By incorporating the appropriate type of trust into your comprehensive estate plan, you can:

• Avoid paying excessive taxes
• Avoid probate, which can be time consuming and expensive
• See that your assets go where you want them to

The most common form of trust is a living trust. This allows clients to pass assets directly to loved ones without going through the probate process. By putting your assets in a trust, you can continue to use and manage the assets in any way you like. Upon your death, the assets of the trust are distributed according to your instructions. This is similar to how wills are distributed, but without the time and cost of probate and estate administration. An added benefit to using this form of trust is that, it is not necessary to prepare separate tax returns for the trust.

While the living trust meets the needs of many, it is not the only option. Attorney Richard E. Comfort will work closely with you in planning your estate in the manner that works best for you and your loved ones.
