"Lisa explains everything in plain a easy to understand language. She is excellent at helping people navigate the legal system and doesn’t make things more complicated (costly) for her clients. Lisa is compassionate but also practical. I would (and have) recommend her to anyone in need of her services."

"Our work with Lisa was correct, efficient and cost-effective. We were very satisfied with her work." - SC

"Lisa did several things for us. First, she set up a Special Needs Trust for a disabled relative and she was speedy and detailed and always available for consultation and changes. Then, when the trustee had to be changed, she turned on a dime and got everything done, making the time to come to Raymond for a telephone conference with out-of-state relatives so we could get documents redone accurately and in a timely matter. My cousins were very impressed, and I could not have been more pleased. Excellent, responsive service and a terrific person. She was so terrific that, when I found I needed a will, I could think of no one but Lisa and I was equally impressed with her acumen and help with my will and estate planning. Highly recommended! " -JC

"I have been on a journey with my dad's dementia. It's been very confusing for me. I have had many angels helping me through this journey. Lisa Friedlander has been one of those angels guiding me through obtaining the Guardianship of my dad. Lisa is someone I felt I could trust when I first met her. She was, and is, empathetic - caring and professional at the same time. Not only has she helped me gain Guardianship of my father, but she will be helping me develop a will in the future. She has provided and advised me throughout this process. I am so glad I have this benefit through work and it enabled me to meet Lisa." - Naomi P.

"Our family has used Lisa twice for estate / probate assistance. Lisa responded quickly, was attentive, friendly and extremely knowledgeable. She was flexible and willing meet at our house or another convenient location in a timely fashion. When we first met with the lawyer of the deceased for the last minor estate being settled they stated that there would be loads of paperwork to complete as well as court filings to settle the estate. A subsequent call and then brief meeting with Lisa concluded with filling out one simple form, presenting it to the bank and that was it – the estate was available to settle! Obviously Lisa knows her way around estate law and wasn’t trying to make extra work to line her pockets - and we appreciated that! The next time we need a lawyer – Lisa will be the first one we call." - DK.

"With Lisa, the client comes first. Every client is treated with courtesy and is guaranteed effective representation. Her expertise and integrity have earned her a reputation as one of Southern Maine's most effective and sought-after lawyers. I was lucky to have her represent me." – Lou N.

"I really enjoyed having Lisa as my attorney. I had many questions and she always answered them promptly. She was very understanding with me and my lack of understanding the legal wording of things. I really appreciated her patience and her guidance, while I was able to work with her." – DP

"I can't say enough good things about Lisa's process and results in managing my complex divorce case from start to finish. My former spouse hired a supposedly high-powered (and I am sure very expensive) 'star' attorney who was aggressive and forceful. Lisa turned the tables, set the tone, never backed down, and achieved stellar results in my case. I would recommend her without reservation." – AB

"I highly recommend Lisa as a lawyer. Lisa is kind, compassionate, and very knowledgeable. Lisa gave me great advice even when she knew it may not lead to a paycheck. I found her very ethical and easy to talk to. Lisa was able to explain complex legal protocols pertaining to insurance companies in a way that made sense. She earned my trust and I would use her again." – Russ

“I would trust Ms. Friedlander with any legal concern. She is aware, responsive, persistent and very caring. I was listened to, and heard, and my options were clearly explained to me, fairly and without judgment. I honestly can't think of anyone I would trust more.” – JEC

"I originally called Lisa with some general probate questions. She ended up not only fully answering all my questions but actually helping me solve my problem completely!! All in one phone call!! And I live in the Seattle area!! It was all wrapped up by the following day! The 1st attorney’s office I reached out to set me up for a video appointment for a month out for $425 for just the initial consult!!! Needless to say when I have further legal business in Maine I will be gladly looking up Lisa again! A+!" -Dana

"Lisa was extremely helpful from the minute I started speaking with her on the telephone. My husband had recently passed away and she helped me process my will. She was sincere and did not try to take advantage of a situation which I often felt from the few other lawyers I contacted. I highly recommend Lisa." -Sally

"Lisa did a great job advocating for me before the probate judge. Very happy with the service she provided and would recommend her highly." -Scott

"Lisa is compassionate, understanding, knowledgeable, anticipatory and confident in her responses. Her certainty allows me to proceed assuredly." -JL
