Estate administration in Bucks County or Mercer County, NJ is a lengthy and complicated process that starts when an original Will is presented to the Bucks County Register of Wills or the Mercer County, NJ Surrogate.  If the Decedent did not leave a Will then a person must qualify as an administrator to have the legal authority to gather and distribute the estate assets according to PA or NJ estate law.

The administration of a PA or NJ estate includes:  probate, estate notices, estate advertising in PA, gathering estate assets, evaluating and paying valid estate debts, determining an executor’s or an administrator’s commission or fee, preparing an estate inventory in PA, preparing an estate accounting, filing estate tax returns and paying estate taxes, and properly closing the Bucks County, PA or Mercer County, NJ estate.
