“I became a lawyer to help people. Estate planning and administration give me the opportunity to do that every day—helping clients through difficult moments and giving them peace of mind for the future.”
Sam helps families in Pennsylvania plan for the future and navigate the legal challenges that follow the loss of a loved one. As an associate in Obermayer’s Trusts & Estates Group, Sam focuses his practice on estate planning, estate and trust administration, and asset protection. Sam serves clients across the region with a compassionate, steady hand—treating each client as if they were part of his own extended family.
In his estate planning work, Sam crafts personalized wills, trusts, powers of attorney, and health care directives to ensure his clients’ wishes are honored while minimizing tax burdens. In estate and trust administration, he handles the probate process efficiently from start to finish —gathering assets, guiding fiduciaries, and ensuring the smooth distribution of inheritances.
While in law school, Sam received the Constance W. Maier Scholarship, awarded annually to a student who excels in the field of trusts and estates.
Outside the office, Sam enjoys coaching his kids’ sports teams, cheering on all things Philly sports, and leading a nonprofit foundation he co-founded in honor of his late brother.
