Philadelphia Holographic Wills vs. Self-Proved Wills

Posted on Thu Aug 11, 2011, on Estate Planning

Can you write a valid Will on the back of an envelope in Philadelphia? The answer is yes….. but you are asking for trouble. Philadelphia Will Drafting Attorneys agree, Self-Proved Wills are preferable to Holographic Wills.

A Will is a statement declaring a person’s wishes regarding the disposal of the person’s property when the person dies. It affects titles to land, whom receives bank accounts and stocks and whom will serve in guardianships for minor children. Any discrepancy, error or omission can lead to years of litigation and bad feelings between the surviving family members. A Will is not something to take lightly.

Wendy Charlap

We came to this firm based because of the online reviews we read and were not disappointed. Peter and the staff were a pleasure to work with - Peter was friendly, knowledgeable and patient with all our questions and the office staff were extremely responsive and efficient with all the scheduling and follow up needed to get us ready for the signing. We also like that all documents are housed in a portal that is easily accessible. Thank you to Peter and the team for helping us cross 'update estate planning documents' off our list.

I have worked with three different attorneys and law firms over the years, and I can confidently say that attorney Peter Klenk stands out as the most knowledgeable. He created the most thorough wills and trust documents I've ever had. Mr. Klenk took the time to gather all the necessary details about my current situation and goals. As a result, he put together comprehensive documents that I believe will effectively protect my assets and ensure my children's inheritance is secure.
What truly sets Mr. Klenk apart is his patience and dedication to understanding my questions. He provided detailed explanations that made complex legal concepts much easier to grasp. His team's communication and scheduling were equally impressive, making the entire process smooth and stress-free.
Thank you, Mr. Klenk, and your fantastic team, for your exceptional service!
