Revocable and Irrevocable Trusts
Trusts serve as valuable instruments in estate planning, allowing you to bypass the often complicated and time-consuming probate process. Whether you choose a revocable or irrevocable trust depends on your specific needs and circumstances. Trusts can facilitate the smooth transfer of assets to your beneficiaries and also offer a layer of protection against creditors and unnecessary taxation. At Horner Law Office, we have the expertise to guide you in selecting the trust that aligns with your financial objectives and life situation.
Why Choose a Revocable Trust?
A revocable trust is flexible and can be altered or terminated during your lifetime, offering a level of control that many find reassuring. This trust allows for easier management of assets in case of incapacity, it can be helpful for you to avoid guardianship or conservatorship proceedings.
The Strengths of an Irrevocable Trust
An irrevocable trust, once created, generally cannot be altered or dissolved without the consent of the beneficiaries. This type of trust is particularly useful for asset protection and can offer significant tax benefits. Placing your assets in an irrevocable trust can shield them from creditors and can be a strategic move for Medicaid planning or for preserving a family legacy.
