Investing and estate planning go hand-in-hand.
We manage trust assets.
A benefit of a trust is the ability to add multiple layers of fiduciaries to help manage the underlying investments with a high level of care. The goal is to make sure the rules stated within the trust are adhered to so the assets will reach their desired beneficiary at the stated timing. IF works directly with trustees to help manage trust investments and keep the trust assets in low-cost investments while sticking to the trust document guidelines.
Your family office.
Ensuring the preservation and enhancement of your family's wealth is paramount at Integritas Financial.
That's why we take a white glove approach to guiding and educating you and your family through the estate planning process. As your advocate, our goal is to ensure that your wishes are planned for and that you understand how your family's wealth will be divided after you are gone.
We give you control.
A great estate plan will give you peace of mind by giving you control over your life’s work after you're gone.
It will allow you to control who will look after your finances, your dependents, and your business interests, as well as who will inherit from you. It may also let you avoid probate expenses and estate taxes, particularly if you implement certain trusts into your estate plan.
A life less taxing.
Our hand-selected team of attorneys can help you minimize or eliminate the impact of certain wealth transfer taxes using an array of sophisticated estate planning techniques.
Your estate plan may include the use of specialized Trusts that can leave more to your family by maximizing the use of the marital deduction, the estate tax exemption, and freezing techniques, or more to charity, as you desire.
