International Trusts, Estates, Successions and Inheritances
Cross-border trusts, estates, and successions present unique legal and tax challenges. Clients with assets in multiple jurisdictions must consider the validity and enforcement of wills and trusts abroad, while beneficiaries of foreign inheritances face complex reporting and tax obligations at home. We counsel families, trustees, and beneficiaries on the interaction of U.S. and Italian succession laws, inheritance taxes, and trust recognition rules to ensure that wealth transfers are carried out effectively and in compliance with applicable law.
Attorneys
Our attorneys advise on international succession planning, the enforcement of foreign wills and trusts, and the legal and tax implications of inheritances across borders. We assist clients in navigating forced heirship rules, trust recognition issues, and the reporting and compliance obligations that apply to cross-border transfers of wealth. We also counsel trustees and beneficiaries on their responsibilities under U.S. and Italian law, including inheritance and gift tax regimes.
In partnership with Marco Q. Rossi & Associati (Of Counsel) we deliver coordinated strategies that protect family wealth, respect differing legal traditions, and reduce the risk of costly disputes.
