Avoid Expensive Fees and Taxes
May 11, 2024 – Matthew S. Akers & Douglas McCarthy
By creating a living trust, clients may avoid probate. Much like a will, a living trust will describe what happens to your property in the event of your death. While you are alive, you remain in control and have the power to change or alter the trust at any time. Setting up a living trust allows you to avoid the expense and long delays of probate, and may even save you money on taxes.
