Troy B. Hafner

Troy B. Hafner is a Vero Beach estate planning attorney and member of the Trusts, Estates & Tax Group at Gould Cooksey Fennell. He assists individuals and families in developing and implementing sophisticated estate and wealth transfer planning arrangements tailored to their unique circumstances and objectives.

Troy focuses on strategies to minimize gift, estate, income, capital gains, and generation-skipping transfer taxes while maintaining flexibility and adaptability over time. His planning often includes multi-generational trust structures designed to perpetuate various tax-advantages without necessarily sacrificing flexibility and changeability over time.

His practice focuses heavily on guiding clients through the settlement and administration of trusts and probate estates following a client’s death. He helps fiduciaries and beneficiaries navigate this critical phase to ensure proper implementation of the estate plan and to optimize both current and long-term tax outcomes.
