Historic Prison Museum tells the story of an

intriguing and education-filled National

Historic Landmark. Combine this with a variety of

miss an opportunity to enjoy yourself.

BURLINGTON COUNTY

SURROGATE’S COURT

(609) 265-5005

The many duties of the Surrogate’s Court include the probating of wills, appointing of estate administrators, supervising the appointment of guardians and administering adoptions. My responsibility as Surrogate is to oversee the administration of the many services offered by this Surrogate's Court. My team and I will work to make the emotionally difficult experience that can be associated with the Surrogate’s Court a professional and sensitive experience.

A Will is a legally enforceable written document that takes effect upon death, and directs the distribution of a person’s personal property and real estate. The advantage of having a Will saves your heirs time and money during this emotional time. You may plan now for the orderly transfer of your property, both real and personal to assure that your plans will be carried out as you desire.

Guardianship of Incapacitated Individuals: You want to assist and protect your loved one in navigating the world around them, ensuring that they handle activities of daily living while exercising independence as safely as possible. We process the Guardianship of Incapacitated matters for the Superior Court, Chancery Division, Probate Part for both the person and the person and their property both personal and real estate.

Appoint Guardianship of Minors: There are several reasons that an appointment of a guardian of a minor is necessary. The most common is guardianship of the property when a minor is to receive assets, usually money, but also includes real estate, stocks and bonds, in amounts greater than $5,000 per annum. We also appoint guardianship of the person of the minor.

Adoptions: The Burlington County Surrogate’s Court serves as the Deputy Clerk of Superior Court, Chancery Division, Family Part for all adoptions. Our office processes the Complaints and support-ing documents and schedules the hearings before the Superior Court. The Surrogate’s Court also maintains the files under seal as required.

The Surrogate also acts as Deputy Clerk of the Superior Court, Chancery Division - Probate Part. In that capacity the Surrogate is responsible for estate accountings, insolvencies, actions to remove fiduciaries and similar actions brought in the probate part.

I am available for speaking engagements upon request. If interested, please contact my office.
