Our Approach

You hope to never need a divorce or family law attorney, but when you do, you need the best one you can afford. Good counsel should help resolve issues, not escalate them.

Your lawyer should:

Use legal strategies to resolve your case, not overcomplicate it.
Focus on your goals and craft a plan to meet your needs.
Guide you with highly personalized attention and responsiveness.
Always advocate for the best possible result.

The strongest negotiating position is one with leverage. By being prepared to win in court and unleashing a proactive strategy, we negotiate from the strongest position possible.

We’ve settled extremely contentious divorces with effective negotiation and preparation. That said, we know that sometimes you must fight in court for a just result in a divorce.

This is how our team works. This is the way we serve and guide our clients.

We negotiate and litigate family and divorce cases, whether amicable or contentious. We work with appraisers, forensic accountants, and other financial experts to identify, characterize, and protect assets and income.

We have extensive experience settling and litigating child custody and visitation disputes, including use of private custody evaluations, private co-parenting counselors, parenting plan assessments, and professionally supervised visitations.

What Our Clients Have to Say

"I was able to happily start the next chapter of my life."

Emily came into my life at a difficult time. But after our initial consultation, I knew I was in good hands. She listened to my concerns, carefully assessed the situation, and charted a clear path forward to help resolve my divorce… Emily ensured my divorce was finalized to my great satisfaction. I was able to happily start the next chapter of my life. I credit this positive outcome to Emily’s professionalism, knowledge of the law, and fierce advocacy.
Ben
"She was always two to three steps ahead of the other attorneys."

Her professionalism, attention to detail, and ability to plan ahead of time were great. During the consultation, we put together a strategy on how to approach the divorce. She was always two to three steps ahead of the other attorneys which helped us win the case. All her planning is very thorough, well thought through, and had a purpose. She was my guardian during such a difficult time, and I cannot thank her for everything that she did.
Eyal
"[She] guided me through the process and helped me stay calm during an extremely intense period of time."

Given the fact that it is never easy to go through a situation where you need her services, [Emily] made the whole process so much easier than it may have been… I had a particularly difficult custody case due to the fact that the other party was not willing to cooperate at all… [She] guided me through the process and helped me stay calm during an extremely intense period of time. We ended up having to go to court, and won everything, and more than we had wanted.
Dan
"She always took the time to thoroughly explain issues and strategies."

I cannot say enough great things about Emily. During such an emotionally draining time in life, she exhibited empathy, poise, and sensitivity. Her communication is top-notch, and she always took the time to thoroughly explain issues and strategies.
Sara
"[They] made a difficult and scary process the easiest it can be."

Emily and her team made a difficult and scary process the easiest it can be. I never felt pressured and was always kept well informed. No question was too small because Emily’s goal was for me to feel comfortable, informed, and empowered each step of the way. My girls and I thank you for being there in our most difficult time!
Karla
"Emily was fantastic in helping me draft my prenup."

Emily was fantastic in helping me draft my prenup. There are a lot of things to know and she answers every question clearly. Thank you for making it such an easy process.
