TRUSTS

- BY THE AMERICAN LEGAL REVIEW, THE PREMIER ONLINE RESOURCE FOR LEGAL INFORMATION AND THE EVALUATION OF LEGAL PRODUCTS AND SERVICES

A Trust allows you to legally decide two important issues regarding your wealth: how you want your assets and property managed while you are alive, and how you want your assets and property distributed after your death.

There are three main types of Trusts: a Joint Trust, a Single Trust or an A/B Trust. Typically called a Living Trust, these types of asset management structures can provide for the distribution of property upon your death, just like a Will. But a Living Trust is more effective in many ways: a Will only takes effect upon death, while a Revocable Living Trust provides the same ability to determine asset distribution upon death AND provides a tool for protecting and managing property and assets during your lifetime!

Below are some Trust products and services examined by the American Legal Review:

None of us like to think about our own mortality, which is why so many families are caught unprepared. A living trust is an important estate planning tool that can help save the expense and delay of probate, which can last as long as three years and take up to 10% of your estate's value. It may also help married couples avoid estate taxes.

A living trust can provide you with more privacy than a will because in most states, you don't have to register it with the courts in probate. Another advantage of a living trust is that it allows you to hand over management of your assets to someone else if you become incapacitated.
