Estate Planning Roles and Responsibilities
One of the most important aspects of estate planning is selecting “fiduciaries,” the “who does what” part of your estate plan. Learn about these trusted roles that are subject to the highest level of care the law requires.
Disclaimer Trusts and the Clayton QTIP
An essential aspect of estate planning is that circumstances are subject to change, especially when it comes to applicable tax law. To help plan for the uncertainty, revocable trust plans for married persons can achieve tax advantages.
