Income Tax, Estate Tax and Financial Planning for Clients With Net Worth of Less Than $5 Million: Panel Discussion

Date
November 18, 2013

The estate planning profession has changed dramatically now that Congress has raised the estate, gift and GST exemption to $5 million (indexed for inflation). This session will discuss the planning options available for those whose estates do not exceed the available estate, gift and GST exemption. Topics to be discussed include:
• Is a will enough?
• Portability
• The importance of a step-up in basis and income tax planning vs. estate tax planning
• Does a client need a trust?
• The continued importance of state death tax planning
