Estate Planning and Administration

Estate planning requires the identification and implementation of the clients' individual desires while considering family, financial and tax issues. Ice Miller's attorneys are experienced in innovative planning techniques that address the objectives of our clients with individual attention and sensitivity. We prepare carefully tailored wills, trusts and many other instruments that include sophisticated tax minimization techniques. When clients pass away, we provide counsel to executors, trustees and beneficiaries in the often complex administration of estates and trusts, including federal estate tax matters, the many elections that are involved in them, and the disposition of fine art and collections.
