Services
Cholewka Law has been providing thoughtful legal representation to families in Gilbert and surrounding communities since 2010. We are passionate about helping our clients protect their loved ones and assets by designing and implementing customized, comprehensive estate plans. We also guide our clients through one of the most difficult times in their lives, the loss of a loved one, by settling estates through probate and administering trusts.
Upon moving to Arizona my husband and I felt the need to redo our wills and trust. After attending a seminar given by Becky Cholewka, we knew that we had found the correct law firm to handle our affairs. She is extremely knowledgeable and very approachable. In fact, the entire staff are all personable and helpful.
Many people think that "estate planning" is only for extraordinarily wealthy families, celebrities and the like. Not so. Every family can benefit from having an estate plan of its own, one designed and implemented by an attorney who focuses on this highly specialized area of the law. Without your own plan, the state of Arizona will control how your assets are distributed after you pass away.
A Will, also known as a Last Will and Testament, is a legal document controlling how property is distributed after a person passes away. It is one of the most fundamental legal documents in estate planning. After your death, the Will must be filed by the probate court in order for it to become effective.
There are a number of different types of trusts, capable of helping you accomplish a wide range of planning goals. Together they represent some of the most powerful tools in the estate planner's toolbox. One of the most commonly used trusts is called a Revocable Living Trust. An Arizona Revocable Living Trust gives you complete control over your assets while you are alive and how they will be distributed after you pass away.

I am a lawyer who does not practice in the area of trusts and estates. Was looking for a lawyer in the East Valley for my boyfriend's elderly mother. My own trust and estates lawyer, who is located in central Phoenix, referred her to Becky Cholewka. I have been very impressed with Becky's knowledge, professionalism, and ability to develop solutions to sticky family issues. High praise to Becky and her entire team for the wonderful job they did. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone!

Cholewka Law has gone above and beyond from day one. Rarely do you see a team so focused on doing what’s best for the client vs their ability to make money. They have been community first since they opened and are always wanting to educate. Very easy to talk to and know you are getting an honest assessment with anything that comes up. Highly recommend.

Very thorough documents covering every (likely) circumstance usually encountered by families. Very professional during office meetings and in final product. Becky was very willing to answers questions via e-mail during process . Multiple uses of referrent titles and their roles and responsibilities were confusing. Best to review each and every page several times for accuracy in producing final product. A fair price for all that you get...including piece of mind.

As a fellow estate planning attorney in the East Valley, I am happy to have such a competent and courteous colleague. Becky and her staff represent the epitome of professionalism. She is also very knowledgeable and serves as a resource to other attorneys in the area. Often in estate planning it is important to take a collaborative approach to assisting clients; so its good to know other quality attorneys in the area. I always look forward to the opportunity to work with Becky. She's great.
