Estate Planning and Trust & Estate Administration
Our trust and estate practice encompasses all areas of estate planning and
trust and estate administration.
We advise individuals and families how to transfer property to family
members and charitable organizations, including private foundations, by gift
and testamentary transfer, using creative, tax-advantaged strategies to achieve
their goals.
Many of our clients have substantial business or investment interests.
We help them to develop sound succession plans to pass such interests on to
future generations.
We represent individuals, banks and trust companies as executors and
trustees in all phases of the administration of large and complex estates and
trusts, including probate, tax matters and accounting proceedings. We advise
charitable institutions, including family foundations, with respect to contributions
and organizational matters.
Our attorneys lecture extensively on estate planning, wealth preservation
and trust and estate administration.
Some of the specific areas in which we render advice are:
planning for gift, estate and generation-skipping transfer tax and fiduciary
income tax matters
preparing wills and trusts and related documents
forming family foundations and partnerships
business succession planning
IRA and pension distribution planning
asset protection planning
disputes involving estates and trusts
