Many families spend a lifetime building wealth, yet rarely plan for one crucial question: how to pass on their home, savings, and business smoothly — and tax-efficiently — to the next generation? Without planning, families often pay a heavy price: intestate succession turning into family disputes, avoidable estate tax eroding an inheritance, and cross-state or overseas assets becoming a minefield.

To help, the Asian American Attorneys Association (AAAA) and the California Asian American Attorneys Association (CAAAA) will co-host “East Coast vs. West Coast — A Practical Seminar on Protecting and Passing On Family Wealth,” bringing together experienced attorneys from both coasts.

Speakers: Elizabeth Yang, Esq. (Founder, Yang Law Offices, California) and Yanfei Ran, Esq. (Founding Chair, AAAA, New York). Moderator: Qiang Bjornbak, Esq. (Founding President, CAAAA).

Topics include: the pitfalls of intestate succession; how to avoid or reduce estate tax; parental gifts; property purchases by non-residents; the inheritance complications of divorce or multiple marriages; and special issues with cross-state and overseas assets.
