Casner & Edwards announces that Lorraine P. Stark has joined the firm as a Partner in the firm’s Family Law Group. Stark focuses her practice on all areas of probate and family court litigation.
With more than a decade of experience, Stark represents clients in divorce, paternity, child custody, child support, alimony, property division, removal, adoption, as well as modification and contempt matters. She also assists clients in pre-marital planning, including pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements. Her fiduciary litigation practice includes guardianships and conservatorships, will contests and representation for trustees, executors and beneficiaries.
Stark’s successes involve securing disproportionate divisions of marital estates, invalidating will and trust documents when the circumstances warranted and ensuring unemancipated minors end up with the protective parent in custody battles. Prior to joining Casner & Edwards, Stark was a Partner in the Private Client Group at Burns & Levinson LLP in Boston.
Casner & Edwards’ Co-Managing Partner Michael Zullas said, “Lorraine brings years of experience in probate and family litigation to the firm and we are thrilled to have her join the family law team.” Co-Managing Partner Marc Fitzgerald added, “She is a fierce advocate for her clients, consistently helping them navigate the legal process with the utmost compassion.”
Stark has been named to Massachusetts Super Lawyers “Rising Stars” since 2017, Best Lawyers in America “Ones to Watch” since 2021 and Boston Magazine’s “Top Lawyers” in 2022.
