Serving as Executor, Personal Representative or Administrator of a New Jersey estate is a time-consuming and difficult task. A person taking on this responsibility and commitment deserves to be compensated.

Our team has compiled a Guide to New Jersey Executor or Personal Representative of Estate Fees for New Jersey residents, designed to help you avoid mistakes that can put you at odds with creditors or heirs.

Our Guide to New Jersey Agent and Power of Attorney Fees reviews what appropriate agent compensation looks like.

I had a very good experience with Klenk Law Estate Planning group. The process was efficient, with excellent communication throughout at a reasonable cost. I highly recommend Peter Klenk and his team for your Estate Planning needs.
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!
