Highly educated, ethical and skilled attorney

My husband and I are both lawyers who needed our estate planning documents prepared but practice in a wholly separate area of the law. We have known Emily for years both personally and professionally and were familiar with her high ethical standards, strong work ethic and commitment to getting it ri...ght, which is why we chose her. Emily gracefully guided us through making difficult decisions and was particularly effective at educating us about the potential tax implications of our decisions. We highly recommend her.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
