Estate Planning for
Healthcare Professionals

If you’re a medical professional, you worked hard over the years to build your career — and it’s crucial to have an estate plan in place that will protect your assets and secure your family’s future.

 

Due to their liability exposure and high incomes, doctors face a number of critical issues when it comes to planning their estates. Importantly, estate planning for physicians should include asset protection and tax strategies — along with a plan for incapacity. Without proper planning, your family may incur a substantial tax burden, face legal battles, and have to deal with unnecessary stress.

 

Serving Rochester and other communities throughout Southeastern Minnesota, the estate planning attorney team at Wagner Oehler, Ltd., understands the unique challenges of estate planning for doctors. We can help you create an estate plan that will satisfy your objectives and safeguard your legacy.

5/5

Business Succession Planning for Physicians

  • This can help to ensure the continuity of the practice you worked so hard to build — and a smooth transition in the event of death, disability, retirement, or other life changes.
  • A detailed business succession plan for physicians should identify your successor, outline the transition process, and provide training opportunities for younger physicians who join the practice.
  • It can also include a method to determine the fair market value of the practice to help prevent the potential for disputes.

Trusts for Medical Professionals

  • Due to their profession, physicians face a much higher risk of lawsuits. A trust can be used to protect your assets from potential litigation.
  • A trust is a crucial financial planning tool that can allow you to manage your wealth efficiently and minimize your tax burden by removing assets from your taxable estate.
  • Trusts can be used to make a donation to a charitable cause you believe in, and leave a legacy behind that goes beyond providing for your family.
