Estate Planning Essentials We Assist With

Beneficiary Review


Regularly reviewing beneficiaries prevents outdated designations from disrupting your estate goals. We review your accounts, life insurance, and annuities to ensure they reflect your current wishes.

Will & Trust Coordination


We work closely with your estate attorney to provide financial data and recommendations that simplify the legal drafting process and ensure your estate plan aligns with your assets and goals.

Legacy & Charitable Goals


If charitable giving or family gifting is part of your plan, we integrate those objectives through tax-smart methods such as donor-advised funds, life insurance, or 529 college savings plans.

Estate Tax Considerations


While federal estate tax exemptions cover most South Carolina families, we evaluate potential state-level concerns and advanced trust options for higher-net-worth clients or business owners.

Creating a Strategic Estate Plan


Estate planning goes beyond writing a will—it includes trusts, beneficiary designations, and tax-efficient strategies to ensure a smooth transfer of wealth. We help you structure your plan in a way that minimizes complications and maximizes financial security for your heirs.


By addressing key factors such as asset protection, charitable giving, and long-term care considerations, we create a plan that aligns with your personal and financial goals.

  • What is the difference between a will and a trust?

    A will outlines how your assets should be distributed after your passing, while a trust allows for greater control, privacy, and potential tax benefits.

  • Who needs an estate plan?

    Anyone with assets, dependents, or specific wishes for their wealth should have an estate plan. Without one, your estate may go through probate, causing delays and complications.

  • How can estate planning reduce taxes?

     Proper planning can help minimize estate taxes and ensure more of your wealth goes to your heirs instead of the government. We use tax-efficient strategies to protect your assets.

  • How often should I update my estate plan?

    Estate plans should be reviewed periodically, especially after major life events such as marriage, divorce, birth of a child, or significant financial changes.
