Estate Planning

A comprehensive estate plan ensures that your decisions are honored while you are alive and after you pass. At Mackerer Law Offices, we work closely with our clients to create customized estate plans that include a Will, Financial Power of Attorney, Living Will (or Advance Medical Directive), and, in certain cases, Trusts. Our goal is to provide our clients with peace of mind, knowing that their affairs are in order and their loved ones will be taken care of.

Tax Planning

An estate plan can be created that will minimize the amount of taxes owed to the government both during your life and upon your passing. Mackerer Law Offices can analyze your assets and create a plan that minimizes the tax liability, maximizes the value of your estate, and ensures that your wishes are carried out. We have extensive experience in tax planning and can help you navigate the complexities of estate and tax law to achieve the best outcome for you and your beneficiaries.

Probate, Estate & Trust Administration

Estate Administration, commonly referred to as the probate process, begins with the appointed Executor submitting your loved one's Will to the Surrogate in New Jersey or the Register of Wills in Pennsylvania. If your loved one passed without a Will, the process is referred to as an Administration and the court will appoint an Administrator to handle the estate. At Mackerer Law Offices, we can guide you through the probate process, whether your loved one had a Will or not.

We also provide services in trust administration, which is the process of managing a trust according to the trust agreement. Our team can help you understand your duties and responsibilities as a trustee, and ensure that the trust is administered properly and in accordance with the trust agreement and the law.

Business Formation and Succession Planning

Mackerer Law Offices provides legal services to business owners in the areas of business formation and succession planning. We can help you choose the right entity for your business, prepare formation documents, and create a succession plan that ensures the continuity and success of your business. Whether you are starting a new business, growing an existing one, or planning for the future, we can provide the legal guidance and support you need to achieve your goals.

Non-Profit Organizations

Mackerer Law Offices works with non-profit organizations in forming entities, obtaining or reinstating tax-exempt status, and providing ongoing legal support. We understand the unique challenges and opportunities facing non-profit organizations, and can help you navigate the legal and regulatory landscape to ensure compliance, protect your organization, and achieve your mission.

At Mackerer Law Offices, we are committed to providing exceptional legal services and building long-term relationships with our clients. We understand the importance of preserving and protecting your life's work for future generations, and we have the knowledge, experience, and dedication to help you achieve your goals.
