We are pleased to announce that our experienced attorney, Tracy Troyer, has been selected by her peers for inclusion in the 26th edition of The Best Lawyers in America. Best Lawyers is nationally recognized by both clients and legal professionals as the most reliable, unbiased source of legal referrals anywhere.
Attorney Tracy Troyer has been recognized in The Best Lawyers in America for her work in "Trusts and Estates."
The area of "trusts and estates" involves preparing Trusts, Wills, Powers of Attorney, and Health Care Directives. It can also include services regarding business structures such as partnerships, limited liability companies (LLCs), and corporations.
Estate planning attorneys can help you plan for the future. The legal documents they prepare allow you to efficiently and effectively transfer your assets to your spouse, your children, your relatives, and your charities. At Troyer & Good, PC, we consider your goals, your family relationships, your charitable inclinations, and your tax liability.
The area of "trusts and estates" also includes trust and estate administration, which occurs after a person dies. Estate or trust administration is the process that enables the payment of final expenses and debts, distribution of assets to the individuals or entities named in the Will or Trust, and closure of the decedent's financial affairs. Our firm provides comprehensive legal services to the Personal Representative, beneficiaries or Trustee throughout the administration.
We assist our clients with probate administration, non-probate administration, and trust administration, offering personal attention each step of the way. Some of these steps include:
File required documents with the Court
Notify creditors
Evaluate and pay estate claims
Identify deceased person's property
Obtain appraisal of property
Properly distribute assets
Close the Estate
At Troyer & Good, PC we understand that losing a loved one is a difficult process. We want to make it as easy as possible for you and as cost-effective as possible. We work closely with the Executor to assist in distributing your loved one's assets the way they wanted in their Will/Trust (or to whomever is entitled by law if there is no Will/Trust).
