​Succession Planning and Trust

Did you know, that 60% of Americans don’t have any estate plan before they actually need one? Without estate planning, the court will take over the administration of a person’s estate after their death. This is known as probate, which entails a waiting period, hefty estate taxes, probate fee, and the procedure is generally out of your control.
 
An Estate Plan is a collection of protective legally written documents which can help you to achieve the following purposes:
 

• Protect and define your personal and marital assets
• Legally plan away inheritance tax and gift tax
• Legally plan away probate procedure
• Appoint your successor and beneficiaries
• To provide funds for medical and education expenses for your young children
• Appoint a substitute guardian for your young children
• Provide asset protection for your children’s marital risk
• Provide start-up funds for entrepreneurial children

 
Estate planning is particularly important for the “mixed family” that is growing rapidly in the United States — spouses with different nationalities; own real estate in different states or overseas; have one or more U.S or foreign based beneficiaries (children). The law will be even more complicated for mix-family due to their background.
 
They say, the best time to plant a tree might be 10 years ago, but NOW is the second-best option. Developing an efficient and practical estate plan requires careful consideration, but it is not as difficult and tedious as you think to start. Our firm is committed to simplify and personalize the estate planning process, providing our clients with a more convenient, efficient and streamlined service experience. Your estate plan should be defined by who you are and what you want for your successors and to protect them from future risks.
