Erin M. Martoglio
Erin is a native of Fort Wayne, and earned her B.A. in anthropology from Indiana University, and M.A. in humanities from the University of Chicago. She spent ten years working first as an editor and freelance writer, and then as a management consultant, in St. Augustine, Florida. Her consulting work, involving planning and implementing complex procurements, contracts, and program management for utilities and government agencies, sparked her interest in the law, and she graduated magna cum laude from Florida Coastal School of Law in Jacksonville, Florida in 2012.
Bloomington always held a special place in her heart, and in 2012, Erin and her family returned to Indiana. Her practice focuses on estate planning, business transactions and small business needs, contract review and drafting, and probate and trust administration. Her favorite aspect of practicing law is helping clients identify creative and effective solutions to their issues. Her background in consulting and as a co-founder of a small business, helps her take a broad view when considering her clients' legal needs and issues.
Erin is active in the community, serving currently on the board of Monroe County Bar Association , the Community Foundation of Bloomington and Monroe County, Bloomington Parks Foundation, and the Bloomington Health Foundation. She has also served on the board of the Hoosier Hills Estate Planning Council and is a member of the Indiana State Bar Association.
In her free time, Erin enjoys spending time with her family. She loves all dogs, but is pretty sure that Boxers are the best. Her current Boxer is a brindle named Silver Plate Malone. Erin has been an avid runner for over 30 years, having completed multiple marathons and ultra-marathons, but her training goal now is to just keep on running into her 90s. She also enjoys working to clear invasive plant species from her family’s land, figure skating, gardening and cooking.

Stephanie Dillard
Stephanie was raised and educated on the East Coast, moved to the Gulf Coast and then the West Coast before moving to Bloomington with her family. Coast to coast travels have allowed Stephanie to be a legal assistant in multiple states for over 20 years. After several years of being "retired," she joined the team at Freitag and Martoglio in 2024 as a part-time legal assistant. She still loves and misses the ocean.
With two grown daughters, one who owns a small business and one who is in college and plays the banjo in a local band, Stephanie found herself with free time and in that free time, became an accidental gardener. She loves growing flowers and vegetables during the warmer seasons. When she is not gardening, she assists her husband with the independent films he writes and directs. When not busy with her family, Stephanie enjoys hanging out with her zoo, which consists of two dogs, two parrots, a frog, a spider and a snake. When it is warm you can find her in the garden and when it is cold she will be dreaming of the ocean.
You can reach Stephanie Monday-Friday 9AM-2PM, at 812-676-6030 x2 for scheduling appointments.
