Biography

Tyson Ehlinger is a trusts and estates attorney in the Austin office. Tyson advises clients on wealth preservation strategies and estate plans specifically tailored to accomplish each client’s unique goals, which often include:

  • Minimizing gift tax, estate tax, generation-skipping transfer tax and income tax exposure;
  • Liability and creditor protection;
  • Privacy;
  • Marital property planning;
  • Life insurance planning;
  • Business structuring and succession planning;
  • Qualified Small Business Stock (QSBS) planning;
  • Partnership tax compliance;
  • Family office structuring;
  • Optimizing charitable desires;
  • Planning for incapacity and death; and
  • Maintaining family harmony.

Tyson helps his clients accomplish such goals through the creation and structuring of wills, powers of attorney, revocable trusts, irrevocable trusts (both grantor trusts and non-grantor trusts), partnerships, LLCs, and S Corps.

Tyson’s experience includes advising clients on complex partnership tax issues that result from having several owners of an operating business or several family members involved in a family investment partnership.

Tyson also assists individuals, families, and trustees with trust administration during life, probate and estate administration after a death has occurred, and the preparation of gift tax returns and estate tax returns.
