So helpful, so patient!

Catherine has recently been helping us with a real messy estate issue with our family's trust, and could NOT have been more helpful or patient with all of our follow-up questions and concerns. She responds in a very timely manner, including nights and weekends, and was always there for us. Made the p...rocess of talking to a lawyer very pleasant indeed!

Catherine Wieder has been tremendously helpful

My dad passed away recently, leaving us with a lot of questions about his estate and how his trust would work. Catherine was willing to answer any email and spend several hours of a lovely Saturday evening patiently explaining everything to us over the phone. She has been a wonderful resource and ext...remely knowledgeable about the process surrounding estates.

Faith in my Trust

My husband and I had a trust drawn up by Catherine Wieder. I appreciated the thoroughness in which my trust was handled. It was very comprehensive and yet was done in a timely manner. Catherine Wieder is a legal professional I would definitely recommend to others.

Relationship: Worked together on matter

"I worked with Catherine on implementing a special needs trust for a client in CA that was receiving assets from a CT estate. She was easy to work with despite the distance and made the client feel comfortable. I would recommend her for these types of matters."

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.
