From Holiday Conversations to Action

Estate Planning

By Robert M. Goldberg

Your Year-End Estate Planning Checklist

Did your Thanksgiving gathering spark important family discussions about the future? You’re not alone. Many of our clients find holiday conversations naturally lead to thoughts about estate planning and legacy.
As we move into December, here’s a practical checklist to turn those family discussions into action:

  1. Review Your Current Plan:
  • Has your family situation changed?
  • Have there been significant changes in your assets?
  • Are your beneficiary designations up to date?
  1. Consider Year-End Tax Planning:
  • Annual gift exclusions expire December 31
  • Charitable giving opportunities
  • Required minimum distributions from retirement accounts
  1. Update Important Documents:
  • Wills and trusts
  • Healthcare directives
  • Powers of attorney
  • Insurance beneficiaries

Don’t let these important tasks get lost in the holiday shuffle. Our team is here to help you complete your estate planning before year’s end.

What our clients say about us

I highly recommend Mr. Goldberg for your estate planning. My husband and I have been retired for several years yet had never created a will. Mr. Goldberg created a plan for transitioning through late life events which should make our passing as easy as can be for our children — which was our goal.

Fantastic experience with Bob Goldberg. He has helped me with my parents estate planning, and I could not be more pleased with Bob and his team.

I needed to get my things in order for when I pass away as I am a single person. I attended a seminar sponsored by my Association and learned the difference between a Will and a Trust. I decided that a Living Trust was best for me. I set up an appointment with Robert M. Goldberg & Associates, and everyone was very friendly and professional. I learned a lot when I set up My Trust and feel so much better about the future of all my assets. I highly recommend this company to take care of your concerns.
