[WSBARP] Married Couple - WA estate tax minimization - German non-US Citizen spouse

[James R Ihnot]

I have a slightly different issue but one that may also apply to Neli's
client.

 

My client has a son in Germany who is a German citizen. I understand they
will tax his inheritance at 50%. 

Looking for someone familiar with German law to minimize her son's taxes. 

 

 

 

 

 

Jim
