Inheritance and Gift Tax
What is Meant by Inheritance and Gifts?
The transfer of wealth. If assets are transferred during a person’s lifetime, this constitutes a gift. Assets bequeathed after death are considered inheritance. If you need help with an inheritance or want to plan the transfer of your assets, we can be a partner at your side.
Planning a Transfer of Assets
The passing of wealth to the next generation should be planned out long before death. By planning early and systematically, it is possible to avoid inheritance and gift taxes almost entirely.
This allows the benefactor to transfer their estate in accordance with their own wishes. And that is the best way to avoid conflict among the future beneficiaries.
