What Value is Estate Planning To Me?

Estate planning is your personal map for the future. The basic elements of estate planning can be summed up as Creation, Preservation and Distribution.


What Are the Settlement Costs Upon My Death?

Whether you die with a Will or not, two obligations must be met:


  • ADMINISTRATION COSTS
  • TAXES

The costs will depend on the type of Estate Plan you have prepared during your lifetime. Taxes include Federal Estate Death Taxes and Income Taxes. (California no longer has an Inheritance Tax.) The goal of Estate Planning is to minimize the cost of administration and Death Taxes so that your estate can be transferred intact.
