Overview

The workhorse of estate planning.

Trusts are the tools that make an estate plan work — controlling how and when assets pass, avoiding probate, protecting beneficiaries, and reducing tax. But there are many kinds, and a trust that's poorly matched to your goals, or never properly funded, can fail to do any of it.

LexRoute connects you with counsel who select the right structure, draft it carefully, and ensure it's funded so it actually functions. Choosing and building the trust is where the value is.

What it involves

From selection to administration.

Getting a trust right spans the full life of the arrangement, not just the drafting.

01

Revocable living trusts

Flexible, changeable trusts that avoid probate and keep affairs private.

02

Irrevocable trusts

Structures that remove assets from the estate for tax and protection goals.

03

Funding the trust

Retitling assets so the trust holds what it's meant to — the step most often missed.

04

Trustee selection

Choosing individuals or institutions suited to the role.

05

Administration

Ongoing management, accountings, and distributions done correctly.

06

Asset-protection trusts

Trusts designed to shield assets, including for beneficiaries.
