Wills aren’t always enough. Learn when a trust makes sense, what it does, and how to take the next step. Lunch included.
About this Event

Think trusts are only for the ultra-wealthy? They're not.

A trust can help you avoid probate, protect your loved ones, and make sure your wishes are followed. Whether you're planning ahead or updating an old plan, understanding how trusts work could be one of the most important steps you take.

Join estate planning attorney Mark Eiland, J.D., LL.M. for a clear, approachable session that explains what trusts do, when they make sense, and how to decide if one belongs in your estate plan.

A light lunch will be served.


What You’ll Learn

· What a trust is and how it’s created and funded

· The difference between revocable and irrevocable trusts

· How trusts help families avoid probate and stay out of court

· The role of the trustee and what responsibilities come with it

· How trusts support children, aging parents, or individuals with disabilities

· When a trust may offer more protection than a will

· Common myths about trusts and how the law really works

You’ll leave with a practical understanding of whether a trust fits your goals and what steps to take next.


Who Should Attend

· Adults interested in protecting assets or simplifying inheritance

· Parents, blended families, caregivers, and retirees

· People with existing estate plans who want to explore using a trust

· Anyone curious about how trusts work in real life
