Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in Connecticut?
A basic estate plan typically includes a last will and testament, a durable power of attorney, a healthcare directive, and a living will. Connecticut also recognizes a statutory short form power of attorney for financial decisions.
Do I need a trust instead of a will in Connecticut?
Trusts can help avoid probate and provide more control over asset distribution, but they are not necessary for everyone. Connecticut does not have a mandatory probate requirement for small estates under $40,000, so a will may suffice for simpler situations.
How does Connecticut estate tax affect my plan?
Connecticut imposes an estate tax on estates valued over $9.1 million in 2024, with rates starting at 7.2 percent and increasing to 12 percent. Proper planning can help reduce or defer this tax liability.
