Why Establish A Trust?
A trust is a legal tool that allows a third party (the trustee) to hold money or property on behalf of a beneficiary. The trustee will manage and distribute assets according to the terms outlined in the trust document.
Establishing a trust allows you to maintain greater control over the distribution of your assets and provide for your loved ones in a way that aligns with your wishes. Some of the more specific advantages of including a trust in your estate plan include:
- You control when and how your beneficiaries receive your assets.
- You can protect your assets from creditors.
- You can minimize taxes for yourself and your loved ones.
- You can avoid probate court which can be costly and time-consuming for your family.
- You can ensure your legacy and values are carried on even after you’re gone.
Trusts offer peace of mind, knowing that your assets are managed according to your instructions and that your loved ones are taken care of.
