Many firm clients turn to us for personal legal services, including trusts and estates, real estate, immigration, personal injury and family law.
Backgrounds in industries including health care, banking and insurance combined with the ability to navigate through municipal and government channels, puts the firm and its clients in the best position to succeed. It is that ability to identify the underlying issue, provide practical advice and serve as a trusted counselor that has allowed the firm to establish long-term relationships that have lasted for generations.
With offices directly across from the Bayfront Convention Center and Lake Erie on 100 State Street, the firm and its more than 40 attorneys are easily accessible to our local clients. At the same time, the firm's downtown Erie location makes it easy to handle matters throughout the tri-state area. Whether you are in Ohio, New York or across the border in Canada, MacDonald Illig can provide the depth of service and experience without the overhead and expense often associated with firms in Cleveland, Buffalo, Pittsburgh and Toronto. The location also allows our attorneys easy travel routes to clients throughout the U.S. and abroad.
As solid corporate citizens, MacDonald Illig and its attorneys contribute heavily to Erie's legal, civic and charitable organizations. It is that mutual sense of commitment between community and the firm that allows it to continue to grow after more than 100 years in business.
In changing times, MacDonald Illig continues to work with clients that seek creative means to a positive resolution. Whether the use of alternative dispute resolution makes a corporate or domestic matter more effective and efficient than litigation, alternative fee structures make more sense, or simply through the use of improved technologies, the firm understands the pressures and expectations of our clients.
We look forward to having the opportunity to serve your legal needs. Please feel free to contact our attorneys or staff for additional information.
