Wills & Estates
Wills are essentially written instructions designating a
person’s wishes regarding the distribution of his or her
assets
and property after death. A will directs to whom and in what
shares the property and assets will be distributed, and can designate a
guardian for minor children, name administrators of the estate, and
create various trusts. In the absence of a will, however,
Pennsylvania “intestacy” law will provide for the
administration of your estate and direct how and to whom your property
will be divided and distributed.
After a person’s passing, certain procedures must be
undertaken
to formally administer the deceased estate, including the transmitting
of property and assets to beneficiaries. This remains so
whether a person dies with or without a will.
For a free consultation to discuss the making of a will, or if you have
questions concerning the administration of an estate, please contact
our office to schedule an appointment.
