Revocable Trusts
A revocable trust, also known as a living trust, grants you the power to avoid probate proceedings, set up marital tax planning, provide for beneficiaries, and appoint a trustee to manage the finances, all while retaining control of your assets.
Irrevocable Trusts
This type of trust can also help minimize estate taxes and avoid probate proceedings, but it has the additional ability to prevent your assets from being taken by the state to pay for nursing home care. Our experienced attorneys can inform you of which type of trust would be the best choice for you in your unique situation.

Our experienced attorneys will ensure your assets are distributed accurately and efficiently, that guardians are appointed for minor children, and that your estate’s management is executed properly.
