Planning For Your Future - Including How to Avoid the Time-Delay and Costs of Probate and How to Lower or Eliminate PA Inheritance Taxes
Everyone can benefit from having an estate plan, and this is especially the case for individuals who are married, who have children, who own a business or who have any measurable assets such as a home, life insurance, retirement accounts and cash in bank accounts and investment accounts..
At D'Onofrio Law Office, P.C., I create estate plans for Pittsburgh-area clients ranging from young couples with few assets to wealthy business owners and professionals. As your attorney I will advise you on the best strategy for your estate plan based on your needs, goals and objectives. Once I know about you and your family — and business, if you have one — I can make certain you have the proper, most current legal documents to fit your individual circumstances. I will assist you with avoiding the costs of Probate including filing fees and attorney fees as well as assist you with lowering or avoiding PA Inheritance Taxes.
I provide a wide range of estate planning services, including:
General Durable Power of Attorney
Last Wills and Testaments
Advanced Health Care Directives - Living Wills
Guardianships
Testamentary Trusts
Living Trusts
Irrevocable Trusts
Special needs trusts
Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts
Charitable Trusts
Dynasty Trust (asset protection trusts)

Trust Settlement
Preparation of PA Inheritance Tax Return
Assistance With Keeping Your Will And Other Documents Up-To-Date
It's a good idea to review your estate plan every two to three years to see if your estate plan still makes sense, given changing circumstances. Have you married or divorced? Have you re-married and your new spouse has children of his or her own? Has your income or business grown substantially? Have you had children? These are common life changes that may signal a need to change terms in your current will or trust.
