Most estate plans cover what happens to your assets when you die. Very few cover what happens to your surviving spouse's tax bill the year after.

The widow penalty is one of the first things we raise when we sit down with couples, because by the time most surviving spouses find out about it, it is too late to plan around it.

That conversation belongs in the plan. Not on April 15th.

"The document looked fine. The bank said no."

This is one of the most common situations we see, and one of the most preventable.

A Power of Attorney that has never been registered at your financial institution is a plan that hasn't been tested yet. Let's fix that before a crisis does it for you.

Many major banks have their own internal POA forms. A valid, attorney-drafted document can be rejected simply because it is not THEIR paperwork.

Knowing that ahead of time is the difference between a plan that exists and a plan that works.
