Estate Planning

Trusts, explained simply

A living trust holds your property during your life and directs where it goes afterward. For some families it offers privacy and a smoother handoff.

The basics

What a trust can do

A trust is a legal arrangement where property is held for the benefit of the people you name. You can serve as your own trustee while you are able, and name someone to step in if you are not.

A trust is not the right fit for everyone, and it is not a replacement for a will. It is one option we can look at together.

Families often consider a trust because it:

  • Keeps many matters out of the public probate process
  • Sets out how assets are managed if you become unable to manage them
  • Can provide for a beneficiary over time rather than all at once
