Why not a website or a big firm?
Versus a do-it-yourself will
A form can’t ask follow-up questions about your family, your home or property in another state. Signing mistakes can also make a will invalid. We draft for your situation and supervise the signing.
Versus a big-city firm
You talk to the attorney, not a call center. Your matter stays with people who live and work here, and your fee is clear up front.
Versus waiting
Planning early usually means more options and less stress for your family. For wills and trusts, the first conversation is free.
Memberships, admissions and partners
Before you call.
Is the first consultation free?
For wills, trusts and estate planning, yes. For other matters, we’ll tell you up front if there’s any fee before we meet.
Can we meet by phone or video?
Yes. Meet at 17 Orange Street, by phone or by video, whichever is easier for you.
Do you handle Pennsylvania matters?
Bill and Jenn are admitted in Pennsylvania. For most Pennsylvania-specific work, we coordinate with Jacobs, Wilson & Onofry in Milford, PA.
