Estate planning is an essential component of any healthy financial plan; yet, as your wealth increases, so does the potential complexity of your estate planning needs. Ivins, Phillips & Barker's attorneys work with our clients to identify goals and tailor estate plans designed to preserve assets and provide income for ensuing generations, reduce unnecessary tax exposure, and fund philanthropic causes.
IPB has had considerable experience in addressing a broad range of domestic and international issues and in developing comprehensive individual and family estate plans that take into consideration the unique relationships and goals of each client. This experience transcends tax issues and can only be gained through decades of practice.
