Remain ahead of the curve to be able to keep your clients informed and able to combat significant wealth erosion.
The Federal tax-free estate (exclusion) is scheduled to drop by 50% at the end of 2025. That would, of course, provide a revenue increase for the Federal government if it happens. But there are other actual and potential revenue raisers (family wealth erosion possibilities) in the works: Increased IRS staff and audits; IRS position on what constitutes a gift and the value thereof; and possible tax increases to keep the government afloat. It is imperative that attorneys and other family wealth advisors remain ahead of the curve to be able to keep our clients informed and able to combat significant wealth erosion.
