Estate planning isn’t just for the wealthy—it’s how New Jersey families protect loved ones, reduce stress, and ensure their wishes are honored, no matter what the future holds.

With decades of experience, we make sure your legacy is secure and your family is protected.
What Does Estate Planning Include?
Wills
Direct who receives your property, name guardians for minor children, and outline final wishes.
Trusts
Protect assets, provide for special needs, or avoid probate. Trusts can be customized for many goals—including asset protection trusts, pet trusts, and charitable trusts.
Powers of Attorney
Designate someone you trust to manage finances and legal matters if you can’t.
Probate & Estate Administration
Help executors and families navigate probate, manage legal requirements, and settle estates efficiently while minimizing stress and delays.
Advance Healthcare Directives
Appoint a healthcare proxy and set medical care wishes in advance.
Our Personalized Approach – The PREPP® Difference
Estate planning isn’t one-size-fits-all. Our Principled Results Estate Planning Program (PREPP®) helps clients identify what truly matters—family, values, charitable giving, or protecting vulnerable loved ones—and then creates a plan that reflects those priorities. Every document is drafted to ensure your intentions are carried out clearly, minimizing risk and conflict.
When Should You Update Your Estate Plan?
Life changes—and so should your plan. We recommend reviewing your documents if you:
- Experience a marriage, divorce, or new child/grandchild
- Receive an inheritance or change in assets
- Move to or from New Jersey
- Have a change in health, goals, or beneficiaries
- Haven’t reviewed your plan in more than 3–5 years
A current plan is the best way to protect your legacy and avoid surprises.
