At Van Horn Law, we understand that few decisions are more important than ensuring your children's future is protected—no matter what life brings.

For families in Allentown and the greater Lehigh Valley, establishing legal guardianship is a critical part of responsible estate planning.

In this post, we break down everything parents need to know about guardianship in Pennsylvania—and how Van Horn Law helps you create a plan that brings peace of mind.

💼 Why Appointing a Guardian in Your Will Matters

If something unexpected were to happen to you, who would care for your children? Appointing a guardian in your will allows you—not the courts—to decide. At Van Horn Law, we emphasize how this decision protects your children from uncertainty and ensures your wishes are honored.

We help you understand both the legal requirements under Pennsylvania law and the emotional factors to consider when choosing a trusted guardian.
