I dedicate my personal attention to each case I take on because top-notch service and quality representation are what I pride myself and my practice on. We're all human, and we all deserve to be treated as such. I'm always real with my clients because to me, you're an individual, not just another case.
Over the course of my nearly two-decades-long career in the legal industry, I have had the opportunity to help countless clients facing difficulties in nearly every area of law. My diverse and expansive experiences have shaped me into the adaptable attorney I am today. When I'm not advocating for my clients, I'm pursuing my other passions, which include being a dedicated horsewoman, a proud family woman, and a devoted dog owner.

In Michigan, if you don't have valid estate planning in place, state statutes and the Courts make these decisions for you. Estate planning does not just determine "who gets your stuff after you die, " and it is not a "one size fits all" proposition. For example: some people do not need a trust, but some do (and no - amount of assets is not the sole determining factor).
The rights at issue in probate and trust disputes are always important, and often address fundamental freedom and self-determination concerns. Capacity challenges, petitions to impose guardianships or conservatorships, and challenges to the validity of wills and trusts are examples of such litigation.
Mattieson Law prides itself on assisting other attorneys when needed. We believe in teamwork and providing the best services possible for all clients, whether they are ours or yours. Keep your clients and your full fee, but avoid feeling overwhelmed. By having Mattieson Law serve as Co-Counsel, you can provide your clients the benefit of an experienced team approach and show your opponents that you've got backup.
I respect my paying clients. Therefore, I offer a short initial, pre-engagement phone consultation for potential clients who are in the process of seeking to engage and pay an attorney for legal services. The purpose and scope of the consultation is to exchange the information needed to evaluate whether or not I can be of assistance to a potential client and what the terms for retention/engagement will be.
