Being an immigrant to America should be a wonderful, life-changing opportunity. But it can also be extremely challenging, accompanied by some unique and idiosyncratic rules and regulations.
Our mission & purpose is to help fellow expats and immigrants thrive in America.
We believe that this can be achieved, in large part, by avoiding the expat landmines that can trip them up and by taking advantage of all available opportunities.

30. How to get a US/UK cross-border estate plan done | Ask An Expert with Paula Jones
Working with cross-border attorneys who have expertise in both US and UK law is crucial for navigating the complexities of international estate planning. Luckily, we’ve got one here. Paula Jones is a cross-border estate planning attorney. She’s the principal and founder of Jones Estate Group, a law firm based in Philadelphia that serves clients across the US and internationally.
Richard and Paula discuss the importance of working with cross-border attorneys who have expertise in both US and UK law, as well as the need for a network of advisors to navigate the complexities of international estate planning.
If you are, as Paula refers to them, a multinational (you’ve got a business relationship with the US plus a non-US component), you’ll need to know the pitfalls of US federal and state estate taxes, inheritance taxes, and the differences in probate processes across states. Paula explains that probate fees and legal fees vary depending on the jurisdiction, and the process can be delayed if the probate office is backed up. Filled with the answers to the questions you need to know, this episode is a must for any multinational.
