Tax Planning

Tax and Advanced Estate Planning

We work diligently with our clients who exceed the taxable estate threshold to ensure that their estate plans are as tax-efficient as possible. We stay apprised of the latest changes in tax law to advise our clients on the best strategies to minimize their tax exposure and maximize their savings. This includes utilizing our expertise in generation-skipping transfer tax and marital deduction planning. Our team has experience drafting a variety of irrevocable trusts, such as spousal lifetime access trusts, qualified personal residence trusts, grantor trusts, non-grantor trusts, charitable lead trusts, charitable remainder trusts, etc. Our practice also includes trust modifications, sales and loans to individuals and trusts, decanting, non-judicial settlements, and tax preparation (Forms 706 Estate Tax Return and 709 Gift Tax Return). We advise on lifetime gifts, business succession planning, and charitable giving to ensure that clients are in the best position from both a personal and tax perspective to transfer and preserve their wealth. See our Charitable Planning page to read more about how we might be able to assist in that space as well.
