A webinar
No one wants to pay taxes when they can be avoided. That is especially true with estate, gift, and inheritance taxes. Illinois is (unfortunately, but not surprisingly) one of the states that has its own level of estate tax, in addition to the taxes assessed at the federal level. But rest assured, there are strategies (some very simple) that can be instituted to avoid tax. The estate planning attorneys at Lavelle Law will explain various methods to mitigate these taxes, including gifting strategies, irrevocable trusts, insurance planning, and other options that will help ease the burden for your family. Be sure to join our webinar, as attorneys Walser, Warens, and Gardner will outline the steps to take now to ensure the assets you leave to your loved ones are protected from unnecessary taxes.
This is a FREE presentation, but registration via zoom is required.
There will be live, interactive Q&A during the webinar. In addition, if you would like to submit questions ahead of time, email us at webinar@lavellelaw.com
