The default for a married couple is a living trust, which will save estate taxes because of the fact that you are married. Typically a living trust is revocable during your lifetime. We can protect your assets through various trust forms and change the terms of a trust at any time to reflect your changing needs and goals.
Newton Revocable Living Trust Lawyer
A revocable living trust gives the trustee of the trust maximum flexibility to change the terms of the trust, the beneficiaries and to dispose of or add assets to the trust. The advantages of a living trust are the avoidance of probate court proceedings, the flexibility that comes with the liquidity of your trust assets and the private nature of your trust arrangement.
In contrast to a will, a trust is not part of public records, nor is the information contained within the trust open to members of the public. A trust is effective while you are alive and is an important and beneficial way to manage your assets while at the same time minimizing your tax liability.
