SAN ANTONIO ESTATE PLANNING

San Antonio Estate Planning

You have spent your life working and building a life that you are proud of. Make sure you’re leaving a legacy that will make you just as proud. If you’re looking for San Antonio estate planning services, then you’ve come to the right place. Most of the time, people think of lawyers when they think of estate planning, but our extensive knowledge of tax laws and regulations will help you make the best decisions for you and your beneficiaries.

Writing a will is an extremely important thing to do, especially if you’re married, have children, or have a large estate. Because we understand the tax laws and liabilities of your estate and the potential tax burden on your beneficiaries, we will help maximize the value of your estate and minimize the amount that your beneficiaries will lose to the IRS.

Your Estate Plan

Whether or not you create an estate plan, you have one. If your estate is intestate, that is, you die without a will, your state of residence has an estate plan for you. This plan may not be what you want, and a sizable portion of your estate can end up being spent on legal and court fees. Make sure that your estate is distributed the way you want.

In order for your estate to be carried out and distributed in accordance to your wishes, you must have a will. Our experienced CPAs can help you plan your estate to make sure that you leave the legacy you want and ensure that it is administered accordingly.

Why Use a CPA For Your Estate Planning?

While a lawyer understands whether or not you can legally do something in your estate, they are not as familiar with tax laws and liabilities and therefore do not necessarily understand the financial and tax consequences. However, as CPAs, we have intimate knowledge of tax laws, meaning that we can help you make the best decisions for you and your beneficiaries.

  • Strategically minimize the amount subject to taxes
  • File gift and other tax returns
  • Limit the tax burden on your beneficiaries
  • Maximize the amount of your estate that is dispersed to your beneficiaries
