7 Major Errors in Estate Planning

Forbes Magazine on April 25 published an article titled “7 Major Errors in Estate Planning.”  The seven errors listed are a no-nonsense list of the mistakes we Estate Planning lawyers see daily.  They are:

1.  “Not having an Estate Plan.”

2.  “Online Do-It-Yourself Estate Planning rather than using an experienced Estate Planning attorney do the work.”

3.  “Failure to Review Beneficiary Designations and Titling of Assets.”

4.  “Failure to Consider the Estate and Gift Tax Consequences of Life Insurance.”

5.  “Not Maximizing Annual Gifts.”

6.  “Failure to Take Advantage of the Estate Tax Exemption in 2012.”

7.  “Leaving assets outright to Adult Children.”
