Cassandra L. Ely

Cassandra Ely joined LeVander, Gillen & Miller, P.A. in 2023 as a paralegal, specializing in estate planning, trust administration, and probate administration. Her dedication and expertise led to her promotion to an associate attorney in 2025, shortly after earning her Juris Doctor and becoming a member of the Minnesota Bar.

Prior to attending law school and becoming a lawyer, Cass was a paralegal for several years in the areas of compliance, regulatory governance, and employment law. It was her growing desire to help clients through difficult situations that prompted her to pursue her law degree. In 2025, she graduated from the Blended Program through Mitchell Hamline School of Law while working full-time and raising a family. One of her proudest achievements was being selected as an Associate on the 50th edition of the Mitchell Hamline Law Review and making the Dean’s List.

With a strong background in legal support and a passion for estate planning, Cass is committed to providing clients attentive and thorough legal guidance with compassion. She leverages her extensive experience in litigation, compliance, and estate matters to help clients navigate complex legal processes with confidence.

Outside of the office, Cass can be found knitting while listening to a good audiobook or playing games with her husband and son at a local coffeeshop. Favorites include Cribbage, Battleship, and Fluxx. She and her family are also avid Lego collectors.
