As the world becomes more interconnected day by day, clients from around the world face increasingly complex challenges with International Estate Planning.

You or your family members might be living overseas, you might own property or businesses located overseas, or you might be married to someone who is not a citizen of the United States.

On the other hand, you may be a foreign national who wishes to invest in the U.S., or you may just want to live in the U.S. temporarily.  Each of these situations can impact your estate planning and can become real pitfalls for the unwary.

The team at Alley Law can help you find these international “blind spots” and craft solutions that fit your particular situation.
