Services
To provide the public fast, effective, professional and cost-effective expertise in the following legal fields: estate planning: including Trusts, Wills, Powers of Attorney and Health Care Directives; Social Security Disability cases: SSI or SDI; tax law defense for individuals and businesses before the IRS and Mississippi Department of Revenue; Family Law: including divorce, child custody, contempt actions and modifications of final decrees of divorce; Probate of Wills, Administration of Estates, Will contests and abuses of Powers of Attorney; and personal injury cases.
Probate is a process that will legally prove a will, and confirm that all applicable taxes and debts are paid on an inheritance. Mestayer Law Firm, PLLC prefers that your family not be subjected to the tiring process of probate court when you may already be coping with the death of a family member.
Mestayer Law Firm, PLLC has extensive experience with estate planning and hold an additional degree in taxation law. Trusts are useful for any socioeconomic class. A trust has four components: the trustmaker, the person who creates the trust; the benefactor, the person(s) who receives the assets; the successor trustee, who ensures that the assets and property are distributed as intended; the assets themselves, whether money or property.
If you've been denied a Social Security or disability claim, it can be frustrating cutting through the red tape when filing an appeal or understanding why you were initially denied benefits. Our firm understands Mississippi's Disability Determination Services agency policies and can talk with you on a personal level to examine your claim.
A will or trust contains instructions to distribute an inheritance, which can be complicated. We have extensive experience with estate planning and hold an additional degree in taxation law. When you've been harmed in an accident, we will work hard to make sure those responsible compensate you for your injuries.

Klark Kent is my email handle. I am actually a real person, John, and have turned to Mestayer And Associates for years for all of my legal questions and needs. I have found Mr Elliot Mestayer to be personable, professional, and consummately knowledgeable.
He handled my Social Security disability case several years ago, and resolved it my favor. In fact, I was approved on my first attempt, which I have later learned is very unusual as it usually takes two or three reviews by a judge, and several years.
I heartily recommend him for anyone's legal needs.

I had a family situation and asked Mr. Mestayer for advice. He was extremely knowledgeable, professional and told me exactly what needed to be done. I will use him for any family, social security, etc issues in the future. It's refreshing to find such an honest lawyer that really cares about his clients!

Mr. Mestayer is a great attorney that helped me with my Estate Planning needs for a very reasonable price.
He listens to what you have to say and takes the time that your case properly needs. He is hands on and does not just turn you over to an assistant. He usually is able to see you within 24 to 48 hours of calling to make an appointment.
He helped my brother with getting custody of his son.
He helped my nephew with legally changing his name.
I highly recommend Mr. Mestayer. He is extremely knowledgeable in many different aspects and areas of the law, so if you have multiple needs he can
