Attorneys and Estate Planners

A life insurance policy is a valuable asset that is utilized by attorneys and estate planners, to provide clients with financial and estate protection. As an attorney or estate planner, your heightened awareness of this beneficial tool will command the respect you deserve from your clients, as a well-informed and practicing professional.

A Life Settlement is a great way to improve upon an estate plan, or to fund a charitable giving program. As a charitable gift, your clients could receive a substantially larger tax deduction when utilizing a Life Settlement. By donating coverage already in force, or new coverage to be issued, your clients may realize the “true” value of their life policy, greatly increasing their gift to the charity of their choice,. As an estate plan supplement, a Life Settlement can liquidate a policy which is no longer needed, providing funds for other purposes in the estate plan.

Your Fiduciary Duty

Many legal experts believe that as a professional, it is your fiduciary duty to inform your clients of all available options for life insurance policies, as well as other assets in your client’s portfolio. Policies previously purchased as an estate planning tool may now be more valuable if liquidated, and the proceeds used to purchase new coverage. Term policies that in the past would typically have lapsed and lost all value, may now have substantial value.
