The 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act became law on December 22, 2017, with most provisions becoming effective on January 1, 2018. Some provisions are permanent, while others expire. Most significant for gift and estate tax purposes is the temporary doubling of several exemptions.
This presentation will provide an analysis of the statutory grounds affording estate planners the opportunity to petition the court for approval of the estate plan during the settler’s life.
