ESTATE PLANNING / LIVING TRUSTS


Many wills and estate plans provide inadequate planning and may not provide enough protection for your needs. If you own real estate, have assets worth more than $100,000, or own your own business, you should consider creating a Living Trust. Through a Living Trust you can:

Minimize estate taxes
Avoid the costly and time-consuming probate process
Maintain complete control over your assets during your lifetime
Control how and to whom your estate is disbursed
Allow family members to take over your financial affairs in the event of a serious disability without a costly court proceeding
Protect assets set aside for family members from divorce or creditor disputes
Choose the person who will care for your minor children
Protect and control assets for minor beneficiaries
Prevent doctors from continuing costly unnecessary medical procedures in near-death situations
Protect your estate if you become ill or incapacitated
Prevent businesses from going through a forced sale because of an unforeseen death or disability
Maintain privacy of your family's personal and financial affairs.
