The Right Trust for Your Needs
Should you use a Living Trust, Testamentary Trust or a Revocable Trust?
There are a variety of types of Trusts and each one provides different benefits. Trusts can help you:
- Manage estate tax
- Designate heirs
- Care for children with special needs
- Care for minor children
- Give to charity
Assign Assets to Avoid Probate
Without a proper Estate Plan, your assets—that is, your money, your home, anything you own—will be tied up in the Probate court system.
Probate can take up to 2 years to resolve an estate, running up legal bills of more than $12,000, on average. Transferring assets to a Trust allows them to pass without the hassle of Probate. Trusts are a powerful tool to avoid Probate and are available for estates of any size.
