• Review and updating of retirement plans and beneficiary designations to make sure they conform to the estate plan;

• Discussions concerning available distribution options and tax consequences to beneficiaries;

• Discussions concerning possibility of charitable beneficiaries to reduce income and estate taxes;

• Discussions concerning “stretch” IRAs to defer income taxation and trust arrangements for younger family members.
