About Tammy Avery
Tammy Avery Weber is a Pennsylvania lawyer who has been a fixture in the state's estate planning community for more than two decades. She holds an active membership in the Pennsylvania State Bar and serves as vice president of the NorthCentral Pennsylvania Estate Planners Council, a position she has held since 2005. The longevity of that role has made her a steady presence at the council’s meetings and events.
After law school she began working in private practice in Pennsylvania. Early in her career she took on matters that touched on wills and trusts, and those areas have remained central to her work. She developed practical routines for preparing documents and guiding clients through the often-confusing paperwork that follows a family death or a change in capacity.
Her career has mixed client counseling with local professional involvement. The Pennsylvania State Bar membership kept her connected to developments in state law and practice. Her long service as vice president of the regional estate planners council put her in regular contact with other lawyers, accountants, and financial advisers. That participation has informed the way she approaches planning questions and probate matters.
In practice she handles estate planning tasks, including drafting wills and setting up trusts. She also assists families during probate and estate administration. Clients typically turn to her for clear, straightforward guidance rather than legal theory. She favors plain explanations about the effects of documents and the sequence of steps that follow a death or incapacity.
Colleagues describe her as steady and practical. She tends to focus on tasks that produce quick clarity: document preparation, beneficiary designations, and the procedural steps required in local probate courts. That approach can be useful for families who need concrete directions and want to avoid protracted legal wrangling.
Outside client work she has continued to engage in professional education and local bar activities. Her long tenure in the regional estate planners council has included organizing discussions on state-level statutory changes and local practice issues. She remains active in the Pennsylvania State Bar, maintaining her membership and participating in its programs.
She practices law in Pennsylvania, maintains an active bar membership, and continues to serve as vice president of the NorthCentral Pennsylvania Estate Planners Council. Her current practice focuses on estate planning, wills, trusts, and probate administration.
