also known as Joe Mathis
I primarily focus my practice in the areas of estate planning, estate and trust administration, and elder law. I believe that everyone should have a well-structured and carefully thought out plan for disability and death. As a result of this philosophy, I have built my practice by representing a wide range of clients, including parents with young children, parents with special needs children, business owners, retirees, elderly individuals, and others. I do not believe in a “one size fits all” approach to planning. I take time to learn my clients' needs and objectives and then develop a plan that is customized for their unique situations. If you would like an experienced attorney to represent you in one of these areas of law, or even if you think you may have some other legal need, I welcome your call and am happy to discuss your specific situation with you.

Easy estate planning
Worked with Joe on a few occasions to prepare wills and trusts. He made it as painless as possible. He was easy to work with & relate to and provided us with honest advice. All documents were accurately prepared. We’ll happily call him for our future needs.

Very thorough, great experience!
Mr. Mathis helped us create a will when we were expecting our first baby. He made sure to use language that would account for any family members we may add later on. He was very thorough and very clear, and we rest easy knowing that our family is taken care of.
