How does a living trust eliminate death taxes in many cases?
A living trust may allow a couple to effectively double the basic estate tax exemption ($13,610,000 in 2024 under present law, doubled to $27,220,000). This saves over $4,100,000 in death taxes.
If you have a typical will which leaves everything to your surviving spouse, your children may have to pay up to over that $4,100,000 in taxes that could have been avoided. We charge only an extra few hundred dollars to save such taxes in a trust for a couple – quite a good investment.
