Frequently Asked Questions
What does an estate planning attorney in Burlington do?
An estate planning attorney helps you prepare legal documents like wills, trusts, durable powers of attorney, and advance directives. They also guide you on Vermont estate tax planning and probate avoidance strategies.
Do I need a will in Vermont if I have a small estate?
Yes, having a will is still recommended even for small estates. Without a will, Vermont intestacy laws determine who inherits your property, which may not match your wishes. A will also lets you name a guardian for minor children.
What is the Vermont estate tax threshold for 2025?
For deaths in 2025, the Vermont estate tax exemption is $5 million. Estates valued above this amount are subject to state estate tax. Federal estate tax has a much higher exemption, currently over $13 million.
