Couple Sitting with Financial Advisor

Estate Planning

Estate planning is more than just drafting a will. It’s about taking control of your financial future and making thoughtful decisions to protect your loved ones.

Types of Trusts


Trusts are a versatile tool in estate planning, offering various benefits and applications. Here are some common types of trusts:
 

  • Revocable Living Trust: Allows you to manage your assets during your lifetime and specify how they should be distributed after your death. It can be amended or revoked at any time.

  • Irrevocable Trust: Once established, it cannot be altered or revoked. It offers significant tax benefits and asset protection.

  • Charitable Trust: Enables you to support charitable causes while receiving tax benefits and potentially providing income to your beneficiaries.

  • Special Needs Trust: Ensures that a loved one with special needs is provided for without affecting their eligibility for government benefits.
