GST Trusts -
(August, 2004) As we have pointed out in past articles, estate taxes represent the
single largest threat to a family's wealth over the course of several generations.

consume more than half of your family's wealth without proper planning.

Insurance In Your Estate - (October, 2003) If you're like most people, the proceeds collected from your life
insurance will make up a large portion of your estate and, if you're not
careful, the proceeds can end up being taxed twice when your spouse passes
on.
Estate

on their estate would rank near the top of the list.
