Excellent Estate Planning

My husband and I were looking to create an estate plan once our daughter was born. We recognized the need for a will, but after further education we needed a Trust as well. Ms. Iaria and her team at Lillig & Thorsness helped us navigate the process. They explained each step thoroughly, and I felt ...confident and comfortable with them during the process. I had many follow up questions and Angela was always available to answer them without hesitation.

Excellent Lawyer!

Angela helped me with my divorce process and it could not have gone more smooth! She was so extremely professional, thorough, timely, and compassionate throughout the entire process. I am so grateful to have worked with her during this time. She made the process smooth, easy to understand, and always... had my best interest at heart.

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.
