Estate planning requires a special sensitivity to the dynamics of your entire life - family, finances, business, lifestyle, and goals. At SEK, we stress the importance of income tax planning as part of comprehensive estate and gift planning. We work with you to identify and clarify your goals, explain projected tax and other consequences, and recommend alternative strategies. Estate planning is not just for the wealthy; anyone who owns a home, car, investments, retirement plan account, collectibles, and more, has an estate.
