Why Have a Trust?

Why is having a trust important to you?  The very name indicates strength doesn’t it?  Some of the chief advantages of having a trust are as follows:

1.  To make sure that your worldly possessions are properly allocated when you pass away.
2.  To reduce those nasty gift and estate taxes.
3.  For proper distribution to your heirs in the amounts that YOU see fit.
4.  To make sure that lawsuits cannot deplete the estate.
5.  For naming a trustee that can speak for you after you are gone.

Trusts are many and varied and a qualified attorney will break them down for you.  The cost of setting up a trust is also varied and will depend on such variables as setting up a will, a living will, and a health care proxy for example.  You must protect your assets in the name of the trust.  Anything that is not titled may go to someone you did not intend when you die.

Whom do you “trust” to formulate your trust?  For over three and a half decades that man in Bellevue Washington is Seattle area personal estate attorney Lyle Clark.  Attorney Clark has handled hundreds of wills and trusts from his office located at 40 Lake Bellevue Suite 100.  Get the peace of mind you deserve and make an appointment by calling (425) 452-3092.
