Our firm routinely handles all matters regarding estate planning that a typical person or family needs to have complete peace of mind that they and their family are taken care of in times of need. We counsel individuals about their options to preserve wealth and prevent unnecessary expenditures that deplete the size of their estate that is otherwise able to be passed on to their heirs.

A will, also known as a last will and testament, is the primary document utilized to ensure that a person’s final wishes are carried out so that your assets are disbursed pursuant to your specific instructions upon your death. During our consultation, be prepared to discuss who you would like to name as the executor (person in charge of overseeing your estate), your beneficiaries/heirs (the people who will inherit from you), the person who would be the guardian of any minor children and any other specifics that are unique to your situation. It is always a good idea to have alternates or backups if the person you would like to name is unable to serve for any reason.

A power of attorney is a document that is utilized while a person is alive but is unable to act on their own behalf. Responsibilities that are given to another person, your “Agent”, typically include the ability to make financial, medical and other important decisions on your behalf. As with wills, it is always helpful to have an alternate in case your first choice is unable to serve. It is important that a power of attorney is prepared when a person is competent. If a person is no longer competent it is too late to prepare a power of attorney. In those cases, we must petition the court to appoint a guardian at substantially greater expense than if the person had a properly prepared power of attorney. Therefore, it is important that everyone obtain a power of attorney while they are mentally able to do so. Remember, whenever your agent acts on your behalf, they must always sign with the designation of “Agent” or “Power of Attorney” after their name. Otherwise, it may be construed that they are signing for themselves and not on behalf of another.

Property deed transfers are a fundamental aspect of real estate transactions, serving as the official record of ownership change. In Pennsylvania, the importance of a deed transfer cannot be overstated—it not only documents the transfer of property rights but also ensures that all legal requirements are met to validate the change in ownership. A deed, in its essence, is a legal instrument that, when executed correctly, provides a new owner with the title to real estate, effectively transferring the rights, titles, and interests in the property from the seller to the buyer.

The world of general practice can be wide, which is why the lawyers at the Blazosek Law Firm pride themselves on being equipped to handle a wide variety of legal issues.
