Amanda
There were many times I was upset and anxious, but Emily had extensive knowledge of TPD, was very personable, and always made sure I understood everything. I truly appreciated her empathy, patience, and professionalism.
R Martin
My lawyer was Emily Pignone and I was blessed to have someone advocating for me that I never even met. She is lovely. They took the stress out of the process.
Brad Oldroyd
For a lawyer of such young age she is ahead of her time. I am of the opinion that she is one of if not the best young lawyers in Australia.

Emily was efficient, got my TPD approved quickly, and made the process stress-free by explaining everything clearly. She truly had my best interests in mind.
Bijoux
Emily’s professionalism made this process run smoothly. Her senior legal secretary Estelle was also lovely — they both made this process less stressful than I thought it would be.
