Utilizing A Trust To Reduce Or Eliminate Your Estate Tax

Most people are interested in passing their wealth to their heirs. With the demise of the baby-boomer generation, an enormous transfer of wealth will occur during the coming years. The government is poised to capture this wealth through the estate tax, which is imposed upon death.
Currently, the Federal estate tax exemption amount is $1.5 million for individuals and $3 million for married couples. Any amount over the exemption will be taxed (Federal estate taxes average around 45%). Furthermore, this tax must be paid within nine months after you die.
Personal Injury Litigation – Negligence Cases
Personal injury litigation can be classified into 2 different categories. These are as follows:

Intentional acts/’torts’ – These are the wrongful acts of another person which entitles the injured party to seek damages through the court.
This article is about the first category, that is, the negligence cases.
When the person causing the harm shows carelessness towards the safety of other people and end up causing injury to the other person unintentionally, the cause of such an action is termed as “negligence”.
