About Matthew
Biography
I work with families to develop thoughtful, coordinated estate plans. These plans are customized to fit the dynamics of each family to reduce the likelihood of any disharmony as assets transfer among generations. My work typically balances handling real estate, family businesses, and other wealth with concerns such as equalization of children, handling an untimely death, business succession, asset protection, and tax management.

Thoughful, organized and thorough.
I have hired Attorney Rak personally, and I have referred him to other family members for numerous estate, trust and tax issues. His knowledge in those areas of law are second to none. He is also very prompt in returning calls, and when required, he is a zealous, but ethical, advocate.

One of the most knowledgeable attorneys in the area.
Attorney Rak has helped my family countless times for wills, estates, probate, and general orphans court matters countless times. He is responsive. Sensitive to difficult issues. And he has impeccable attention to detail.
