Estate Planning, Wills and Probate

The estate planning attorneys at The McCarthy Law Office in Princeton, New Jersey empower individuals and their closely held businesses to be able to plan for every step of the future, not just the final chapter.

Princeton's oldest law firm has served generations of clients in Princeton, across New Jersey and the Northeast to chart their financial futures by avoiding hidden shoals that could appear along the way. We know federal and state tax laws, along with the intricacies of appointing custodians, executors and trustees.
