Estate Planning: Protect Your Estate from Taxes
You have worked your entire life to build your estate. By taking a few simple steps today, you can make sure that your assets are properly passed to your heirs. By protecting your estate from taxes, when possible, you can maximize the benefit to the people and causes you care about most. If you have any questions about you or a loved one’s New York estate, you should contact a New York Certified Elder Law Attorney before it is too late.
Avoiding Taxes to Preserve Your Estate
Without proper estate planning, taxes could potentially reduce the size of your estate. We may be able to help clients protect their estates from state and federal estate tax, gift tax, capital gains tax and more. We do this using a number of asset protection strategies, many involve revocable and irrevocable trusts such as:
Credit shelter trusts/bypass trusts/disclaimer trusts
- Life insurance trusts
- Qualified personal residence trusts
- Gifting program.
Makofsky Valente Law Group, P.C. has more than 20 years of experience helping clients prepare for the future. We will spend time with you to learn about your unique circumstances and craft an estate planning strategy that effectively meets your goals.
