My name is Ronald J. Cappuccio, and I have served the Cherry Hill community from Ronald J. Cappuccio J.D., LL.M. (Tax), since 1976.

Whether you are considering a simple will or a living will or need to update your current documents, my Cherry Hill office is open to offer help.
Types Of Wills You Should Know
There are several types of wills that you might consider, depending on your needs and goals:
- Simple will: A basic will that lists how you want your assets distributed.
- Living will: A document that explains your medical care preferences if you are unable to speak for yourself.
- Joint will: Often used by spouses to outline mutual wishes.
- Testamentary trust will: Includes instructions for creating a trust upon your passing.
Each type has its purpose. I will help you choose the one that makes the most sense for your life and plans.
Things To Consider Before You Draft A Will
Before we draft a will, here are a few things to think about:
- Who will be your beneficiaries?
- Who do you trust to carry out your wishes as executor?
- Do you have children or dependents who need guardianship instructions?
- Do you own property, investments or personal items you want to pass down?
- Are there medical decisions you want to document in a living will?
Making these decisions ahead of time can make the process smoother and more effective. Additionally, life changes, and so should your will. Whether you have moved to Cherry Hill, married, had children or experienced loss, updating your will keeps your intentions clear and legally sound.
