Living trusts help you avoid probate of your estate. They are not for everyone, but if you own a home, a business, or other substantial goods, it makes sense to have a trust. Why? Probate fees are based on the value of your estate, rather than the flat fee services the ansiblegroup Living Trust Service offers.

Single people as well as married and partnered people provide benefits to their heirs by making a living trust now in eliminating the cost and trouble of probate.

Very Reasonable Fees

• Living Trust $350
• includes Abstract of Trust
• Optional Child Trust $100 for first child, $50 for each additional child

Complete and Comprehensive Package

Trust information and directions will be provided that are tailored to your circumstances. $350.00 will provide you with the complete trust documents, including declaration of trust (the main document), one real estate transfer deed (to put the home in the name of the trust), a pour-over will (which disposes of the assets you do not wish to have in the trust), health care directives, and powers of attorney. An Abstract of Trust, an abbreviated document that you can take to the bank and broker, is included. An Abstract of Trust eliminates disclosure of sensitive personal information to these institutions. Children's trusts prepared at the same time are only $100 additional for the first child and $50 for each additional child. (of same parentage)

No hidden fees or sales gimmicks. These documents will take care of most couples' needs.

The trust will be written to conform to your personal circumstances in language you can understand.

DEDUCT THE FEE FROM YOUR TAXES

Added benefit! Living Trusts prepared by attorneys are not tax deductible, but Living Trusts prepared by other providers ARE tax deductible. Go figure.

To sum up:

• Living Trust $350
• includes Abstract of Trust
• Optional Child Trust $100 for first child, $50 for each additional child.
