Estate Planning - Estate planning gives you the opportunity to pass your wealth on as you see fit. Your estate includes everything from your car and home to life insurance and bank accounts, and estates and inheritances unfortunately also mean taxes. Specialty Tax Advisors help you to pass on your estate with as little taxation as possible by avoiding tax traps and properly managing life insurance and other assets.
Irrevocable Trusts - Through irrevocable trusts, assets are transferred into the trust for later ownership by the beneficiary, and the grantor’s ownership is completely removed from these assets. Irrevocable trusts can include life insurance policies, cash, investments, businesses and more. The main benefits of these types of trusts are elimination of estate tax on assets inside the trust, asset protection, and avoidance of "dis-inheritance".

Within our complicated taxation system, there are many ways to be taxed on sales, income and investments, and at the same time, there are multiple ways to avoid or minimize taxation. Smart management of your liquid assets (stocks, bonds and accounts), life insurance and fixed assets is necessary to maximize your wealth.
