Tax Law Changes and Your Estate Plan

Tax laws evolve, sometimes quietly, and those changes can reshape how your estate plan actually works. In this video, Liz talks about why it’s so important to revisit your documents, beneficiary designations, and long-term intentions to make sure everything still lines up with today’s rules. You’ll also hear why a few smart updates can help protect the people you care about and avoid unnecessary taxes down the road.

Here’s some of what we discuss in today’s show:

- Impact of recent tax law changes: how shifting rules affect IRA distributions and legacy strategies
- Changes to credit shelter trusts: why older structures may now create unintended tax issues
- State-specific estate tax considerations: the difference between federal and state requirements
- Simplifying estate plans: choosing options that adapt to future law changes
