What Is a Trust, and Why Do You Need One?

A trust is a legal tool that lets you transfer assets to a trustee, who manages and distributes them according to your wishes for the benefit of your chosen beneficiaries. Unlike a will, a trust can be effective during your lifetime or after your death, offering flexibility in how your assets are managed and shared.

At Pujol Law Group, we will help you explore the different types of trusts and assist you in choosing the one that aligns with your needs.

Our Trust Creation Process

We follow a detailed, step-by-step process to establish your trust, making certain that each aspect aligns with your goals.

  • Initial Consultation  

Our process begins with a comprehensive consultation to discuss your financial goals, family dynamics, and specific needs. During this session, we’ll explain the basics of trust creation, answer your questions, and explore options that may be beneficial to your estate plan.

  • Selecting the Right Type of Trust 

There are many types of trusts, each serving a distinct purpose. We’ll help you determine the most suitable trust for your goals, whether it’s a revocable trust for flexible asset management, an irrevocable trust for tax and creditor protection, or a special needs trust for a loved one with unique care requirements.

  • Drafting Your Trust Document 

Our team creates a comprehensive trust document that follows your instructions, detailing asset distribution, terms, and conditions for beneficiaries. We focus on every detail to prevent legal issues and honor your wishes.

  • Funding the Trust 

To make a trust effective, you must properly fund it by transferring assets such as property, investments, and financial accounts into the trust. We offer support and guidance throughout this process to help make your trust fully operational and legally sound.

  • Ongoing Trust Management 

At Pujol Law, we’re here for the long term. If your trust requires adjustments due to life changes or if you need advice on trust management, our team is available to help keep your plan relevant and effective.

Types of Trusts We Offer

At Pujol Law Group, we understand that every client’s needs are unique. That’s why we offer a variety of trust options, each designed to meet specific estate planning needs:

Revocable Living Trusts

A revocable trust offers flexibility, allowing you to manage your assets during your lifetime and adjust them as your circumstances or intentions evolve. It also helps avoid probate, streamlining the distribution of assets to beneficiaries.

Irrevocable Trusts 

Establishing an irrevocable trust can proactively protect your assets from creditors and potential tax burdens. The trust’s permanent structure provides a robust solution for individuals who prioritize long-term financial planning and asset preservation.

Special Needs Trusts 

A special needs trust allows a loved one with disabilities to receive financial support while maintaining their eligibility for important government benefits. Our team will assist you in creating this trust to support your long-term economic financial stability.

Charitable Trusts

If you wish to support a charitable cause, a charitable trust enables you to donate assets to a nonprofit organization and may provide tax advantages. This type of trust is perfect for those who wish to create a lasting impact through philanthropy.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Can I Still Control My Assets if I Create a Trust? 

Yes, you can still control your assets if you create a trust. A revocable trust allows you to retain control over your assets. With an irrevocable trust, however, you transfer control to the trustee, but it offers enhanced protection from creditors.

  • What Happens if I Need to Make Changes to My Trust? 

If you need to make changes to your trust you can do so at any time, for as long as it is a revocable trust at any time. For an irrevocable trust, making changes is more challenging, but we’ll collaborate with you to align your trust agreement with your long-term goals.

  • Do I Still Need a Trust if I Already Have a Will?

Yes, you may still need a trust even if you already have a will. While a will is important, a trust provides additional benefits, such as avoiding probate and offering privacy. A trust can also allow for greater control and efficiency in asset distribution.

  • Can a Trust Help with Tax Savings?

Yes, a trust can help with tax savings. Certain trusts, like irrevocable trusts and charitable trusts, can help reduce estate taxes and provide potential tax deductions, offering financial benefits for long-term planning.
