Our clients often ask us this, and we have a question we like to ask back: does the will you have in place reflect your current needs? A will evolves and changes over your lifetime. You wrote your existing will to address your then-current situation. Has it changed? A few more questions an attorney from our will law firm in Philadelphia may have you ask yourself include:
All of these are reasons that you may need to start a new will. Changes in relationships, finance, and heirs all require a will review. A will lawyer Allentown, PA residents trust can help you as you draft a new will, if needed.
When it comes to creating a new will, there are a few situations where it will benefit you more to create a new will rather than keeping your current will.
You Have a Baby. Especially when you have minor children in your family, it is time to start considering naming guardians for your children. Picking a trustworthy Guardian ensures that you and your spouse know and trust the person or people who will take care of your children if you were both to pass away at the same time.
You Change Your Mind. Simply stated, many people change their minds when it comes to who they want to inherit different property or what portion of property someone should get. If you are having second thoughts and would like to make a change, it is best to start from scratch with help from an attorney at our will law firm in PA.
When you have questions about starting your will from scratch after already having one, come to the knowledgeable and trusted attorneys from Klenk Law, your local Philadelphia will law firm, to see how we can help.

Affable...yet surprisingly cerebral estate planning atty. High marks all the way around.
Peter and his staff handled all of our needs in a very professional and timely matter.
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.
Peter has done our family's trust and estate work since our children were born. He is not only extremely knowledgeable and honest but makes sure that our arrangements remain current with the changing legal landscape. I would give him my highest recommendation as a professional in his field.
I'm totally satisfied with Klenk Law. Peter has a great legal mind with the personality of the guy next door.
