Executors, trustees and other fiduciaries can trust our firm to shepherd them through complicated scenarios in a way that ensures heirs are properly taken care of and legal obligations are satisfied. Often, the relationships we develop during estate planning allow our team to provide personal and compassionate counsel through the estate administration process.

We provide a caring and comprehensive approach to administering an estate after the loss of a loved one. Often the personal relationship we establish with the family during estate planning provides for a comfortable transition during this vulnerable time.

Duke Law Offices is expert in the complex legal requirements of estate administration, including Pennsylvania estate, probate, trust and property law, as well as Federal and state tax laws. We offer our experience in probate, trusts, asset distributions, and taxation to executors and trustees to insure that they properly fulfill their fiduciary obligations.
