Solid but could improve communication
I worked with Brianna Marquis on a complex estate planning matter, and while she clearly has strong expertise in trusts and estates—backed by her recognition as a Rising Star—I found her communication style a bit rigid. She provided thorough legal advice, leveraging her LL.M. in Taxation, but follow-ups felt slow, and I had to chase for updates. The final documents were well-crafted, but the experience left me wishing for more responsiveness. Overall, competent but not the most client-focused.
Experienced but communicative gaps
I worked with Brianna L. Marquis for estate planning needs, and her expertise was clear—especially given her tax law background and Super Lawyers recognition. She handled the legal nuances well, particularly around trust structures, which was my main concern. However, while her knowledge was solid, I found her availability a bit inconsistent. Responses to my follow-up questions took longer than expected, and the back-and-forth felt slightly drawn out. The final documents were thorough, but I wish there had been more proactive check-ins to align on priorities. A stronger commitment to communication would have elevated this experience. Still, I have no doubts about her competence in trusts and estates.
