I sincerely enjoy and appreciate the opportunity to interact with clients. Understanding that end of life issues raise so many emotions in clients – grief, concern, stress, confusion – I strive to bring an empathetic as well as a sympathetic approach to my clients’ needs.

โ€‹

My principal area of practice involves aiding our clients with the administration of an Estate and the preparation of the Pennsylvania Inheritance Transfer Tax return. As such, I am involved in daily communications with clients, financial institutions, accountants, financial planners, as well as the Pennsylvania Department of Revenue.

โ€‹

Following the death of a loved one, your primary concern should be emotional healing.  Let us assist you with the legal, financial and administrative issues that occur when there is the death of a loved one.
