Appeals Work
Our Estate Litigation Attorneys have experience appealing lower court decisions. Orphans’ Court Appeals in Pennsylvania and Surrogate Court Appeals in New Jersey both have short time limits, and an appeal requires securing court records. If you are considering making an appeal in an estate matter please promptly contact us.
Appeals Experience Saves You Money.
Few lawyers have experience appealing Orphans’ Court decisions or New Jersey Surrogate Court rulings. An appellate practice differs from a trial court practice. The process is exact, and your appeal must follow proper procedures. The appeal must anticipate your opponent’s position and provide compelling counter-arguments. An experienced Estate Litigation Appeal Lawyer can assess the situation and help avoid pitfalls. In the end, the experience will save you money.

What Our clients are saying
Anne W.
I saw four lawyers and was told by all of them; I should just forget contesting my mother's will. I knew what happened, but it is very hard to prove undue influence. I contacted the Law Offices of Peter L. Klenk & Associates. Attorney Amanda DiChello took my case. They were very honest and upfront about what would be involved trying to prove what I knew was true. Attorney DiChello may be young but she is extremely knowledgeable and skilled. She listened and understood what I conveyed to her. She knew exactly what information to use and crafted an outstanding interrogatory and many powerful depositions. Attorney DiChello understood the various emotional feelings this case created for my family and me; she was always there for us with a kind and encouraging word. We went to trial. The amount of work which she and her Paralegal did for the trial was incredible. They both knew my case inside and out! Attorney DiChello's powerful interrogative and thinking skills produced a positive outcome. Attorney DiChello did what other seasoned lawyers said was impossible!

When it came down to picking the right attorney to handle my affairs, I knew right away it was this firm. From speaking to their secretary to speaking to Peter I knew I was making the right decision. After only a few mins Peter knew right away what I was looking for and handled all my questions professionally and even gave me great feedback that put my mind at ease. All that without even giving a single penny! So of course I hired him! So far so good...

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 have lived in various cities throughout the nation, I have never had a problem in contacting Peter or a member of his team. He and his office responds quickly and returns calls to me to fulfill my requests for information or to revise my estate needs while posing relevant thought-provoking questions that I need to consider to secure my future. One of Peter's best qualities is his ability to answer clients complicated questions in a simple way to ensure comprehension.
