Estate Planning & Advising
A well-planned and executed estate plan will help you to pass on more of your wealth to your family and charities versus going to the government as tax.
You and the financial advisors at Liberty Financial Strategies will work closely with your tax and estate lawyers to prepare your estate plan.
Estate Planning Is for Everyone
No matter the size of your estate (aka, your “assets”), you need a good plan to protect and appropriately delegate what you have, should you become incapacitated or for after you die.
How We Approach Estate Planning
When we plan your estate*, we will account for your unique situation and work together with your legal council. Whether you have young children, are a business owner in need of a succession plan, or if you are a grandparent and would like to help pay for your grandchildren go to college.
*We do not provide tax or legal advice. Estate Planning services are provided working in conjunction with your estate planning attorney, tax attorney, and/or CPA. Consult them for specific advice on legal and tax matters.
