On account of the large current wealth transfer exemption, reduction of estate, gift and GST taxes is no longer a primary goal of estate planning for individuals whose wealth does not exceed such a level.  Rather, the principal focus is other ways to build or maintain wealth, and this presentation will discuss these goals and how best to achieve them.

Jonathan G. Blattmachr is Director of Estate Planning for Peak Trust Company (formerly Alaska Trust Company) and a Director/Principal of Pioneer Wealth Partners, LLC in a boutique wealth advisory firm located in Chicago and New York. He is a Principal at Interactive Legal Services Management, LLC, serving as its Editor-in-Chief and Co-Author of its cornerstone products, Wealth Transfer Planning™ and Elder Law Planning™ and a retired member of Milbank (formerly Milbank Tweed Hadley & McCloy LLP) and of the New York, Alaska and California bars. He is recognized as one of the most creative trusts and estates lawyers in the country and is listed in the Best Lawyers in America.

He graduated from Columbia University School of Law, cum laude, where he was recognized as a Harlan Fiske Stone Scholar. He has written and lectured extensively on estate and trust taxation and charitable giving and is author or co-author of nine books and more than 500 articles on estate planning and tax topics. Jonathan was on active duty in the US Army from 1970 to 1972, rising to the rank of Captain and was awarded the Army Commendation Medal. He is an instrument rated land and seaplane pilot and a licensed hunting and fishing guide in the Town of Southampton, New York.
