Peter Klenk is the principal of a boutique law firm concentrating its practice in probate, estate planning, will challenges and estate related litigation. Peter and staff work with clients to craft estate plans that fit the given circumstances. These plans range from wills, powers of attorneys and living wills to detailed trusts and complex plans that reduce or avoid inheritance and estate taxes or create trusts to protect special needs persons. Focusing exclusively on estate planning and probate has given our lawyers the experience and knowledge to represent fiduciaries such as personal representatives, executors, agents and trustees. Beneficiaries and potential heirs of trusts and estates also retain us to represent their interests in estate related disputes such as will challenges or to force executor or trustee accountings. Estate related litigation might include tortuous interference with expectancy, will contests, elective share disputes, undue influence, lack of capacity and trust construction. If you need estate related representation you should hire an attorney who focuses on estates. Estate planning, probate and related litigation, its all we do!

Created a Trust Document for us
Attorney Klenk really knows is stuff. Not only was he easy to work with but he knows the Estate Planning laws inside and out. We needed help creating a Trust Document along with updates to our Wills. He did it all and never hesitated to spend time explaining what was in the documents he created.

Great, quick work
Peter handled a rush will and POA for us just days before I was having major surgery. He and his team were efficient and thorough yet still were able to explain every step of the process in great but understandable detail. Awesome work. Can’t thank him enough.

Update for law change
Peter was proactive when laws changed. Contacted us to be sure we understood the change. After discussion concerning our family dynamics, we both understand our needs going forward and have a plan of action and review in the future. It feels good to communicate with him periodically concerning our family dynamics so he can have background info when he needs to deal with them. Reassuring update! Thanks, Peter!

Great Lawyer for my Needs!
Peter breaks down the essentials you need to know. He can quickly assess your situation, and scopes out the issues easily for you to consider. He keeps it simple and up levels on those details necessary to ensure clarity and understanding. He is very efficient and very financially reasonable. I really appreciate him. He also keeps me updated on changes in law and checks in to see if circumstances have changed. I love that he is on my team of professionals that keep my life planning and finances in shape. So very highly recommend him! (and I also say this as a lawyer myself!)

Excellent Review of Secure Act
Reviewed with us the implications of the 2019 Secure Act, and what impact it had for our current Estate Planning Documents. Explained very clearly what options we had, and which one made most sense in our situation. Much relieved now.
