Frequently Asked Questions
What does an estate planning attorney in Vandalia do?
An estate planning attorney helps you prepare legal documents like wills, trusts, and healthcare directives. They ensure your assets transfer according to your wishes and comply with Ohio laws. They can also help minimize estate taxes and avoid probate.
Do I need a will in Ohio?
If you die without a will in Ohio, state law determines who inherits your property through intestacy rules. This may not match your wishes, especially if you have minor children or a blended family. A will lets you choose beneficiaries and name a guardian for your children.
What is the Ohio estate tax threshold?
Ohio does not have a state estate tax as of 2024. However, federal estate tax applies to estates over $13.61 million in 2024. An attorney can help you plan for federal tax liability if your estate is large.
