Reviews of the book:

“Estate planning today is a dauntingly complex challenge. The experts in this book cut through that complexity to offer useful insights into trusts, taxation, insurance, and many other estate-related topics.” 

Kenneth Silber

Senior Editor, Research magazine

Hoboken, New Jersey

 

“WealthCounsel has brought together a collection of articles that should be read by both the professional adviser and the theoretician who wants to understand how the financial concepts discussed can be used in practical applications.  This collection of articles is both timely and relevant and will prove to be a valuable resource for consumers, financial planners, and estate planning professionals.”

“This book is a great tool. It can help you gain an easy understanding of the many estate strategies available. The information discussed throughout this book is invaluable. It is a “must have” for advisors that work with high net worth clients.”

“WealthCounsel's new book, Estate Planning Strategies, clearly shows the reader who has an interest in preserving and protecting his or her hard-earned wealth the procedures to make sure those dollars and benefits go to the ones they love.  Written and edited by experienced estate planning experts, it flows, is easy to follow, and has good illustrations and flowcharts to boot.”

“This book is a treasury of wisdom, usable suggestions, and resource information that will be of great benefit to readers.  Its broad coverage will appeal to the novice as well as the seasoned professional.”

“This is a state-of-the-art, best practices compendium of estate planning tools and thinking. Estate planning continues to be, if done properly, a priceless gift to the ones we care about and this publication can greatly enhance that gift.”

 

Gary L. Myers, J.D., LL. M. in estate planning

Family Investment Center, Inc.

 

"This book could create the 'new' state-of-the-art of estate planning, written at the intersection of a high level of expertise and practical client application.  A critical reference tool for the client looking for unbiased planning tools based upon multiple lifetimes of experience (and ‘written in English’ for non-lawyers), this work contains a plethora of useful material for the practitioner in the financial planning, legal, and accounting fields as well. What makes this work so fascinating is its approach in the delivery of dozens of experts over multiple topics, complete with enough overlap to create an inherent second opinion."

“A remarkably practical and useful book! Think of it as Everything You Always Wanted to Know about Estate Planning, But Were Afraid to Ask. Short and to-the-point chapters, clear definitions, abundant worksheets, and (best of all) many practical examples to help us get our heads around this arcane but vitally important field. I especially appreciate the inclusion of unexpected topics such as: transferring your values and ideals (and not just your stuff); non-traditional relationships and evolving definitions of marriage; “modest philanthropy” (i.e., expressing your values with small gifts); and Pet Trusts. WealthCounsel® Estate Planning Strategies lives up to the promise of its subtitle: “Collective Wisdom. Proven Techniques.” A great reference for financial planners and their clients!”

 

Ed Jacobson, Ph.D.

Author of Appreciative Moments: Stories and Practices for Living and Working Appreciatively

 

“This book is an invaluable resource and "must-have" for both professionals and consumers who are interested in maximizing their wealth through estate planning. It makes complex estate planning strategies easy-to-read and comprehend for virtually anyone...which is quite an accomplishment!”

“Fantastic!  It’s like a "Chicken Soup for the Wealth Advisor's (and their clients) Soul!" This book is smart, easy to read and full of great ideas.  I love the variety of estate planning insights and the geographic diversity of the attorneys who present them.  It’s a "first step" resource I can use to help my clients understand what can often be challenging concepts.”

Lisa Dickholtz, CFP®

“This book is the perfect book for the lay person.  Confusion melts away as the reader reviews the simple examples and clearly written chapters.”

“By far, the best book on estate planning I've ever seen.  It offers everything consumers and allied professionals need:  it's comprehensive, authoritative, up-to-date and clearly written, answering all the common questions people ask about estate planning, and then some.  I can't wait to give this book to my financial planning clients.  They're going to love me!”

 

Peter W. Johnson, Jr.

“The WealthCounsel Estate Planning Strategies book will be one of those publications you keep within reach as a comprehensive, search-here-first resource for all of your estate planning questions.  Nearly 100 estate planning attorneys and experts give you brief, to-the-point guidelines for every imaginable estate planning scenario, complete with worksheets and information tables.  And this book isn't just for advisors’ clients; with chapters like 'Business Succession Planning' and 'Limited Liability Companies,' you'll find it essential in running your own business, too.”
