Estate Planning

Estate planning is a comprehensive term that applies various aspects of your estate including succession planning, estate tax planning, and health care considerations.

Wills and trusts are common tools to use to transfer your assets to your heirs upon your death. There are also a number of strategies that can be employed to legally minimize, and in some instances completely avoid, gift and estate taxes.

It is also helpful to make decisions in advance with respect to your health care, such as the use of a Utah Advance Health Care Directive to express your desires with respect to health care decisions and the use of artificial means to prolong your life.
