Trust funds can be used to transfer assets to a beneficiary and to protect assets from governmental agencies and financial misuse.

There are two main types of trusts — revocable trusts and irrevocable trusts. Revocable trusts may be used in place of a will when there is an unequal distribution of assets among family members. With these trusts, your family can avoid probate. Irrevocable trusts transfer assets and money to a family member for the purpose of Medicare and Medicaid planning. They can also be used for tax planning.

We can also help you set up the following:

• AB trusts / credit shelter trusts
• Special needs trusts
• 253 trusts
• Income only trusts
• Charitable trusts
• Qualified personal residence trusts
