In WILLS & ESTATE PLANNING--Oregon Handbook, Revised Edition, Portland attorney Rees Johnson, with over 30 years experience in estate planning, updates his comprehensive overview of wills and estates, incorporating recent changes in Oregon and federal laws. He also provides updates in a free newsletter and on his website. Written without "legalese," WILLS & ESTATE PLANNING looks at various consequences of different planning tools, such as the effect a strategy to avoid estate taxes may have upon the donor's ability to control the property, and upon the recipient's income tax liability and even eligibility for college financial aid. A discussion of Oregon's Death with Dignity Act, a glossary, and a sample will are included.
