Protection through Cutting Edge, State of the Art Estate Planning Strategies
Some important goals of any estate plan are to protect assets and minimize tax liability. It is critical to provide the latest estate planning tools to achieve these objectives. We were one of first law firms in western North Carolina to use family limited partnerships (FLPs), limited liability partnerships (LLPs) and revocable living trusts to protect people's estate plan. However, there are many different ways to protect assets and reduce tax liability including:
- Business Succession Planning
- Medicaid Planning for Nursing Home Care
- IRA Planning
- Charitable Planning
- Estate Tax and Gift Tax Planning
- Asset Protection
Representing You in Probate Court
Clients often come to us when a loved one has passed away without leaving behind a will or a trust. For these clients, the confusion over how to handle the deceased’s estate coupled with the raw emotion of their personal loss can make for a confusing and emotionally exhausting time. Our significant experience in the area of probate administration can help put their minds at ease and spare them unnecessary anxiety.
