Media Estate Planning Attorney Discusses Reducing Taxes

 Delaware County Estate Planning Attorney Discusses Reducing TaxesAs an experienced Media Estate Planning Attorney I am often asked how one can reduce their taxes.  It’s interesting that one of our primary functions, at least in the recent past, has been dealing with the impact of the federal estate tax on an estate. The rates at one point could reach as high as 55%. They are currently around 40%. Because of changes that took place in 2012, most estates are no longer subject to a federal estate tax. If your estate is under $5,450,000 and twice that amount if you’re a married couple, you have no exposure to the federal estate tax. That doesn’t mean that we still aren’t interested in ways to reduce the cost of settling your estate. This really involves some of the issues that we’ve talked about previously, but also making sure that your estate is handled in an efficient way. That really goes into the planning that you do while you are still alive.

Do you have questions about reducing taxes on your estate?  If so, contact the experienced Media Estate Planning Attorney Edward Perkins.

Client Reviews

“I highly Recommend Gibson & Perkins. I have used their services for approximately 6 years now and been through a few cases together with very positive outcomes. Personally, I have used Paul Fellman and Walter Timby on those occasions. Both, as a team & separately these Attorneys were wonderful to work with and easily accessible to reach if I had any questions. Professionalism is the word that comes to mind to describe the firm, as a whole. Always completely prepared for any surprises that may pop up during a trial. They were well versed on all pertinent info pertaining to each case. As I client, I always felt I was an integral part of the team, not an after-thought, that had to be brought up to speed a half hour before the trial started. I could not recommend this firm and Mr. Fellman and Mr. Timby any higher.”
