Trusts and Estates

Estate Planning
Nearly everyone should have a will to assure their property is distributed as they wish after they die. A will may also control the way in which heirs receive their bequests to take advantage of substantial tax savings. Proper estate planning may result in a will that can save thousands of dollars in federal estate taxes. Wills should be prepared and reviewed from time to time by an attorney to take into account changes in law as they occur.
Wills
Trusts
A living trust, also known as a revocable trust, revocable living trust, or inter vivos trust, is an alternative way to own property during your life and transfer property at your death. Living trusts have been prepared by lawyers for clients for many years. You can create a living trust during your lifetime by signing a legal document that directs how property transferred to the trust will be managed, when and to whom the income from the trust property will be paid, and to whom, when and how the trust property will be distributed when you die. A person setting up the trust is called either a settlor, grantor, or trustor of the trust, while the person to whom you transfer your property is called the trustee. The persons who will receive the income during your lifetime or who will receive the trust property after your death, are called the beneficiaries. You may be the settlor, a trustee, and a beneficiary, all at the same time. The property in the trust is called the trust principal, corpus, or res.
Power of Attorney
A will is a written document that directs the distribution of your property at death, states who will care for and distribute that property, and names someone to care for your minor children. Each state has its own requirements for legal wills. An estate plan is a set of documents that includes your will and any additional documents created to plan for your death or disability. Such documents might include a trust, powers of attorney, a living will, and beneficiary designations on life insurance and retirement accounts.
Probate

Foreclosure
Tax Law
