Program Overview

This presentation will focus on estate and related financial planning for individuals whose wealth is $5 million or less. It will discuss opportunities for effectively "freezing" the wealth below the current $5 million estate tax exemption. It will explore what property is best transferred for estate tax and asset protection purposes and how some individuals can benefit from property transferred without causing the asset to be included in the transferor's gross estate. Comments about Elder law planning also will be made

Attendees will learn:

  • Selected estate and financial planning opportunities for persons with wealth less than $5 million
  • The current estate tax exemption and conflicts that can arise in such planning
  • Tax and non-tax issues that can arise
  • Specific planning suggestions that include life insurance and non-life insurance "solutions."
