Description

Estate planners face complex challenges when a client resides in one state but benefits from the advantages afforded by another. Estate planners must implement effective planning techniques that take advantage of the best solution for their client, not just the most convenient.

Multijurisdictional estate issues are compounded when a client has more than one personal residence. Fortunately, conscious and careful planning enhances the client’s conflict of law position while inattention to this detail often paints the client into an undesired corner.

There are several key points that counsel must address in designing estate plans for clients with multijurisdictional interests. In addition to the critical task of establishing key facts and favorable arguments for conflicts of law issues, estate planners must also consider strategies to minimize state taxes, achieve transfer tax planning outcomes, and harvest benefits afforded by foreign states. The presenter provides suggestions on how to retain representation and control of a client’s plan even when states outside of your license are used.

Listen as Mr. Aaron Hegji of Wealthgate Trust provides a thorough and practical guide to meeting the challenges of estate planning for clients with assets in multiple jurisdictions.
