"Emy is a truly a tender hearted and caring attorney, but maintains the bulldogedness necessary to be effective and successful."
Emy is a very direct and intense personality. She does not sugar coat, and can be abrasive at times. Underneath these personality traits is a genuine heart and desire to get the best possible results for her clients. Without question we would use Emy for a custody case again. She has the rare attribute of having enough humility to admit her faults and move past conflict to create a successful team effort. Despite our setbacks we were successful with a custody hearing out of state, with the father getting full custody. This is an enormous victory and we are thrilled with how much dedicated effort Emy gave us, as well as her thoroughness in acquiring the correct documentation and filtering out the excess. Emy is a truly a tender hearted and caring attorney, but maintains the bulldogedness necessary to be effective and successful. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for an experienced and effective attorney!

Choose Emy A. Cordano Attorney at Law for All Your Family Law Needs
I understand that family law does not always mean divorce. So much of what a family lawyer does happens regardless of whether or not two people were ever married. This is particularly true when there are children involved. Specifically, it is crucial to properly establish child custody and parenting time arrangements for two parents who separate, regardless of whether they were married or not. Additionally, the State of Utah requires that both parents continue to support their children in the form of child support. I can help ensure that these payments are properly calculated and fair. I can also help establish paternity for mothers seeking support and for fathers wishing to take responsibility or claim custody and visitation rights.
I can develop a plan to protect your assets in a marriage and may recommend a prenuptial agreement to protect your future just in case your marriage does not last. I can even create a marital agreement after you're already married if you are having issues with your spouse.
Even after a divorce, conflict may continue if you didn't have the right attorney representing you in the original case. I am experienced in handling conflicts surrounding alimony after a divorce has been finalized. While these two issues may be tangentially related to marriage, they certainly fall under the umbrella of family law and need to be dealt with appropriately with assistance from a skilled attorney.
Our commitment is to work closely with clients at every stage, whether they're drafting preventative measures like prenuptial agreements or addressing post-divorce challenges such as modification of orders. The nuances of family law extend beyond marital ties, affecting various facets of family life, from asset management to child-centered decisions. Legal guidance in these matters helps prevent future disputes, ensuring that every step you take is aligned with protecting your rights and supporting your family's well-being.
