Legacy planning doesn't have to be stressful. With the right tools and timely strategies, you can stay true to your vision and help your loved ones feel prepared. Here are a few key things to keep in mind: • The amount you can pass on without federal estate or gift tax is $15 million per person—or $30 million for married couples in 2026. These higher limits give families more flexibility and room to plan for the future. • Preparing your wealth transfer priorities today can make a meaningful difference. Name beneficiaries, establish a will and consider trusts. • Gifting can also play a role.
