Forever Grateful!

Before retaining a lawyer and filing for divorce, many people warned me that lawyers were soulless, especially in Las Vegas, and only concerned with lining their pockets with my money. I was told horror story after horror story from people who've dealt with lawyers here in Vegas. Scary stuff! Fortuna...tely, not only was this NOT my experience at all, but my interactions with McFarling Law Group was, in fact, the best experience with lawyers I have ever heard of! McFarling Law Group is the absolute BEST law firm in Las Vegas, BOTH HANDS DOWN!! Not only are they determined to fight for you and win, but they actually care about the people they are fighting for. I was divorcing a certifiable, textbook narcissist. When I first met with Emily McFarling, I was in a tight spot financially and could not pay her entire retainer. Emily gave me a significant discount so that I could secure McFarling Law Group as my counsel. My ex-husband hid money and assets, got people to forge documents and falsify information, lied throughout the case and caused the case to be prolonged many times by not following the judge's orders and by not submitting requested, subpoenaed documentation. McFarling Law Group made sure to get judgments against him for this. This case went on for years! This, along with circumstances due to the Covid pandemic, eventually drove me into bankruptcy. Although I owed several tens of thousands of dollars to McFarling Law Group, when I consulted with them about having to file bankruptcy, they supported me in doing so even though it meant that my bill for their services at the time would be totally discharged. They also further reassured me that I would not lose their counsel because of this and they were true to their word. We finally ended up settling before the trial was to begin. One of the agreements in the settlement was for my ex-husband to pay them. Anything that was left over for me to pay, they completely wrote it off and cleared my entire balance! They held my hand through years of litigation, stood beside me, and fought for me the entire time. I had a team of various lawyers and paralegals working on my case. There was not one time that I reached out to them and was not able to get a hold of them. The communication was great and they always updated me on any new occurrences involving my case. I can not thank them enough for everything they've done for me. They were truly a godsend and I will NEVER forget the kindness they showed me, nor the fight and tenacity they exhibited throughout my entire case. I am grateful beyond words and from the bottom of my heart appreciate each and every person who worked on my case over the years. I will be singing their praises and recommending them every chance I get. So, if you want to be represented by lawyers with REAL fight, grit and determination, with never-ending-endurance and ingenious, strategic know-how, who yet maintain their compassion and humanity towards those they fight for, there is none better than McFarling Law Group! You can feel the difference! You can see the difference! And, their rankings and ratings in Las Vegas speak for itself!

Thank You Emily and McFarling Law Group!

I consider myself lucky to have had McFarling Law Group (Emily & Michael) as my attorneys throughout my appeal process, in what can labeled as one of the most complex custody cases. My divorce/custody case has been very lengthy with a few former attorneys that disappointed me and at times were incomp...etent to defend my case. I was losing confidence in hiring any more law firms until I was referred to McFarling Law Group for my appeal. In my intial meeting with Emily I could see that she was extremely knowledgeable regarding the exact steps that needed to take place. Once they took over my case, I could tell the difference of dedication to my case from our very first meeting. They felt my pain, told me what steps were needed, and advised me what the best moves were going into our appeal process. The McFarling Law Group stood strong in the courtroom and challenged everyone to defend my rights. We won our appeal and had the chance to present facts that were not addressed the first time around (by my previous attorneys). Although we did not have the exact ending result we would have liked, they were still able to convince the judge of actions that are in my favor. Thanks to their great job, we made a huge advance in my case after giving up hope with past attorneys. The case is pretty much balanced again and we were able to get our judge to make a final decision that is as equal as can be for the time being, without having additional conflict. This final decision was because of this Law Groups efforts in presenting my wishes to her throughout our litigation. In addition, McFarling Law Group is very honest. I have always received great counsel and was presented with all potential outcomes so that I could be prepared and know how to move forward despite which decision we would receive. I was never promised a win in our hearings (as I was in the past) but made me rest assured that I was in good hands. Communication with this Law Firm is very easy! They use a legal software site that is extremely easy to navigate. It logs every aspect of your case (documents, hearing dates, emails, billing, and more). They are also very good at phone communication and have an amazing staff of highly knowledgeable paralegals ready and willing to help answer questions. McFarling Law Group's entire staff are very approachable to ask sudden questions, suggestions and guided me accordingly for my best outcome. I am so thankful for the brave defense and continuous arguments against the other party to prove them wrong, playing the right cards at the right time, and continuing to present everything very well said. I highly recommend the McFarling Law Group as efficient, knowledgeable and great attorneys (and staff). Ultimately, they have been great people that always make me feel confident and ease my mind regarding my case. Whatever I say may not be enough as a recommendation, but this is the least I can do. I would feel guilty not to recognize them as a powerful and successful Law Firm. If you are having a tough time deciding on the right Law Firm to handle your divorce/custody case or you are involved in a complicated situation this is the firm you want on your side! I will continue to use and recommend this firm for any future litigation.

Child Custody Modification

I retained Emily Mcfarling a few months back for my physical custody modification. My lawyer at the time (Adam Gill) was completely useless. Praying that Mcfarling law firm would help me, I set up a consultation with Emily Mcfarling. Let me just say my prayers were answered! What made me retain Emi...ly right away and what made her different from previous lawyers I retained was how professional she was. At my consultation she had a huge stack of papers of my case since 2008. Before I arrived to my appointment she knew my history and was beyond prepared for me. That is what made me feel confident she was the right choice. Emily and her team were amazing and professional. I saw progress right away. Someone was always in contact with me and following up with me on my case. They use an app My Case which allows you to message anyone of her team or Emily herself. After a couple of months my case was resolved and closed. I did not have to go to court because of Emily's negotiation skills and knowledge my ex and I agreed outside of court. I am completely happy with my results and got exactly what I wanted and deserved! Emily Mcfarling is on the pricy side but let me just say this; I went through 3 lawyers until I found Emily. None of my previous lawyers I retained can compare to Emily and her team! She is one sharp lawyer! I would retain Emily again or refer her to someone in need of a great lawyer.
