Franklin Square Trust Lawyer

 
A trust is sometimes thought of as a little more sophisticated tool in estate planning but acts in a manner similar to a will, that is as a legal document that explains how a person wants their affairs settled upon death and who should be entrusted to ensure those matters are taken care of. Trusts are often used to expedite the settlement of an estate, avoid probate and the fees and involvement of the courts, minimize tax liability, maximize privacy and protect assets and the status of those who are eligible, or may seek to become eligible, for government benefits such as Medicaid or SSI.
