Excellent Attorney

Emy helped me through an extremely difficult divorce and custody situation. She was always there to answer all of my questions and help me understand everything clearly. I was able to gain full custody of my son and I couldn't have done it without her help. I would highly recommend her assistance.

clear advice, plainly spoken

Emy asked me questions about my case, and explained things in a clear and concise way. She didn't talk in "legalese". She didn't try to 'sell' me on anything, but rather, outlined my options. Although I wasn't able to hire Emy (no fault of hers), I sure wish I could!

Thank you so much for taking the time to do this. So kind of you. It was a pleasure to speak with you and I wish I could help. If things don't work out, please let me know because at the very least we can discuss other options.... All the best....

Amazing Attorney Emy Cordano

Emy Cordano is amazing. I can't thank her enough! I am so overwhelmed with happiness for my son and I and am so grateful for all her help on my cas e!! I've been very scared and stressed through this process, and she has helped me stay calm and feel comfortable and I knew I was in good hands with her.... She has greatly helped me through this tough, hurtful situation. I would definitely recommend Emy!

Focused, and Attentive.

Immediately I noticed that Emy was very focused on my case and very attentive to the details. I chose Emy because she only works in family law. Initially I was very reluctant to hire any attorney at all. I'm not experienced in matters of the court, and didn't really know what to look for in legal hel...p. My concerns were swiftly left behind when I witnessed how hard Emy worked, how experienced she is, her focus, and her professionalism. Emy gave us the black and white truth in regards to the issues at hand. Emy provided us with complete knowledge as to where we were in the process, and insisted on my approval every step of the way in our strategy and legal document submission. Emy is a private attorney, and we actually appreciated this. She doesn't work for a big fancy law firm downtown, and doesn't have a balcony office on the 18th floor, but due to the fact that she is private she also has much more freedom to be herself than associated attorney. If I could sum up Emy in one word it would be this: "Warrior." If I were an attorney I would not want to see her name on the oppositions paperwork.

I almost lost the house until Emy

Emy helped me keep the roof over my head and that of my children. We had only been married a year but had 3 children together. He didn't cheat, he didn't do anything horrible, he simply decided one day not to be married anymore and told me to move out and that I could see my children 50% of the time.... I was gobsmacked and turned to Emy for advice. It didn't take long after our first meeting to feel that Emy was on my side. She was very down to Earth, asked a LOT of questions but now I see why, because I got the one thing from the divorce I needed more than child support. I couldn't take my kids out of school, move jobs and find a new home all at once so without Emy I may have found myself homeless, jobless and on the streets! She is worth it! Thank you Emy for a great experience and for a very fast divorce. I hate to say it, to anybody, but if you are thinking about divorce, have kids in the mix, are worried about alimony and child support, please think of Emy. Jess
