    Why should I have a Living Trust?

    June 22, 2018

    Not only does a Living Trust provide for the disposition of your property (like a Will), but it also offers the following benefits:

    1. Provides for the immediate transfer or trust management and distribution in the future of assets after death
    2. Allows for a smooth transition of management upon incapacity or death
    3. Avoids the expense and hassle of probate proceedings
    4. Minimizes estate taxes and defers payment of estate taxes for married couples
    5. Allows for continued control over assets after death or incapacity
    6. Provides security to you and your loved ones
    7. Protects your children’s inheritance from their own potential divorce
    8. Safeguards your estate for your kids if your surviving spouse remarries
    9. Offers flexibility

    In this day and age it is very rewarding and comforting to make a major decision for the long-term security of your family. Over 14 years ago we decided upon the Kinghorn Heritage Family to create our family trust. Through the years it became very evident that this decision was a major and necessary step for a secure future in an ever-changing legal climate. The Kinghorn Family has been a close friend that has always been there to serve our family.

    Estate Planning attorneys are sometimes criticized for offering needlessly complex, 'canned' solutions. This never has been the case with Kevin. The documents he created were comprehensive when appropriate and surprisingly simple when suitable. In every case, they were individually crafted to meet our unique needs.
