Optimizing Your Estate Strategy

Critical strategies to explore in 2024 before next year’s tax code changes

Without legislation intervention, the tax code will see significant changes in 2025. That means that some families will see a significant increase to their estate taxes liability without making adjustments. How can your family capture today’s historically high exemption levels to preserve more of your generational wealth? We are helping families like yours answer that exact question, and on July 24th you are invited to attend a Steak 101 course followed by a discussion of key estate planning strategies at famous Swift & Sons.

What we will cover:

  • The current estate tax landscape and the projected changes that are coming
  • What planning opportunities exist now to “lock in” the historically high exemption
  • Different strategies being considered and deployed today by wealthy families
  • Specific consideration for Illinois residents

Master the Art of Steak: Exclusive Pre-Dinner Class with Chef Ed Hicks

Steak 101 is a pre-dinner class taught by Swift and Sons Chef de Cusine, Ed Hicks. This 30-minute demo class is done before the estate presentation and dinner service. The chef will bring large cuts of meat into the room and discuss each of them, also opening things up to guests for an interactive Q&A session.

Ed Hicks
Chef De Cuisine
Swift and Sons

Take everything that connotes Midwestern charm—effusive goodwill, love of community, and a killer work ethic—and you will find its embodiment in Chef Chris Pandel. His food is just as appealing: rooted in classic French technique and predominantly local Midwestern ingredients, Pandel's cooking is rustic, yet refined.

Beginning in October 2015, you can find Pandel in the kitchen at Swift & Sons. The Swift & Sons menu displays Pandel's signature focus on high quality, locally sourced ingredients and refined cooking techniques with an elevated twist on steakhouse classics, a "boutique beef" program, thoughtful vegetarian dishes, and seasonal sides.
