Select and design charitable gift and/or wealth transfer strategies that fit your estate tax, income tax and financial situation.

What Our Clients Have to Say

We thought our wills, trusts, and beneficiary designations covered all the important bases. The Bonadio Group's incredibly clear analysis illustrated how these instruments work together with our finances to find our current estate plans will not have the outcomes we intended. This session was well worth our investment and will result in decisions to better protect our family and our assets.
