Generation-Skipping Trust
Thinking One Generation Further
This trust introduces advanced planning strategy in a surprisingly human way. Sometimes families want to support grandchildren directly while still protecting overall family wealth. This category feels strategic but also philosophical.
A Generation-Skipping Trust is a trust designed to transfer wealth to grandchildren or later generations while potentially reducing repeated estate taxation at each generational level.
- preserve wealth longer
- reduce estate tax exposure
- support grandchildren directly
- create long-term family planning structures
“Skipping a generation means cutting children out.”
Not necessarily. Many Generation-Skipping Trusts are designed to benefit multiple generations simultaneously while preserving long-term family assets.
- High-net-worth families
- Grandparents
- Multi-generational planners
- Families focused on tax efficiency and preservation
This trust reflects a broader planning mindset: "How do we think beyond immediate inheritance?"
Schedule a Complimentary 30-Minute Consultation
At Hurwitz.Law, we believe that thoughtful planning begins with a meaningful conversation.
We offer a private, 30-minute consultation—by phone or Zoom—for individuals and families considering estate planning, elder law, or trust administration services. This conversation allows us to understand your goals, answer your questions, and help determine whether our firm is the right fit for your needs.
Our firm is intentionally boutique. We work with a limited number of clients so that we can provide a high level of personal attention and care. If we’re not the right fit, we’ll do our best to point you in the right direction.
This consultation is not a sales pitch. It’s a conversation rooted in clarity, respect, and the belief that your time—and your legacy—deserve both.
