Pittsburgh Estate Planning Lawyer

Experienced Pennsylvania Estate Planning Attorney

Every adult needs estate planning documents. Should you become incapacitated, even for a short time, who will have the legal authority to manage your financial affairs? Should you die without a will, you lose the precious privilege of the voluntary disposition of your property, the naming of a guardian for any minors, and the naming of an executor whom you know and trust to carry out your wishes. Estate planning documents, when drafted with the help of an experienced attorney, can accomplish these important objectives.

At my suburban Pittsburgh law office – The Law Offices of Mary Margaret Boyd – I help families plan for a secure future through individually tailored estate planning documents. I work with my clients directly, helping them to think through their priorities and develop documents that fit their goals for their assets, medical care, and their families.

Estate Planning Documents Custom-Tailored to Your Family

For over 29 years , I have provided trusted legal counsel and document preparation services to Pittsburgh, Allegheny County, and Washington County families. I have the knowledge to help my clients create a range of estate planning documents, including:

• Wills
• Durable powers of attorney
• Durable health care powers of attorney
• Health care directives

In planning your estate, it is important to remember that probate, otherwise known as estate administration, is relatively inexpensive in Pennsylvania compared to other states. Estate planning documents that would be desirable in other states – such as the creation of trusts – may not be necessary in this state. I can tell you what documents will be necessary for creating a successful plan for your future.
