Understanding How Estate Taxes Affect You
Estate taxes can be a significant consideration in managing your legacy. These taxes are levied on the transfer of assets at death, affecting the value of what you leave to your loved ones. Our Cleveland estate planning attorneys possess a wealth of knowledge in estate tax preparation and avoidance. They work to minimize your tax burden while ensuring your wishes are honored. Let us help you secure your estate for many future generations.
Proactive Guidance Regarding Gift Tax
Gift taxes apply to the transfer of assets during your lifetime. As of 2024, you can gift up to $18,000 to another individual without having to pay the gift tax. Understanding how taxes may impact financial gifts is crucial to effective estate planning. Our tax lawyers can guide you through the process of gifting assets to your loved ones while optimizing your tax advantages. We’re here to help you make informed decisions that benefit both you and your beneficiaries.
Addressing Generation-Skipping Transfer Taxes
The generation-skipping transfer (GST) tax is a tax on transfers to recipients who are two or more generations below the donor. Planning for GST taxes is essential to protect your assets from undue taxation as they pass down to future generations. Fortunately, our estate planning attorneys and tax attorneys are well-versed in strategies to help you navigate these complex regulations.
