Interstate Estate Planning

Many complex estates in Florida are subjected to tax laws in multiple states. This is particularly true if you own property in another state or conduct business there. Certain states have their own forms of gift taxes, estate taxes and inheritance taxes.

Our experienced estate planning attorneys are familiar with these nuances. We can help you manage your assets across state lines to develop the best tax saving strategy for you and your loved ones.

In most cases, having the foresight to plan for your estate can prevent disagreements and legal action down the road. However, sometimes disputes involving an estate are inevitable. Our lawyers can effectively resolve such issues in mediation, arbitration or in court.
