Learn more about Estate Administration Rules in your area.
Each state has its own set of Estate Administration rules. When the founding fathers formed the United States, they all agreed that they didn’t care much for the British, but they also agreed they didn’t trust each other much either. Therefore, the founding fathers decided to give the federal government some powers but retained other powers to themselves. One of the powers each state retains is the right to decide how property passes at death, including the fees that an Administrator receives.

Like another reviewer, I contacted Peter through his website using the free consultation link, for a question regarding PA inheritance taxes. The question was quite technical and difficult to explain, and the answer was nowhere to be found on the web. Peter grasped precisely what I was asking, and provided a clear, helpful response (with a touch of humor) the very next day.

I contacted Peter through his website using the free consultation link for a question regarding a will. While I was expecting only a few minutes, it was a lengthy conversation. He made sure he understood the situation by asking many questions before offering advice. He then went through my options and results of each one. He left it up to me to decide if I wanted to proceed and did not push me toward one or another. His website has very useful information which I definitely researched before I called him. While I decided not to proceed at this time, I feel I had enough information to make that decision. I would not hesitate to hire him should I need to in the future.
