What is Probate?

Probate is the legal process that takes place after someone passes away. We aim to fulfill the deceased’s wishes while minimizing the stress on their loved ones. We know that probate can be lengthy and expensive, and we’re here to guide you through it with empathy and understanding.

What Does an Executor Do?

The executor is the person responsible for managing the deceased person’s estate. We understand that this can be an overwhelming responsibility during an already challenging time. That’s why we’re here to support you every step of the way. We’ll help you fulfill your fiduciary duty to act in the best interests of the beneficiaries with care and sensitivity.

Keep Your Loved Ones Protected

Life is full of uncertainties, but change is one thing that remains certain. Everything changes at some point, whether it’s businesses, relationships, or finances. At our estate planning firm, we understand this and stay in touch with our clients to ensure their estate plans reflect positive and negative changes. We believe in this so strongly that we offer a complimentary one or three-year checkup appointment to ensure your plan stays up-to-date. Also, we would be able to help you update your existing estate plan. It is essential to reflect on the past year and ensure unexpected events do not disrupt your plans.

What Are Your Neighbors Saying?

We pride ourselves on being active members of the Southeastern Pennsylvania community. So if you are looking for a local law firm to take care of your family’s needs, look no further. We’ve been working with your neighbors (some you may even know), and they've had great things to say.

My husband and I needed to create our wills and had no idea where to start. Antanavage Farbiarz PLLC walked us through the whole process. Everyone at the firm was very patient and kind. We can now rest easy knowing that our final arrangements are complete, thanks to Antanavage Fabiarz PLLC.

We were very happy with the work that Attorney Farbiarz did for us. He and his staff were fully functional through Covid – 19 and did almost all of our work electronically and virtually. We would use Antanavage Farbiarz again and would recommend them to others.
