Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in Massachusetts?
A basic estate plan in Massachusetts typically includes a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney, a health care proxy, and a living will. These documents work together to manage your assets and medical decisions if you become incapacitated.
Does Massachusetts have an estate tax?
Yes, Massachusetts imposes an estate tax on estates valued over $1 million as of 2024. This is a lower threshold than the federal exemption, so many Gloucester residents may need to plan for state estate tax liability.
How long does Massachusetts probate take?
Massachusetts probate typically takes 6 to 12 months for simple estates, but complex cases can take longer. The process involves filing a petition in the Essex County Probate and Family Court, which serves Gloucester.
