Why Is Estate Planning and Writing a Will Important?

The preparation and execution of a Last Will and Testament serves to designate who gets what and organizes the management of your estate. The will permits the decedent to speak after death and is enforceable by the court. A will assures its drafter with peace of mind.

The laws of testate succession (succession under the guidance of a written Last Will and Testament) oversee the execution and construction of Pennsylvania wills. These laws are found in the Pennsylvania Decedent’s Estate and Fiduciaries Code at 20 Pa. C.S.A § 2501 et. seq. Any individual over eighteen can competently make a Will and dictate management and distribution of the estate to any person or corporation. A lawyer-drafted Will enjoys a strong presumption of validity.
