IRAs, 401Ks, and Retirement Accounts: Inheriting & Minimizing Taxes

Believe us when we say you don’t know nearly enough about your IRAs and other retirement accounts. The laws about passing on IRAs to heirs are complex and fraught with peril for both you and your beneficiaries. Statistics show that 87% of heirs make disastrous mistakes with the IRA accounts they inherit—losing 50% or more to taxes.

These legal webinars & blogs deal with handling IRAs during your lifetime and beyond: What are RMDs and how do I take them? Can my beneficiaries cash in my IRA? Should my IRA be in my Living Trust? Should I convert my regular IRA to a Roth IRA? What if I inherit an IRA? Will I get taxed on my parents’ IRA now that I own it? Is there some way to lower the tax on an inherited IRA? What is an IRA Legacy Trust and do I need one?
