Trusts
Protecting Assets, Avoiding Probate, and Securing Your Legacy
Trusts are an effective way to protect your assets, provide for loved ones, and avoid the lengthy and costly probate process. At Monument Estate Planning, we offer a variety of trust options, including revocable living trusts and irrevocable trusts, each designed to fit your unique financial and family situation.
A well-crafted trust ensures your assets are managed and distributed according to your wishes while keeping your estate plan private and out of court. Trusts also provide the flexibility to address concerns such as incapacity, minor children, and asset protection from creditors. We take the time to understand your goals and create a trust that works for you both now and in the future.
FAQs
Here are some of the most common questions we get about our estate planning services. However, every situation is unique, and the best way to ensure your specific needs are addressed is to speak directly with our attorney. For personalized legal advice tailored to your circumstances, don’t hesitate to contact us today!
What is the difference between a will and a trust?
A will takes effect after your death and goes through probate, while a trust can manage your assets both during your life and after death, helping to avoid probate and maintain privacy.
Can I change the terms of a trust after it’s created?
With a revocable living trust, you can modify or revoke the trust during your lifetime. Irrevocable trusts, on the other hand, cannot typically be changed once they are established.
What assets can be placed in a trust?
Most types of assets can be placed in a trust, including real estate, bank accounts, investments, and personal property. We’ll help you determine what makes the most sense for your situation.
