Did you know that the federal government assesses taxes on estates when they are passed to the beneficiaries? Although the current year is a bit different with the estate tax, next year there will be a tax put on estates over a certain amount. There are many techniques available for the reduction or elimination of estate taxes which can be matched to the particular circumstances of the individual. This can be accomplished by having a proper estate plan in place.
