Estate Planning for the Whole FamilyWe work with families of all kinds; those who are married or single, with a traditional family or a blended one, and those who are just starting out or looking at a life well-lived.. I graduated with honors from the University of Washington School of Law in 1980. After working in the legal field for 28+ years, I took a 10-year break before returning to law in 2022.. So, I AM BACK! I am rebuilding what I started with the benefit of my life experience and the resources of the Personal Family Lawyer program. The programs systems create an efficiency that allows me to focus on what I like best: getting to know our clients so we can create comprehensive customized plans for them.. I am the proud mother of Megan and Alec and grandmother of Jameson and triplets; McKinley, Jaden and Jaxson.. Because of my grandparenting experience, I am especially interested in working with grandparents – who want to protect themselves, their wonderful adult children, and their adored grandchildren.. A former client who wants to work with me again, says: “Thank you for coming back to help those of us who love your wonderful help with our futures and how we want t leave things for our loved ones. You are the best! Thank you, Melanie D.”.. We start by scheduling a Wealth Planning Session (which usually lasts 2 hours). Once scheduled, we send a Life and Legacy Inventory and Assessment to be completed as best you can before the Wealth Planning Session. We also ask for copies of all Deeds, financial statements evidencing your ownership of bank accounts, investment accounts, retirement accounts, and annuities, as well as stocks or bond certificates. In addition, we need copies of any LLC or Partnership Agreements and your previous estate planning documents. At that session, I make recommendations regarding a customized estate plan and the corresponding flat fee; half of which is paid upfront and the balance paid at the completion of the estate plan. (Because we don’t bill hourly for estate planning, there are no surprises.) The signing of the documents usually takes place 4 weeks after the planning session.. After completion and implementation of the estate plan, we offer free 3-year review sessions to determine if there is a need for a change in your estate plan. (The client is responsible for scheduling those 3-year reviews).. We also offer plans by which we provide life and legacy planning to family members, such as adult children, parents and grandparents.

Stephanie Petersen

3411 Colby Ave , Everett , Washington 98201
Practice Areas: Family
I am a partner at Deno Millikan Law Firm, PLLC. I’m a trial lawyer, and I use my legal skills to help my clients in a broad variety of cases. I’ve been honored by the Willamette University College of Law in Salem, Oregon by serving as Note and Comment Editor of the Willamette Law Review.. I’ve been identified as a Washington State “Super Lawyer” by Washington Law and Politics Magazine in 2003. I’ve been active in the Snohomish County Bar Association, and in 2010 served as Trustee, being elected as Vice President in 2011, and the Snohomish County Bar President for the year 2012. I continually work with other attorneys and in seminars to develop better and better trial skills. Part of that work has been through training offered to trial attorneys in the Spence Trial Lawyers College regional programs. The fact is, that most legal trials are battles involving the mind, persuasion and advocacy, but often not recognized is the fact that trials become matters of the heart as well. Developing these skills and my caring for my clients’ issues has been the key to success for me, and for my clients.. Snohomish County is the place where I was born and the place where I grew up. This community shaped my vision of who I wanted to be in the world and how I wanted to live. The values that I grew up with are the value of hard work and the satisfaction that comes from hard work, the value of integrity in dealing with my clients, my associates, the Courts and opposing attorneys. Finally, I was taught and enjoy the happiness that comes from helping someone else. These values led me to become a lawyer, and these values are a cornerstone of who I am as a lawyer and in helping my clients resolve their important and difficult problems.. My work as a trial lawyer encompasses a variety of legal areas, most of which may require a skilled negotiator or advocate at trial. Complex divorces, personal injury cases, and difficult commercial and business problems occupy the bulk of my legal time.However, we live in a community that has a lot of non-trial problems, involving leases, contracts, land disputes, and all sorts of other problems. Helping my clients solve their weighty problems is one of my favorite parts of the legal profession.  I also serve as an arbitrator with Snohomish County’s Mandatory Arbitration Program.. I always knew that I would return to Everett after finishing law school, to raise my family here. I love being able to share the same things with my daughter that I enjoyed as a kid. Whether it is skiing at Stevens Pass with my family and friends, walking though the Evergreen State Fair on a rainy August afternoon or hauling in a crab pot off Whidbey Island, this is the place that grounds me.. If you are reading this and looking for an attorney, give me a call or email me at  and let’s talk about the solutions that may be available to you.
