ADVANCED Estate Planning for High Net Worth Families: Tax Tips


High-Net-Worth” families often get creamed by the IRS and state governments without ever realizing it, simply because they don’t perceive the need to look ahead and protect themselves. This is especially true this year because of the tax increases proposed by Biden—huge tax increases are coming, probably as soon as January 1, 2022.

Do you need to think about a very specific approach to your relationship with tax authorities? If you control over $5 million in assets, you probably do!
