Understanding Situs: The Good, the bad, and the ugly of having a trust established in a state with Domestic Asset Protection Statutes.

Date: Tuesday, October 24, 2017
Time: 4:30pm - 7:00pm
Location: SB University Club
Speaker: Steven Hall, BS, JD, MBA,

There is a current trend in which some states, such as Nevada, have created statues that are very favorable to the grantor of a trust. There is much confusion around how these trusts operate; with many professionals either applying the statutes for improper purposes or overpromising which benefits apply because of a misunderstanding in how laws are applied to a trust based on situs. This session will be a one hour discussion explaining how an estate planning professional should view these trusts and the potential land mines that one might step on when working with these various trust solutions.
