What Are Wills & Trusts?

Wills

A will is a legal document that outlines how your assets will be distributed after your death. It also allows you to designate guardians for minor children, specify your burial or cremation preferences, and name an executor to manage your estate. Without a valid will, your estate will be distributed according to Florida’s intestacy laws, which may not align with your wishes.

Trusts

A trust is a legal arrangement where you transfer assets to a trustee to manage on behalf of your beneficiaries. Trusts can be customized to achieve various goals, such as avoiding probate, reducing estate taxes, or providing for minor children or individuals with special needs. There are many types of trusts, including revocable living trusts, irrevocable trusts, and special needs trusts, each designed to meet specific estate planning objectives.

Benefits of Wills & Trusts

Control Over Asset Distribution

Ensure your property is distributed exactly as you intend.

Avoiding Probate

Trusts allow assets to pass directly to beneficiaries without the delays and costs of probate.

Protecting Loved Ones

Provide for your family, including minor children and dependents, in a structured and secure manner.

Minimizing Estate Taxes

Certain trusts can help reduce the tax burden on your estate.

Planning for Incapacity

Trusts can include provisions for managing your assets if you become unable to do so.

Frequently Asked Questions About Wills & Trusts

It depends on your circumstances. While a will is essential for everyone, a trust can offer additional benefits, such as avoiding probate or providing for minor children. Our attorneys can help determine what’s right for you.
