I was recommended to Emily by word-of-mouth from a family friend and I am so thankful that I came in contact with her. Prior to meeting Emily, I worked with a small local law firm that truly wasn't 'small business' focused and took a long time getting to small requests. Emily is approachable and able to explain items that I need to complete to be 'legally fit' as a small business owner. Additionally, I inquired about services such as Privacy Policy creation, customer disputes, and contract-bid-writing and she has been able to help me with it all. I would highly recommend, a true lawyer for us small people!
Tony, Small Business Owner
Emily truly cares for her clients. She is very generous of her time and energy, and I am beyond grateful for her help! It was the first time that I learned that my artwork has real value, and Emily said it with truth. It was my first legal situation, and I was nervous—I didn’t know what to expect. However, Emily patiently and calmly walked me through every step of the legal process, clearly explaining my rights as an artist, and always made herself available to me to chat (even though we have a 3-hour time difference)! I can confidently say that Emily has boosted my confidence as a professional artist, and I have gained much knowledge through her expertise. She also turned one particular business venture from a project I had valued at only a few hundred dollars, into a business deal worth of tens of thousands of dollars, and helped me negotiate the contract to ensure I received that amount. Emily is such a gift!
Marie, Small Business Owner

Elizabeth, Small Business Owner
Emily has been such an amazing part of my career journey. She is a reliable resource who puts 110% in everything she does. She helped me decide which path to take with an opportunity that had a very involved compensation structure. She identified quickly areas that needed attention in our paperwork and in the compensation structure to ensure I was protected from any potential issues in the future. We can always count on Emily for any legal advice and know that we are in good hands.

Mary Wathen, Small Business Owner
Emily has been very clear and communicative about what services she can help me with as I set up my business as well as understanding that as a new and small business owner, I need to be really mindful of my budget. So she worked with me to figure out what was most important to me to hire her for as well as what would be legally responsible to do. I did not feel like she nickel and dimed me as I feared a lawyer would do but was understanding and happy to clarify things I had questions with.
Michele, Small Business Owner
Any kind of legal process can be stressful, but Emily made me feel at ease. She is extremely knowledgeable and professional, and I truly felt that I could trust her counsel every step of the way. Throughout the process, she ensured that my understanding was clear and it was evident that she always had my best interest in mind. I highly recommend partnering with her for any of your legal needs!

Bianca, C Suite Executive
I reached out to Emily for guidance with my family's small business. We had some general questions and needed to file a few forms including a DBA. I felt overwhelmed trying to figure it out all on my own. What I loved most about Emily was that she didn't make me feel inadequate or talk over my head. She was very straightforward and used the right language to help me understand the process. I quickly had the tools needed to move forward. I'll be using Emily for all my legal needs moving forward!
Hailey, Small Business Owner
