  Doug Lloyd has been with Smith & Zuccarini since 2017. Prior to that, Doug was an attorney at Davis Wright Tremaine LLP in Seattle for over a decade. With more than 15 years of experience working with high net worth clients, Doug focuses his practice on two main areas: (i) assisting clients with tax-efficient transfer of wealth as part of their estate plan and (ii) helping clients navigate the probate and trust administration process. As part of his practice, Doug regularly prepares wills, trusts, powers of attorney and other estate planning documents necessary to implement the client’s personal and tax goals. And, when a loved one dies, Doug assists executors with the administration process, including the preparation and filing of federal and state estate tax returns. Doug believes that each individual’s estate plan is unique and should address family-specific concerns while implementing an efficient tax strategy.
