Here at Awoye Capital, we can help you create charitable strategies, structure donations to reduce taxable income, create donor advised funds, advise on how to grow your nonprofit organization, and much more.
Estate planning lets you dictate how your assets will be handled if you pass away or become disabled in some capacity. Awoye Capital can build a plan that achieves your vision and ensures your life wishes are carried through. Without an estate plan, client assets, and in some cases medical care decisions, would be handled by the state in which that person resides. We recommend that everybody that estate planning applies to, should develop a comprehensive estate plan. How we work to build your estate plan:
-
Work with your attorney or recommend estate attorney to create or maintain certain documents. Wills, Trust, Power of Attorney, etc
-
Ongoing beneficiary and trust reviews for all accounts.
-
Work with accountant/cpa to handle estate transfers and create/monitor estate tax strategy.
-
Consistently monitor insurances and risk management strategies
