Deborah Gail Matthews

Ms. Matthews was considerate of my needs and time, helping me revise my will and other estate documents. Fine service all around.

I am a 60 year old career professional with two properties and nearing retirement with a big family. Deb assembled all my legal papers including a revocable trust, power of attorney, health care power of attorney, deeds, and will. She is an expert, patient, kind, willing to explain numerous complicated legal scenarios, savvy, and dedicated to educating her clients. For anyone of any age, I highly recommend her for estate planning! She is on top of current legal needs for all.

Deborah is a wonderful attorney who guided me through the entire process of making a will, deciding on medical directives and establishing a trust for my heirs. She answered my many questions thoughtfully and with a great deal of legal knowledge. I highly recommend her services.

Very thorough and detailed. Lawyer dedicated to one area of law and knows it well. Deborah explains everything and poses questions that you don't even think about. I was recommended to her by my bank as I wanted to update all my documents and possibly create a trust. In her meetings she talks to you instead of at you. She explains all documents and is willing to answer all your questions. I would certainly recommend her for all of your financial and estate planning needs.

I called Ms Matthews of Alexandria due to a family crisis with my aunt. She was able to meet with us that same day. Ms Matthews ensured that all our concerns were addressed and my aunt and I both left feeling assured that our legal needs had been met. She provided us with all the necessary paper work and explained it all to us in language we understood. Also, she made several suggestions that proved invaluable.
I was very pleased that when I called with a follow up question several months later

Deborah Matthews is brilliantboth in the intricacies of trust & estate law and also in her inherent grace. She is proficient, smart, and insightful. Her ability to explain the benefits and pitfalls of different options is incredibly appreciated. I was fortunate to work with Deborah several years ago when setting up my trust and on a recent question. I have already recommended her to family and close friends. Working with Deborah takes the worry out of planning for the future she is the best!

My first experience with Ms. Matthews was when our cherished caregiver was near death without any legal documents in place. We reached out over a holiday weekend, and Ms. Matthews went above and beyond to help finalize the necessary paperwork. Her prompt attention and caring response allowed us to handle funeral arrangements with dignity. My family has continued to consult with Ms. Matthews on a variety of issues and she has always been extremely helpful and a dedicated professional.

I was very fortunate to retain Deborah G. Matthews as my Attorney in assisting me with the duties associated with administering my uncle's estate. This was my first experience with the probate process, and it seemed quite daunting at first. As it turned out, navigating through the probate process was made much easier thanks to the exceptional experience, knowledge, organization, support, guidance and professionalism of Deb and her team. I was provided with the necessary information, documents and referrals. Communication from her office was courteous, timely and professional, and follow-up by her office was performed in a timely manner. I am most grateful to Deb and her team for services, guidance and support provided. I highly recommend Deb and her team for their dedication, experience, and ability to effectively and efficiently provide the necessary legal assistance associated with the handling of any estate matter, with compassion, professionalism, and respect.
