Navigating Mecklenburg County Probate After a Loss
If you’ve lost a loved one in Matthews or anywhere in Mecklenburg County, we can help you navigate probate from start to finish. Mecklenburg County probate matters are handled at the courthouse in Charlotte, and we guide you through every step — filings, notifications, distributions, and final accounting.
ProbateWhy a Trust Might Be Smarter Than a Will
A will is a set of instructions for a judge. A trust is a set of instructions for your family — no judge required. For Matthews families with equity in their home, retirement accounts, or assets spread across accounts, a revocable living trust can save months of court time and thousands in legal fees. Plus, it keeps your financial details completely private.
Trusts
The Documents That Protect You While You’re Still Alive
Most people plan for what happens after death but forget about what happens during a medical emergency. A Financial Power of Attorney gives someone you trust access to your accounts. A Health Care Power of Attorney puts them in charge of medical decisions. A Living Will makes your end-of-life wishes crystal clear. We don’t treat these as add-ons. They’re core to every plan.
Ancillary DocumentsFrequently Asked Questions
Do I need a Matthews-based attorney for my estate plan?

Where is the Mecklenburg County probate court?
Probate matters in Mecklenburg County are handled by the Clerk of Superior Court at the Mecklenburg County Courthouse, 832 East 4th Street, Charlotte, NC 28202.
What’s the difference between a will and a trust?
