Frequently Asked Questions
What documents are included in a basic estate plan in Maryland?
A basic estate plan typically includes a last will and testament, a financial power of attorney, and an advance medical directive. In Maryland, the advance medical directive combines a living will and a healthcare power of attorney into one document.
Does Maryland have an estate tax?
Yes, Maryland imposes a state estate tax on estates valued over a certain exemption amount, which changes annually. For 2024 the exemption is $5 million. Estates below this threshold do not owe Maryland estate tax, but federal estate tax may still apply for larger estates.
How long does Maryland probate take?
Probate in Maryland typically takes 6 to 12 months for a simple estate, but can take longer if there are disputes or complex assets. The process involves filing the will with the Register of Wills in Prince Georges County and notifying creditors, who have 6 months to file claims.
