Report

No one likes to think about dying, but there are important reasons to prepare for this inevitable event by setting up a plan to distribute a person's estate after death. A person's estate consists of all of his or her property and possessions, and can include bank accounts, real estate, furniture, automobiles, stocks, bonds, retirement funds, pensions, and death benefits.

Wills Report

A will specifies how you want your estate to be distributed. A will is critical, because if you do not prepare one (or some other suitable estate plan), then the state will determine who receives your property and who cares for your children. This an extremely important document for you and for your family.

Probate Report

Our attorney guides you through the process of transferring property after a loved one dies, including opening a probate estate if necessary. We take the time to explain the probate process and counsel clients on the complex procedures of probate law. When there are disagreements among beneficiaries, we negotiate to resolve those differences.

Trusts Report

A trust is an agreement that determines how a person's property is to be managed and distributed during his or her lifetime and also upon death. A trust is classified as a "living" trust when it is established during the settlor's lifetime and as a "revocable" trust when the settlor has reserved the right to amend or revoke the trust during his or her lifetime.

Report

Elder law attorneys address issues that affect you as you grow older. When properly applied, various legal tools can provide valuable protection for you and your family. For example, there are instruments that may minimize the erosion of your estate if you become seriously ill and have large medical and assisted living expenses.

Kelly is an excellent attorney! She walked me through the real estate closing process holding my hand the entire way; I was nervous and asked tons of questions which she answered and explained. Kelly is both knowledgeable and compassionate.

Kelly spent a period of years helping my mom and the rest of my family with any and all legal questions. She was incredibly responsive and always kind and patient. When we had questions, she responded with effective advice. It really means a lot to have a lawyer care so much about her clients!

I have used Kelly for both my will and for real estate. In both cases, she was ideal. She looked out for my interests way better than I could. I would go back to Kelly in an instant.

Kelly Karczmar has been our lawyer for many years. She has always been there to answer our questions, and help us with any legalities that come up. I trust her, to always tell me exactly what she thinks. I know she has our best interests at heart. Which is hard to find these days.

I’ve reached out to Kelly 3 times with no return call. EVER. Must be nice to have sooo much business that you can just negate phone calls.
Took my business elsewhere.

We all know the importance of having a will and yet the task can seem daunting. My husband and I turned to Kelly to help us. She was very professional and seamlessly guided us through the process. I would highly recommend Kelly's services!
