Helping to Minimize Tax Consequences Through Planning
When an individual passes on, the estate will be collected, administered and evaluated for the possibility that estate taxes will need to be paid. If the individual had accumulated moderate to significant assets, it is highly likely that significant taxes will be required. Our New Jersey estate planning law firm works with our clients to formulate a comprehensive and individualized estate plan that protects your assets and minimizes tax consequences. We assist clients with the following:
Last will and testament drafting
Powers of attorney
Living wills (also called advance directives)
Inheritance tax planning
Other estate planning
Protecting Your Privacy With a Trust
In addition to providing tax benefits, trusts can also preserve a family's privacy. Trusts do not have to go through probate, which is a public administrative process that is public record. Rather, they are administered separately by the individuals named in the trust. Our law firm creates trusts, which can take many forms, depending on the needs of the client. We have drafted trust instruments that include these:
Credit shelter trusts
Marital trusts
Life insurance trusts
Charitable trusts
Spendthrift trusts
Other living trusts
Trusts such as these and others protect our clients' privacy and prevent public scrutiny of one's wealth. Even for clients of moderate means, trust instruments are a valuable estate planning tool.
