Long Island Trust Lawyers

 50+ Years of Experience in Trust & Estate Matters

It is very fitting that a trust, one of the most important legal documents you will ever require, is given that name. As the grantor of the trust, you must designate certain rules and directions for what you desire to happen to your personal property and assets should any tragic accident, injury, or illness occur to you that results in incapacitation or fatality. You then hand these plans over to either a person or group known as the trustee, and entrust them to carry out your wishes.

Due to trusts’ complexities, you will definitely require the assistance of our Long Island trust attorneys. Rely on Adler Law to accurately handle your future.

Revocable vs Irrevocable Trusts

There are two primary categories of trusts, each with their own level of duration and permanence:

  • Revocable trusts - Can be either changed or halted, so long as the granter who is amending, revising, or revoking them is still alive
  • Irrevocable trusts - Can neither be terminated, or altered, and the settlor can instate them before or after death

There are different complexities with either category of trust, and each comes with both advantages and disadvantages, particularly in terms of controlling taxes.

Often, having a trust can even help you avoid the probate process for your property. However, because these benefits or deficits entirely depend on individual contexts, it is crucial to have one of our highly knowledgeable attorneys to aid you in deciding on the right option.
