had met with several attorneys and some were not a good fit and others were intimidated by my special circumstances case. As soon as I met with Emily and Amanda, I knew I was in the right place. They both were motivated to help me get chi...ld support from someone who knew how to evade the system (he owed over $40k in back child support). Emily did her homework and made sure he did not evade the system anymore and helped me finally start receiving child support in a short time period. I am very thankful that Emily was diligent, efficient and knowledgeable in every aspect.

Great experience

She did a fantastic job talking me through the options and the entire process for my case. She (and her team) were very much on top of things to the point that they were reminding me to follow up on certain issues. All around great to work with.

Divorce Attorney

Mrs. Ross handled my divorce proceedings. She is very professional and thorough. She and her staff were very prompt in returning phone calls,emails, and balance of retainer. She is honest and straight forward. She was very kind and empathetic too my particular situation and I would not hesitate ...to use her services again or recommend her to family and/or friends in need of legal proceedings.

Blows thru retainers then fails to notify ypi

This attorney assured me the the other parent would not take a position. We hired her then not only did he but she allowed it and stated we got a good deal Also be careful she will use up your retainer then not notify you. When you terminate her she send a huge bill for work done after retainer was... empty Be careful of this one

Adoption process

Thank you very much for all your help on our process to adopt our child. You did a great job at the court house and research information from CPS.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

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.
