Wills & Estate Planning Attorneys SERVING INDIANA, PA AND WESTERN PA
We highly recommend preparing a Will for the benefit of you and your loved ones. A Will is a legal document that describes how you would like your property and other assets to be distributed after your death. Wills are also used to nominate guardians for minor children, dependents, or pets, create trusts, make charitable gifts, and ensure your wishes are carried out in the way you desire.
Navigating Your Estate Planning Questions
- Who receives a portion of your assets
- Who receives particular belongings
- What assets are donated to charity
- Who will care for your children after an accident
- Who will manage the distribution of your estate
Keeping Your Will Current with Every Life Turn
We recommend our clients to review and/or update their wills every 4-6 years in order to assure their wishes are aligned with their current circumstances. Major life changes may include having children, getting married or divorced, buying property, the passing of the executor of your estate, the passing of your beneficiaries, a general shift in family dynamics, or a significant change in your financial situation. In these events, it is imperative that you update your will to reflect such changes. Whether you’re experiencing major life events or simply wish to make adjustments to your will, we’re here to assist you every step of the way.

A Power of Attorney is a legal document that names a person who can make decisions, whether in health care or financial affairs, for you in the event you are unable to communicate these for yourself. It is important to prepare documents that assign these roles, and it is especially important to choose someone you trust to execute crucial decisions for you in the event you may not.
