At Silversmith Legal, we take pride in guiding our clients through the estate planning process.

Your home, financial accounts, business interests and many other types of assets are all part of your estate, but who receives these assets when you have passed away is not the only thing you have to plan for in a customized estate plan. At Silversmith Legal we assist clients with all of the issues that can arise when planning one’s estate, including:

  • Planning to avoid probate

  • Tax considerations

  • Asset protection for your loved ones

  • Transferring ownership of businesses and investments

  • Charitable Planning

  • How to leave your assets, not just who to leave your assets to

In addition to the general considerations above, we also assist clients with:

  • Irrevocable trust planning (gift trusts and life insurance trusts)

  • Life Insurance planning and associated tax considerations

  • Complex estate and gift tax returns
