POST-ELECTION STEPS TO TAKEBy: Randy Gardner, J.D., LL.M., MBA, CPA, CFP® and Leslie Daff, J.D., MBA
A new eBook by WealthCounsel, publishers of EstatePlanning.com.
With the reelection of President Obama and a divided Congress, you may be facing major changes in the amount of wealth you can transfer to your family without tax. Not only should you take steps to avoid the automatic changes coming in 2013 with the expiration of the Bush-era tax cuts, you should also engage in proactive planning to create irrevocable trusts and take advantage of discounting techniques for real estate and business interests before Congress repeals them. Get straightforward, plain-English explanations of what is changing and what you should do to minimize the taxes your family will pay for generations to come. This book shows you how and why you should use irrevocable trusts, such as Spousal Lifetime Access Trusts (SLATs), Family Bank Trusts, Irrevocable Life Insurance Trusts (ILITs), Qualified Personal Residence Trusts (QPRTs), plus others, in conjunction with a basic estate plan. Hot off the press with the most recent tax and estate planning information, this book is a must-read for 2012 and 2013 planning.
