Why you need a Trust
Trusts can serve various purposes, including:
Estate Planning:
Trusts can help manage the distribution of assets upon the trustor's death, potentially avoiding probate and providing more control over how assets are distributed among heirs.
Asset Protection
Certain types of trusts can provide protection from creditors or legal claims, shielding the trust's assets from potential liabilities.
Tax Planning
Some trusts are designed to minimize estate and gift taxes by structuring asset transfers in a way that takes advantage of tax exemptions and deductions.
Charitable Giving
Charitable trusts allow individuals to make contributions to charitable organizations while also providing income to beneficiaries during their lifetime.
Special Needs Planning
Trusts can be established to provide financial support for individuals with disabilities without jeopardizing their eligibility for government benefits.
Family Wealth Management
Family trusts can be created to manage and preserve family wealth for future generations, with provisions for distributions based on specific criteria or milestones.
Attorney Drafted Trust Considerations:
Complexity
If your estate plan involves multiple assets, beneficiaries with special needs, or complex family dynamics, working with an attorney might be a wise choice.
Assets
If you have valuable or intricate assets (businesses, real estate, investments), an attorney can help structure the trust to manage and distribute them appropriately.
Legal Advice
If you're uncertain about legal terms, potential issues, or the best way to structure your trust, seeking legal advice from an attorney is highly recommended.
Peace of Mind
An attorney-drafted trust provides a higher level of assurance that your wishes will be carried out as intended and that your estate plan is legally sound.
In conclusion, the decision between attorney-drafted and self-service trusts depends on the complexity of your estate, your comfort with legal documents, your budget, and the level of legal advice you require. For more intricate estates or situations, seeking the assistance of an experienced estate planning attorney is often advisable.

Frequently Asked Questions
