A Fantastic Person more than just a Fantastic Attorney

Maybe Emy is the best because she has a perspective from several countries. I was fascinated to know Emy is from south africa, where she saw injustice in families daily. I am just a local woman, never been anywhere other than mexico on vacation or to North Carolina to see my ex-husbands family on a t...rip so as you can imagine, I haven't seen much hardship here in Utah. I think because of that I didn't know who to turn to, my bishop advised I stay married, so I did for a number of years, unhappily. My ex-husband was mentally abusive, you don't know just how bad it is until you can't leave the house without anxiety and you always doubt yourself and feel terribly about who you are, you hate your reflection. I spoke with Emy and she set me on the path to rediscovering myself. I was able to file divorce and she helped me when my bishop tried to advise me against it. I am still an active member of the church, but I came close to the edge and without Emy holding my hand through the entire ordeal, I may have caved. Emy helped file, finalize and come out a better person from my divorce. I have a home, and can finally get back to finishing my degree and getting a job, something my ex-husband wouldn't let me do. Thank you Emy for saving my life, truly. This isn't me being sappy, it is me being thankful knowing someone was in my corner, for me! Best wishes to you and yours always, Debby J.

Custody battle, if only I'd found her for my divorce too!

I dealt with Emy for the wonderful custody battle I had with my ex husband. From day one she held my hand and explained in very simple terms exactly what we were going to do and how we were going to do it. I couldn't stand my children being awarded partial custody by the most idiotic judge out there ...and when the judge allowed the fact he had a number of adultery claims proven, women battery proven, and other items I won't go into...all proven, that he STILL had claim over influencing my children. I wish I had found emy for my divorce I might have gotten full custody of my children from the beginning. Thank you emy for all the help, the constant contact and for being available outside of normal hours to work around my schedule. I wish you the very best and hope that should anyone need help on their divorce or with their children, they pick up the phone and call you. warmest regards, Tanya.

Excellent Divorce Attorney

Emy did an outstanding job on my divorce. She took the time to understand my situation. She was aggressive in pursuing my interests. Her rates are very reasonable. Emy is experienced, knowledgeable, and efficient. I would recommend her to anyone without reservation.
