The kindest person I've ever met!

Ms Corliss and her firm Are absolutely without question the most stand up, correct, sharp, smart and extremely Pleasant to deal with. I would hire her again and recommend her to anybody that I cared about in the blink of an eye. I could never say enough about how her and her firm treated my family.

attorney from hell

My family hired Corliss and were not at all satisfied with her services. She was rude and shouted at family members. Ultimately she caused major friction among us.

Best Attorney for Estate/Elder Care Issues

Kind, Competent, Compassionate, and Fair is the best way to describe Marie. When I first met her, my Mother was battling Ovarian Cancer, my Father was distraught and Marie was very gentle, kind and compassionate to them. They loved her. For me as the trustee/executor of their estate, I was an im...mediate fan because I could tell that she knew her stuff and yet compared to other attorneys who wanted to redo my parent's trust for significant fees, Marie used their existing trust and just updated what needed updating. She was totally fair with her fees. I'm in the process of closing out their affairs and I highly recommend working with Marie.

Intelligent insightful attorney

I consulted with Marie about the trustee of my Father's estate who has acted improperly showing contempt for me and disregard for my Father's wishes for me. Marie spoke with me after reviewing a detailed document and the Will giving me very detailed and professional understanding of my options in po...ssibly removing the trustee, for FREE, she genuinely cared about my situation. If you're unlucky enough to have an issue with Wills or Trusts, you can trust her to help in a compassionate way. Too bad there's only 5 stars in the review, she deserves more.

Competent and Caring

I came to Marie Corliss needing a competent and caring attorney to organize what I wanted to accomplish with a complex Will and an emotionally challenging Special Needs Trust. When these documents were completed I knew that because of her experience, creativity and empathy, I was able to accomplish t...hese goals. Marie listened with respect to my many questions and answered each one with a clear response. Her fees have been more than reasonable and I always felt that she had my best interests at heart. I truly owe her my peace of mind.
