About Rylee
Biography
I became an attorney because I believe in the power that comes from people working together and enjoy working closely with my clients to provide the greatest and most efficient service possible. Prior to forming McDermott Law, I worked at Van Cott, Bagley, Cornwall & McCarthy in that firm’s Tax, Estate, & Benefit Planning Group. While in New York, I also worked in the State and Local Tax Group of the law firm McDermott Will & Emery. In my off time I enjoy spending time with my daughter, running, sports, and enjoying the good life.

Excellent resource for my estate planning needs.
We approached Rylee for our estate planning needs a few months ago. He was very professional and set up an appointment for us and told all of the exact documents and plans to bring to the meeting.
