Emy knows her stuff!

Emy did an amazing job from day one in understanding my divorce case and what was important to me for a resolution. She offered to sit down and meet in person multiple times, and that was a big deal to me. She was knowledgeable and professional every step of the way. Instead of the case going to cour...t and spending more money, she worked hard to get it to mediation and then fought for a positive resolution. Her communication was also very commendable throughout the process and I never felt in the dark about where we were at or what the next step was. Emy will work hard for you and make sure you get what's in your best interest

When only the best will do....

Two words that differentiate Emy Cordano from the average prosecutor: fierce & determined. This description held true when I met Emy in person - she resonates a presence that instills confidence, period. During an exhaustive search for legal representation - specifically involving a high conflic...t case - I knew exactly what key qualities to look for: an innovative strategist with a solid winning track record, a forward thinker skilled at “out of the box” solutions, and most important: a “partner” who listens, understands, and is driven to protect the rights of her client: expeditiously with minimum financial impact. The words I wanted to hear were: “Yes, I can represent you and win”. And this was my perception from consulting with Emy only twice. Imagine the potential if you choose someone like Emy to represent you in the most important battle of your life: the best interest of your children and yourself. My two word description of Emy? A legal ninja.

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

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.

Horrible!

Horrible!! She won’t answer your questions until the 5th email or call you give her and then charges you for every email she sent you without answering the question. Her pricing is ridiculous I spent over 6K in only 2 months and that is only attending one temporary child custody hearing. She will ac...tually question what she is saying during the court time and will not fight for what you want she will ask you pointless questions and then at the time of the hearing date will than ask if you have all that information written down because she doesn’t. She is not professional and will suck you dry with all your money. I made all the copies and extra work to keep extra charges down and she still charged me even after she said she wouldn’t. She says she is a beast in the court room......NOT!! She did nothing...I could have done a better job myself!!She lets the other attorneys walk all over her because it doesn’t matter to her if your 1 year old little girl gets taken away from her mother because she already got paid! The father had nothing agents me but since she decided to sit back and not fight for my rights as a mother half of my time was taken away!!A 1 year old little girl needs her mother, her father is very important yes but she had NEVER been apart from me for 24 hrs until the day EMY CORDANO did not fight for my rights!
