What Our Friends Say

“Rebecca made us feel comfortable and secure in our estate planning. Her recommendations came without pressure and with a level of detail that made us confident that we were making the best choices for our family. The process was simple, our time was well used, and getting to work with someone who we could relate to as a person was very appreciated.”

“My wife and I would highly recommend Rebecca to anyone looking for trust and estate planning legal counsel. In fact, we already have. She is a fantastic communicator who is able to explain the entire planning process in great detail and in plan English. She is incredibly knowledgeable, thorough, and efficient. She makes what may seem like a difficult task of setting up a trust understandable, and completely manageable. Every client situation, like my wife’s and mine, is different than others, and she navigated the nuance and complexity with ease, and provided outstanding guidance and advisory to us on a variety of topics. Rebecca is a great professional and person. We feel fortunate to work with her.”

“Rebecca gave my husband and I a thorough understanding of all of our options when it came to putting together a will and/or trust. She was so easy to understand and made us feel comfortable with any questions we had. We especially loved the family emergency card she gave us to put in our wallets. This makes us feel even more secure that if anything should happen to us, people will know we have children and who to get in touch with concerning their care as fast as possible. We have recommended Rebecca to friends, and would definitely do it again if we knew someone looking for help with estate planning documents!”

“Rebecca Matthias is a trustworthy and intelligent attorney. We selected Rebecca as we desired to establish a will and trust. At the time, we were months away from having our first child and wanted to prepare plans for our family’s future. Throughout our conversations and meetings with Rebecca, we were continuously provided outstanding service and thoughtful guidance. We felt completely comfortable during this process as she supplied detailed explanations with a tactful approach to protect our privacy. Rebecca was an absolute pleasure to work with and we highly recommend her to those desiring a superior legal experience.”

Real Word of Mouth

“We recently sought out Rebecca Mathias to assist us in updating our family trust. We were very impressed with her review of the changes which had occurred since we first established our trust, and were very grateful for her guidance in making it current. She also asked us to consider details like who would be immediately responsible for our daughter if something happened to us, until the guardians could get here from out of state. We had not addressed this previously, and we’re impressed with Rebecca’s thoroughness and professionalism. We highly recommend her as a partner in your estate planning efforts.”

“It was long over due and finally at age 55 I have made the steps to getting a will set up for my family. Rebecca was so kind, helpful and professional. I brought my 23 year old daughter to the second meeting, and Rebecca was able to explain everything in a way that made both my daughter and I feel very comfortable with the difficult topics and decisions.
It’s very comforting to know that if and when something happens to me, my kids would have such a caring person to help answer any of their questions.”

“Working with Rebecca has been a pleasure. Before we started working with her, I was apprehensive about setting up a trust and what doing so would require. Rebecca made the process much simpler and much easier than I thought it would be, and she was able to answer all my questions and concerns. I cannot recommend Rebecca Matthias more highly”

Marie H.

“Rebecca breaks down each component of the relevant laws in bite size pieces, she is very organized, efficient and structured in her presentation of materials. Most of all, she takes the intimidation out of reaching out to a lawyer in the first place and is very fair and transparent with regards to pricing. We have already passed along her information to our closest friends – we were lucky to have been referred to her in the first place! Truly recommend.”
