Alice joined Shober & Rock in 2004 as an Estates and Trust paralegal. Alice graduated with a BA from West Chester University and studied law at the Institute for Paralegal Training in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Alice received the Institute’s Paralegal Certificate in Estates and Trusts in 1990. Alice’s grandfather, Karl Donecker, was a prominent attorney in Lehigh Valley, and Alice interned in his office on legal matters as a high school student. This experience with her grandfather was the building block for her later studies in law. She attributes her attention to detail and dedication to old-fashioned quality legal work to his mentoring. Alice has over 15 years of experience in estate and trust administration, asset valuation, fiduciary accounting, and probate documents and related tax returns preparation. Alice is proficient in the Lackner 6 in 1 estate administration system and has trained other paralegals on using this software. Alice also assists elder law attorneys on asset transfers, beneficiary designations, and other technical work related to the elder law practice. Alice and Len Shober worked and met at McTighe, Weiss, & O’Rourke, where Len was an attorney and Alice a paralegal. They were married in 1993. Alice is a member of the Bucks County Paralegal Association.
