Tangled titles aren’t just a policy issue — they’re personal for me. I’ve seen firsthand how these challenges can prevent families from staying in their homes and passing wealth to the next generation.

That’s why I’m committed to working with my colleagues in @PHLCouncil and @phlrow to help protect what families have worked so hard to build.

You may have heard Executor and Administrator used when talking about Wills, but did you know the difference between each role? An Executor is nominated within the Will of a deceased person. An Administrator is appointed by a Court to manage or administer a decedent's estate.
