A trust is similar to a will but property is passed by contract rather than through the court system. A trust outlines the distribution of your estate to family members, churches, charities or non-profit organizations. There is generally no need for a trust to go through probate. Your assets and their distribution are therefore private.
The majority of our practice is in the preparation of revocable living trusts. We take great care in preparing the most comprehensive document to protect you and your family from delay in distribution of assets, to minimize estate taxes and to facilitate a smooth succession to the next generation.
