Instead, we devote time and focus to every one of our clients to ensure that we establish the most appropriate and effective protections to keep the future as bright as possible.

Your Trusted Legal Advocate During the Washington Probate Process.
Probate is the legal process that oversees the administration of a person’s estate when they pass away. Whether you have been selected to serve as the personal representative or executor of an estate and need counsel to represent you to file the probate case in court and assist you in administering the estate in probate, or a challenge arises during the probate process in Washington, Kristina Mattson Law is here to answer your questions and support your best interests at every phase of the probate process.
Additionally, we recognize that some people wish to avoid the probate process altogether. If your goal is to put legal strategies in place, such as Trusts or Transfer on Death Deeds (among other estate planning tools), that enable your estate to bypass the probate process, we can help you do so. Regardless of the specific circumstances of your situation, you can trust that our law firm has the skills, strategies, and experience necessary to help you obtain your desired outcome.
