San Rafael, California Real Estate Attorneys Handle Estate Planning for Significant Net Worth

 

Am I a high net worth?

We hope so! For our estate planning purposes you are “high net worth” when you equal or exceed a net worth of $5,000,000 for an individual or $10,000,000 for a couple.

Why does it matter?

High net worth individuals are exposed to more taxes, whether they are labeled estate taxes, death taxes, income taxes, capital gain taxes or other taxes. With each tax, or combination of taxes, there may be a way to reduce taxes and expand wealth.

Also, the wealthier you become, the more of a target you become, whether it is from “predators” or through unfortunate situations, such as personal injury lawsuits. As noted in our website’s more comprehensive section on “asset protection,” the concept of maneuvering your estate to keep your assets secure is a financial priority.
