also known as Katelyn Burke
I am an estate planning and administration attorney based in Wellesley, Massachusetts. I work closely with individuals and families to develop tailored estate plans and provide guidance through the often complex process of estate administration following the loss of a loved one. I am dedicated to making the legal process more approachable and value the meaningful relationships I build with my clients.
I earned my J.D. from Suffolk University Law School in 2014 and went on to complete an LL.M. in Estate Planning and Elder Law at Western New England University School of Law in 2022. I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Vermont in 2011.
To me, professionalism means keeping commitments and approaching every matter with integrity, honesty, and reliability. This philosophy shapes how I practice law and is one of the reasons I appreciate working at a small firm where I can give each client the focused, individualized attention their situation deserves.
Outside of work, I live in Littleton with my wife and children. I enjoy boxing, spending time at the lake, and taking advantage of any chance to be outdoors and active.
