Not just Great; Amazing!

Such a vastly different experience: a lawyer who told me the truth. A lawyer who told me what my other lawyer had done. A lawyer who pointed out the flaws in the oppositions case. I am in utter shock. I shudder to think if I hadn't decided to retain her. My whole world, my children are at stak...e and my other lawyer was pushing me into termination of parental rights without telling me. Signing for me and not showing me. For what purpose? I don't know. And she showed me; showed me what he had done and would not admit to doing. If your gut tells you that something is wrong, that your lawyer is steering you off a cliff, find Emy. As Utah swings wildly into being a father's rights state, supported by the "bro-hood"- you have to be careful who you trust. I trusted the wrong person. Hopefully it is not too late.

Run fast from her

The title reads enough. Divorce is the most important aspect you will go through and will impact you and your kids for years to come. Read my title and understand those are the kindest most dignified words I can use to express her level of services.

I have thought long and hard about how to respond to this review. I don't know who this might be or I would contact you directly. Nor did I imagine I had a client that felt this way. It is heartbreaking to hear this. I am so sorry and so sorry to hear this after the fact. I appreciate that this took time and effort to say and now its my turn to ensure reparation. This is my life's work and nothing is more important to me than my client's life and future. I do what I do for a reason and I can assure you that anyone leaving my office this disappointed is exactly what I don't want to happen. I am so sorry that I seem to have failed to meet your expectations. This has to be righted if at all possible and in a timely manner. Since this was posted anonymously and I cannot seem to reconcile this with any recent cases, please contact me at 801-821-8561. Please ask to speak with me directly or my office manager. Please reference this review. Alternatively, you have my email, please email me. I trust and hope to hear from you. Please.

Very Professional

Emy is a true professional in the field of divorce law. My confidence never failed in her ability to help me understand the proceedings in my divorce, and to aid me in making the right decisions to achieve the best outcome.

Similar experience

I would never hire Emy Cordano again. I was charged over $1100 to have her tell me that she knew nothing about the field she advertized that she was an expert in, military divorces. Yes, she makes lots of promises, acts like she can help and then after getting the retainer, does nothing.

I am so sorry to hear this from an alleged former client. I've not been able to match any of my cases to the facts alleged in your message and I apologize for any inconvenience but I would appreciate the opportunity to make this right with you. Please contact me directly by calling 801-821-8561 OR please feel free to email me directly - as a former client you have my personal email. Thank you for letting me know about your dissatisfaction. I only wish you had allowed me the opportunity to make this right before posting this as I work too hard for my clients and care too much to have any client leave this dissatisfied. I trust you will contact me and allow me to fix this immediately. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you.

I met with Ms. Cordano for a consult. She is very professional and knowledgeable. She helped me through the anxiety of the situation and calmed my nerves of the divorce process. I know she'll have my back through this process all the way till the end! Here we go for a Win! Thank you Emy!!
