Does your Firm Provide Estate Planning for the Camden County LGBT Community?

Certainly! Though same-sex marriage is accepted law, there are still concerns unique to the LGBT community. Historical prejudice and existing hostility both political and familial adds a layer of complication other couples need not address. Please read my article about LGBT Estate Planning.

What Happens to Someone's Estate if They Die Without a Will in New Jersey?

If you die without a Will, you are “Intestate.” If you have no Estate Plan, then your assets pass under New Jersey’s plan. A Will allows you to craft a plan that reflects your real wishes. The Intestacy Rules do not take your wishes into consideration. For more, read our article that addresses New Jersey Intestacy.

How Much Should a Camden County Probate Attorney Charge?

A Camden County Probate Attorney can charge what the court determines a “reasonable fee,” read our article on Probate Attorney Fees.

How Much Can a Camden County Executor Charge?

Unlike neighboring Pennsylvania, the answer can be simple. The New Jersey legislature has enacted a series of statutes detailing an acceptable Camden County executor fee for an average estate when the testator has not specified otherwise. Keep in mind that, for drawn out, or complex estates, an executor may be entitled to greater compensation.” For more information read our article on Executors Fees.

How Much Can a Camden County Trustee Charge as a Fee?

The Trust document often states the Trustee’s fee, which is often “reasonable.” If however, the grantor has failed to specify the compensation, the New Jersey legislature has provided for a statutory fee schedule. However, this does not apply to corporate fiduciaries. For more information, read our article on Camden County Trustee Fees.

What is the Maximum Atlantic County Power of Attorney Fee?

In New Jersey, if the principal has not specifically stated the compensation, the agent is not entitled to a fee without the appropriate Court’s approval. For more details, read our article on Agent Fees or Power of Attorney Fees.

How Much Can a Camden County Guardian Charge For His Services?

New Jersey has adopted the same fee schedule for guardians and trustees. The bifurcated approach that allows a guardian to take a percentage based fee on any income received during the year, and another percentage based on the principal. For more details, read our article about Guardianship Fees.
