Welcome to the website of the Neagle
Law Firm, PC. This firm's goal is to provide professional, timely,
courteous, and high quality legal services at a fair, reasonable and
competitive price. In a real sense,
estate planning and estate administration are mirror images,
two complementary sides of the laws encompassing the transfer
of assets either before or after death. Generally, estate
planning deals with valuing assets and deciding how one's assets
should be distributed, while estate administration
(sometimes called probate), involves carrying out the
decedent's wishes as specified in legal documents (or, the intestate successions laws).
What a person told another person during life usually has very
little to do with the actual distribution in the face of
joint ownership, will provisions and the intestate succession act. The
key point is that proper estate planning can
facilitate an estate administration in that it can assure
that a decedent's property ends up with the proper recipients
without undue taxation, and as quickly as
possible. Please click on the links below.
