This review is from a person who hired this attorney.

Highly recommended

As an expat to the USA, Lynn Aust and her team were incredible in all aspects of helping me settle down - including post-nup, real estate, company set-up, estate planning. I most appreciated her personal engagement, advice and professional guidance in helping me navigate the legal landscape of a new ...continent. I highly recommend her.

Exceptional experience

Lynn and her staff were so very helpful in helping me navigate through the difficult process following the loss of my husband last year. I look forward to having them to turn to for any future legal needs.

More than 5 Stars!

Such a rare find! Lynn B. Aust not only cares about what she does but she truly cares about her clients. And all of her staff have the same standards and great work ethic. There is such a calming and feeling of warmth and welcoming when you walk in the door. No matter the reason you are there, sh...e is patient, understanding, caring and loving. And, most important to us...a woman of faith. May God continue to bless this amazing woman, attorney and friend.

Ethical, Helpful, and Efficient

I contacted Lynn to help my mother and me plan for the handling of her health and estate. The thing that struck me most about Lynn is that she guided us to the most effective solutions--not the ones that could have resulted in the most hours billed. My need was great and I would have followed her cou...nsel without too much concern for the time it took. However, she completely understood what we needed to do and chose the most expeditious path to completion. I am very grateful (and relieved that we landed exactly where we needed to be... and just in time.) Thank you to Lynn and her team!

Wisdom and a Lifelong experience

I met Lynn Aust, Esq about 10 years ago, I was immediately taken by her ample knowledge of world facts in addition to the practical and necessary aspects of Estate Planning. She did a superb job on the initial setup of my revocable trust in 2013. Her input and suggestions produced the final edition I... needed at that time. Thereafter, as life events generate change, Lynn amended the trust on two additional occasions; the most recent just a few weeks ago. Moreover, in 2014, I contracted the services of Ms. Aust again, this time to manage contractual issues with several peers all members of a partnership. Again, her stellar performance resolved many issues and her vision for the future has proven that her experience and wisdom once again were right on target. Her staff is attentive and always very helpful, the fees are reasonable and in line with that of other attorneys with similar specialization. Lastly, what makes a huge difference to me well beyond the accolades is that---I trust her!!!

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.
