Wellesley Estate and Tax Lawyers

Planning for the Future

It is arguable that there has never been a better time for gifting. There is a $5 million gift tax exemption in place right now. This exclusion will not last forever; it is slated to sunset in 2013. For anyone who has been accumulating wealth for many years, it is important to make sure that wealth gets passed on in the most efficient manner possible, minimizing tax consequences.
