ABOUT OUR PRACTICE

Wills Attorneys


If you are preparing a will or need assistance with the probate of a will in the Poconos, MHK Attorneys is here to guide you through the process. A properly drafted will ensure that your estate is distributed according to your wishes, and we are here to make sure that your plans are legally sound and enforceable. We also offer house call services for your convenience.

Understanding Wills

A will is a legal document that outlines how your assets should be distributed after your death. It may also appoint guardians for minor children and name an executor to carry out your wishes. Without a will, your estate will be subject to Pennsylvania’s laws of intestate succession. MHK Attorneys will help you create a will that meets your needs and complies with state laws.

Legal Requirements for Wills

Under Pennsylvania law, a will must meet certain requirements to be legally valid, including being in writing, signed by the testator, and witnessed by two individuals. MHK Attorneys will assist you in drafting a will, ensuring it is legally sound, and defending it if there are any challenges after your death.
