About Lillian E

Lillian E Wong studied government and Arabic language and literature at Dartmouth College, graduating in 2001. She returned to the West Coast for law school and earned her J.D. from UCLA School of Law in 2005. Those formative years combine a liberal arts grounding with legal training.

Her career began in policy. In 2004 she served as an International Policy Coordinator for The National Foundation for Women Legislators. She then moved into the federal courthouse as a judicial extern in 2006. Practical courtroom experience followed a year later when she worked as a summer associate at Goodwin Procter LLP; she became an associate there in 2008.

In 2009 Wong opened a solo practice, operating as The Law Office of Lillian E. Wong, LLC. She spent the next decade building a private practice and representing clients in a range of matters. In 2019 she joined Wong & Boscarine LLC as a partner, a role she holds today. The arc of her career runs from policy work to firm practice to running her own office and then partnering at a small firm.

Wong is admitted to practice in Massachusetts and maintains professional ties beyond the courtroom. Since 2010 she has held memberships in the Council of Parent Lawyers and Advocates and the Special Needs Advocacy Network. Those affiliations indicate ongoing engagement with issues that affect families and children, and they provide professional connections to other attorneys who handle education and advocacy matters.

Her background blends public policy, federal court experience and private practice. The judicial externship offered exposure to court procedures. The years at Goodwin Procter provided firm-side training. Running a solo office required managing both casework and the business side of a practice. Colleagues and clients encounter an attorney familiar with multiple settings and the demands each places on case strategy.

Wong lives and practices in Massachusetts. Her work at Wong & Boscarine LLC involves representing clients in state matters and maintaining ties to parent and special-needs advocacy networks. She continues to handle matters in Massachusetts courts while participating in advocacy efforts through professional organizations.
