Estate Planning Strategies
Estate Planning Strategies to Preserve Your Legacy
A thoughtful estate plan helps to ensure your assets are passed on according to your wishes—not dictated by courts, taxes, or unintended recipients. At Alpina Financial Consultants, we help you create a clear, legally sound legacy strategy that honors your values and safeguards your loved ones.
Why Estate Planning Matters
Without proper planning, your estate could be subject to lengthy probate, high taxes, or decisions made by people who don’t know your intentions. We work alongside your estate attorney to help build a plan that ensures your wealth benefits the people and causes you care about most.
What We Help With
- Will Structuring Guidance: Understand your options—from simple to living wills—so your legal team can draft documents that reflect your wishes.
- Powers of Attorney (POA): Ensure financial and medical decisions are handled properly if you're incapacitated.
- Executor Selection Support: Choose the right individuals to carry out your estate with integrity and clarity.
- Beneficiary Designation: Ensure your assets go to the right people—without confusion or conflict.
- Minimize Taxes & Probate: Help to reduce estate tax liability and legal fees that could diminish your legacy.
- Asset Protection: Safeguard property, investments, and long-term holdings until distribution.
- Legacy Distribution: Align your estate documents to help ensure smooth and intentional transfers.
Build a Legacy That Lasts
