Background


Emily has been a dedicated family law paralegal for several years. She graduated from Georgia State University with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice and, shortly thereafter, interned at a criminal defense law firm, where she realized criminal law was not her true passion.

Before beginning her career in family law, Emily worked in the real estate and property management industry. She was drawn to family law because of her own personal experiences growing up in a divorced family and seeing firsthand how family dynamics can impact children and individuals. These experiences gave her a deep understanding of the emotional and personal challenges many clients face during family law matters.

Emily is passionate about advocating for clients and assisting attorneys in guiding families through difficult transitions with compassion, empathy and care. She finds deep purpose in supporting clients through some of the most challenging moments of their lives.

Outside of work, Emily enjoys spending time with her family, reading novels, watching historical fiction shows, and playing tennis. She also loves traveling and discovering new places with her family.
