Areas of Practice
We have focused and advanced expertise with complicated and expansive estate and succession planning. We partner with clients and their advisers not only in areas of advanced estate planning but also in retirement planning, business planning, and IRS representation. Your estate reflects your legacy. It was built carefully and should be protected just as carefully—with your best interests in mind.
Estate Planning
Estate planning is essential for everyone, but as your assets increase the complexities of managing those assets also increase. A secure estate plan that accounts for each complexity and the possible outcome is vital to ensuring your legacy and your investment distributions are aligned with your wishes.
Advanced Estate Planning
As business investments increase and grow, they often correlate to accelerated growth of your personal assets and investments. Estates can gain in complexity quickly, which creates multiple questions and vulnerabilities relating to family, health, economic impact, and unexpected events. Advanced estate planning quickly becomes an important component of your protection, including avoiding and/or eliminating inheritance taxes and preparing for distinctive family assets. At Endacott Timmer, we will arrange that your family wealth transfers in a way that both protects and benefits the next generation.
Trust and Estate Administration
The administration of a trust or an estate involves a myriad of options and tax elections. If the right options are chosen, often the tax benefits for the beneficiaries can be significant. A wrong step can result in unforeseen tax surprises. At Endacott Timmer, we have decades of experience navigating the trust and estate administration process and taking advantage of techniques to reduce income taxes, often teaming up with a client’s certified public accounting firm to obtain the optimal results for a client. Fiduciary litigation has become a burgeoning business. At Endacott Timmer we work with trustees, personal representatives, and other fiduciaries to be proactive and to take steps that minimize the risk of a fiduciary becoming involved in unwanted litigation.
Retirement Asset Planning
Setting and reaching retirement goals in relation to time and wealth is an important part of everyday interactions and investments. You want to take advantage of beneficial tax rules and feel confident that you’ve maximized the investment in yourself as much as possible—as opposed to an investment in the IRS. We can assist you in understanding how to transfer these assets as part of your estate planning. Together, we can review your required documentation and plan your retirement to protect you and your family’s short- and long-term interests.
Business Succession Planning
As your estate and investments reach a higher level of complexity, it is important to ensure that a succession plan is in place to properly oversee and manage those complexities long-term. Estate and succession planning work together—decisions around one entity affect the other. This makes it important to manage both short-term and long-term management aspects are considered in alignment with business and family dynamics. The details can be complex and lengthy, but our expertise will ensure you are confident in the outcome.
