Preparing estate plans to meet the long-term needs and concerns of clients and their families
The estate planning attorneys at the HKQ work closely with clients to understand their concerns and make sure they have the appropriate estate planning documents in place. For an evaluation of your estate planning needs including a will, trust, powers of attorney, health care directives, and other documents, contact an estate and tax planning lawyer at Hourigan, Kluger & Quinn.

Minimize or eliminate estate taxes
Our estate lawyers can develop estate plans that help you and your heirs avoid or minimize federal estate tax and Pennsylvania inheritance tax.

Consider gifts
As part of an estate plan, you may wish to consider gifts during your lifetime. Estate planning attorneys at HKQ can help you understand the tax implications of gifts during your lifetime using family limited partnerships, limited liability companies, grantor-retained annuity trusts, sale to intentionally defective grantor trusts, self-canceling instrument notes and private life annuities.

Protect assets from creditors and others
Our estate planning lawyers can advise you of ways to protect your assets from people or companies that are not your intended beneficiaries, such as your children’s spouses and business creditors.

Plan for nursing home care
An estate plan should involve a discussion about protecting your assets in the event that nursing home care becomes necessary. Schedule a consultation with an experienced estate planning and elder law attorney at HKQ to discuss how to prepare for this and other possible eventualities.

Will contests and probate disputes
In an ideal world, all wills would be clearly written, interpreted and honored; all trusts would be seamlessly implemented as written; and both beneficiaries’ rights and decedents’ wishes would be understood. Unfortunately, controversies do arise regarding wills and trusts. When that occurs, contact a probate litigation attorney at Hourigan, Kluger & Quinn.
