Meet Walt Zaremba

The firm’s mission is to ensure that clients are provided with an estate plan that “works.” In other words, Zaremba Center is committed to creating an estate plan tailored to the individual client to enable you, not the court system or governmental bureaucracies, to stay in control of your health and wealth, regardless of your current and future circumstances.
In 1995, Walt was elected to serve his community as a member of the York County Board of Supervisors, serving the citizens of the first district. He is now in his fifth four-year term.

You've Come To The Right Place
To create an effective estate plan, it is essential to make a comprehensive list of all your assets. This includes properties, investments, bank accounts, retirement accounts, business interests, and valuable personal belongings. Taking inventory of your assets will help you understand the wealth you have accumulated and enable you to make informed decisions about how you want them handled.
Furthermore, it is equally vital to clearly identify and name the beneficiaries for each asset. A beneficiary can be a family member, friend, or charitable organization that you wish to benefit from your assets. By nominating beneficiaries for your assets, you ensure that the distribution of your estate aligns with your wishes while minimizing potential conflicts among your loved ones.
