Sean Andrew Murphy Attorney At Law offers invaluable advice in developing estate plans for clients in the Lansdowne, PA area. Most people understand the importance of having a Will to make sure that assets pass to intended heirs. However, a comprehensive estate plan should also include an Advanced Health Care Directive, also called a Living Will, and a General Durable Power of Attorney.
We will make every effort to assure that your family's assets will be disposed in the way you feel is best. Whether you are planning for the future or administering a loved one's estate in the probate process, you can count on us to provide the guidance you need. Without a detailed estate plan, taxes, funeral costs and other expenses can eat away at your estate. We listen to your concerns and help build an estate plan that maximizes the benefit to your family.
Every family has different estate planning needs. Parents of young children frequently ask, "Who will care for my children if I were to pass away tomorrow?" On the other hand, the elderly often struggle to protect their assets while seeking the medical treatment they need. We will do everything we can to meet your estate planning needs.
Guiding You Through Probate
After the death of a loved one, it is essential that the deceased's affairs are put in order. This includes probating the decedent's estate, making sure that the debts of the estate are paid, and seeing that the heirs receive the full inheritance left to them.
Oftentimes, those responsible for these matters, the Executors and / or Administrators of the decedent's estate, are overwhelmed either because they are still grieving the loss of their loved one or they do not understand what they are required to do or both.
We will help you understand your obligations as the personal representative of an estate and help you accomplish the necessary tasks to ensure that your loved one's estate is properly administered and their Will properly executed.
