Planning and preserving the accumulation, management and transfer of wealth in the most tax-efficient manner involves development and implementation of strategies across a broad spectrum. Gray Reed attorneys provide a full range of estate planning and probate services as well as probate and fiduciary litigation.
In addition, today’s trust and estate matters require comprehensive knowledge of other areas of the law, particularly when working with family offices and business owners. Our trusts and estates team works synergistically with the firm’s other attorneys in such areas as family law, business law, taxation and real estate.
Our trust and estate attorneys take a custom approach to analyzing the nature of a client's assets and family dynamics to formulate a personalized estate plan and, when necessary, a litigation or litigation-avoidance strategy, for a client's family and business circumstances. Estate planning clients and their families are guided through the estate planning process with careful consideration of the impact of estate, gift and generation-skipping taxes on the financial security of surviving family members. Trust and estate litigation clients receive thoughtful, proactive counsel and skilled representation in order to be equipped with the confidence and information required to make the best decisions for their case, their families and their goals.
