Frequently Asked Questions
What documents does an estate plan typically include in Hawaii?
A standard Hawaii estate plan often includes a last will and testament, a revocable living trust, a durable power of attorney, and an advance health care directive. Hawaii law allows you to name a health care agent and specify your wishes for medical treatment. Your attorney will tailor these documents to your family situation and property.
How does Hawaii probate work for Kihei residents?
Hawaii probate is the court supervised process of administering a deceased persons estate. If you die without a trust, your estate may go through probate in the Second Circuit Court on Maui. Hawaii law sets a 4 month creditor claim period after the personal representative is appointed, and the process can take 6 to 12 months or longer.
What is the Hawaii estate or inheritance tax?
Hawaii does not have an inheritance tax, but it does have a state estate tax. For 2024, the Hawaii estate tax exemption is $5.49 million per individual, which is lower than the federal exemption. Estates valued above this threshold may owe Hawaii estate tax, so proper planning is important to reduce the tax burden.
