Legacy planning is a process that enables you to manage and preserve your wealth, including personal or corporate finances, for future generations. It requires a customized plan based on your specific financial situation. At GDS Wealth Management, we utilize our strengths in estate planning, charitable giving, and tax planning to allow your assets to continue to reflect your personal values.  

Your assets, including your investments, personal belongings, and company assets, if applicable, are distributed according to your personal preferences. If you have no such plan, your assets may be distributed in a manner that does not reflect your wishes. This could lead to conflicts between your family members or legal disputes. Having an estate plan to control the distribution of your assets benefits everyone—you, your family, and the causes you care about. Our experienced team has the resources to assist your attorney and CPA with a personalized plan that not only protects your assets but also helps you share your wealth with the people and charities you care about most. 

At GDS Wealth Management, we understand that one of life’s greatest rewards is sharing your wealth with others. We will help you develop a plan that meets your specific goals and put in place all the legal documents to confirm that your assets are distributed in accordance with your wishes.
