Estate Planning
Lasting Protection
Knowing that you are protected frees up your mental space so you can do bigger and better things.
From choosing a person to make medical decisions after the unthinkable happens, to ensuring your children are protected by caretakers you trust, begin your estate plan today. Contact Mateskon Law.
An Estate Plan that
Fits Your Family
Everyone is different and has different needs. This is why it’s important to have a customized estate plan that fits your family needs. An estate plan benefits your loved ones by giving them a step-by-step guide to help them manage your estate in the event you pass away or become incapacitated.
In the past, estate planning might have been something that made people think: big money – big assets and big costs. Today, every single person should have an estate plan that is affordable and protects assets in any tax bracket. An estate plan can protect beneficiaries, ensure caretaking of children, reduce inheritance taxes, avoid probate court, and so much more.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Estate Planning important?
Estate planning is important because it protects an individual, their estate, children, and family.
When should I start Estate Planning?
Typically, individuals should start their estate planning when they legally become an adult. For most in the United States, this will be when they are 18 years of age.
How often should I update my Estate Plan?
Frequent review and revision of your estate plan is important. Although some people update their estate plan more often, we recommend reviewing it at least once every 3 to 5 years, or after a major life event occurs (e.g. marriage, divorce, birth, death, etc.).
