Thorough and professional Service

I used Ms. Hilowitz for the past 6 years on a complicated trust dispersal after the death of a family member. I was the Trustee. She handled it with expertise and patience seeing it to its amiable conclusion for all concerned even when dealing with exceptionally difficult counsel from other parti...es. Thank you!

Posted by Steve | July 29, 2011 | Elder Law

Excellent Attorney

Lynne has been our attorney for about 15 years. She did an excellent job handling retirement planning for my parents as well as for my wife and me, and handled my parents estate efficiently and smoothly. While her expertise is primarily in elder law, she has helped us on a number of non-elder law is...sues over the years.

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
