What Is A Trusts?
A trust refers to a fiduciary relationship created to appoint one party to manage another party’s assets and property on behalf of a third party. This relationship is established between the creator of the trust (the grantor) and the trustee, who holds and administers the assets and property within the trust on behalf of the beneficiaries or the individuals or entities designated to receive the property. The trustee is appointed to fulfill the obligations of administering the trust while acting in the best interests of the grantor, the trust, and it’s beneficiaries. After creating a trust, the grantor is able to transfer assets into the trust or order that the trust is funded following their death. They can make one trust that contains all their assets to be distributed or set up different trusts for specific family members. To ensure these family members do not squander their inheritance, the grantor can stipulate restrictions for distributing the assets or outline conditions that must be met for the beneficiaries to receive their inheritance, such as getting married or reaching a certain age.
What Are The Benefits Of Using A Trust?
- Asset protection: A trust can help to protect your assets from creditors and lawsuits.
- Estate planning: A trust can help you plan for how your assets will be distributed after your death.
- Tax planning: A trust can help you minimize taxes on your estate.
- Privacy: A trust can help to keep your assets and financial affairs private.
Two main types of Irrevocable, Revocable, Living and Testamentary, etc. Trusts can be simple and straightforward or complex. Ninety-nine percent (99%) of all trusts in the U.S. are created as Living Trusts, which are “revocable,” and they offer no privacy, tax advantages, asset protection or living benefits.
Living trusts only help someone bypass probate, and that is it. They call it a “living trust,” but give no “living benefits.” Therefore, while bypassing probate is a great thing, it’s not what clients ultimately want. They not only want benefits at death, but they want to benefit now.
Our trusts give our clients exactly what they really want when it comes to ultimate privacy, ultimate tax advantages and ultimate asset protection, not only at death but from day one of the trust creation.
