The Missouri estate tax, formerly known as inheritance tax, is a tax levied on property upon transfer of ownership. This transfer usually occurs upon the death of an estate holder when the property is passed along to family members. The estate tax is applied to all property owned in Missouri, as well as in other states. If another state also seeks to tax the property, both states will work toward a compromise. The executor of an estate will file the tax returns for the property.
A comprehensive asset protection plan can help to shield an estate holder's property from excessive taxation. Your skilled attorney will thoroughly evaluate your estate and construct a plan that offers the best protection for your estate and family.
