The best!

Angel helped us complete our kinship adoption. It's hard to even put into words how amazing Angel is, but here are some that come to mind: knowledgeable, caring, organized, meticulous, and diligent. Communication was great through out the whole process as well. I would not hesitate to hire Angel agai...n!

Above and Beyond

In 2018, my husband and I had Angel create a simple will for us at the beginning of our adoption journey. We were able to complete all paperwork with her electronically and meet for the final signing. She was very flexible, made the process easy to understand, and was great to work with. She was als...o our lawyer for the adoption of our son. She went above and beyond to reach out to our county office to get our paperwork completed in a timely manner. Angel was very calm and positive through the entire process. I have recommended her to many other families and would definitely work with her again in the future.

Compassion and Integrity

Angel went above and beyond to help us throughout our adoption process. We had great difficulty with another attorney, and just as we were beginning to feel hopeless, we met Angel who offered us the support, guidance and reassurance that we sorely needed. Angel demonstrates a level of compassion that... can only come naturally. That combined with great knowledge for adoption law made her the perfect fit for us. We are so grateful that Angel came into our lives and helped us become parents to the most amazing little boy we have ever known!

A true Angel!

Angel Gillis is a true angel! She was so incredible in helping us in adopting our son! It was a long and complicated situation that she made as painless as possible. We appreciate her more than we could ever say. She kept in constant contact with us and assisted us in navigating the path of adoptio...n. It is not an easy process and having someone like Mrs. Gillis to guide the way was an enormous relief. She is highly recommended!!!

Great attorney

We hired angel for our step parent adoption and she was the calm to my chaos. There were many times were I was completely frustrated and freaking out and she was always kind and understanding no matter how irrational I was feeling. The adoption was ultimately successful but I dont think I would have ...made it out in one piece if it wasnt for her!
