Important questions before an engagement.
Is a will always necessary?+
The appropriate structure depends on the assets, heirs, family circumstances, and objectives. A legal assessment determines whether a will and other planning documents are advisable.
Can succession planning cover a family business?+
Yes. Ownership, governance, continuity, decision-making authority, and family objectives may be coordinated in the plan.
Does planning eliminate estate taxes?+
No. Tax consequences require fact-specific analysis and coordination with qualified tax professionals.
