Emma Hamlet

Emma Hamlet is an associate attorney in Swift Currie’s Atlanta office. Her primary practice is representing insurers/insurance carriers and insured in coverage and defense matters with a focus on first-party property claims.

Prior to joining Swift Currie, Emma worked at a full service law firm, where she performed all phases of civil litigation, including investigating and reporting after catastrophic loss, case evaluation and strategy, discovery, responsive motions and trial preparation.

Emma believes in giving her clients value for her work by being efficient in developing strategies and effectively communicating with them.

Emma earned her J.D. from the University of Georgia School of Law.
