Legal Question in Wills and Trusts in Tennessee

Writing a will

I am now living in Tennessee but came here from Pennsylvania . My attorney is back in Pennsylvania and I still use him . Is there any difference in the local laws that he and I should be aware of regarding his preparing a will for me now that I am living in Tennessee ?

Re: Writing a will

Pennsylvania and Tennessee are both common

law states (as opposed to civil law in some

states, most notably Louisiana) so there would

probably not be any difference in the preparation

of a Will by a Pennsylvania lawyer versus the preparation of a Will by a Tennessee lawyer. But if you are living now in Tennessee, it would be my suggestion to use a Tennessee lawyer to prepare your Will.
