Estate planning & wealth transfer considerations
Delaying distribution: Some individuals choose to delay the distribution of wealth to heirs to encourage financial stability and responsibility.
Remarriage considerations: Marriage and remarriage are exciting parts of life. Addressing the complexities of remarriage, including protecting assets and fair distribution, is an important part of the process.
Business ownership: Part of wealth transfer is planning for the next phase of your business, whether transitioning to the next generation or selling to new owners.
Charitable giving: Many charitably inclined families incorporate philanthropic gifts into their estate plans. Not only does this strategy benefit causes you care about, but it could also reduce your tax liability.
Special needs planning: Families with minor children or loved ones with special needs often prioritize financially providing for dependents without jeopardizing their eligibility for other essential benefits.
Tax planning: It’s no surprise that tax must be part of your estate planning journey. Managing an estate above the federal gift and estate tax applicable exclusion amount or your state’s death exclusion can create additional complexity.
