Trusts

A Trust is a document that directs a “trustee” to manage and distribute property for named individuals or “beneficiaries.” There are many reasons to form a trust, including:

  • Control over beneficiaries’ access to trust funds
  • Preventing some creditors from accessing trust funds
  • Avoiding probate
  • Privacy
  • Tax benefits

Each trust is different. Our attorneys can help you determine if a trust is right for you and which kind of trust best suits your situation.

How Much Does It Cost?

The fee for a trust is based on several factors, including your assets and the goals you hope to accomplish by creating the trust. There are often costs to maintain a trust after it is created as well.
