Hired Attorney Emily McFarling, Esq.

This was my first time at hiring a lawyer and was a pleasant experience. Everyone at the office was very helpful and friendly, they answered all my questions when I called and got back to my emails quickly.
I never meet anyone at the office I had moved out of state and did every thing over the phone and emails. I would highly recommend them.

Thank you for the expert legal defense you provided our small business over the past 5 years as we found ourselves the target of a lawsuit from a large corporation. Your knowledge, advice and recommendations were instrumental to the settlement that was ultimately negotiated; and, the results were better than we could have hoped for.

While divorce is not fun by any stretch, the McFarling Law Group made it as painless as possible. They were quick, efficient, and delivered exactly what we discussed on my first meeting with them. Thank you for making what could have been a terrible experience, easy.

Hired Attorney Emily McFarling, Esq.

I got five star service from Mcfarlin'--Until she got her money...The BIG money!  My judge awarded me $100,000 from my Exhusband. Mcfarlin' kept it in escgrow & NEVER returned my money properly! Next, Mcfarlin' withdrew herself as my council days before my court day.  Ms. McShuffle's selfish and immoral gesture was dangerously close to an ethical matter that should get her disbarred.  DO NOT HIRE McFarce aka Mrs. McShuffle at The McFinagle Law Group! I wish to share my negative experience but remain fearful that McFargin' will respond punitively.

Hired Attorney Emily McFarling, Esq.

I hired Emily to assist me in my Father's probate hearing. I retained her in 2-2013 after the Estate Attorney and Executor refused to continue paying out my inheritance that was a monthly stream of income from real property in CA and $100,000 in cash and real property. She basically did nothing and spent less than 5 hours working on the case in 2013. In 2014 she may have spent another 10 hours. All the while, the Estate Attorney Robert Graham is stealing from the Estate. He stole $300,000 and part of that was my $100k. I had to hire another attorney and spent 6 years undoing the damage done by her lack of action and lack of knowledge of the area and he was able to obtain the payment of the lease proceeds from 12-2012 to 10-2020 by forcing the Executor to disgorge the funds she'd personally taken and consumed. It cost me $25,000 on another attorney to fix her mess. Be very wary of her. MY case #11-072026 in Clark County Superior Court

It is solely the responsibility of lawyers and law firms to ensure that any information they provide complies with all applicable laws and rules of professional conduct.

Lawyers.com Client Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale Peer Reviews

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.

For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings™, please visit our Ratings Page on Martindale.com and our Frequently Asked Questions

Avvo Client Reviews

Ratings and reviews are feedback from people who have either consulted an attorney about an issue (but may not have hired the attorney) or people who hired an attorney as a current or former client and provided their feedback to our sister site, Avvo.com.
