Trusts Attorney Columbus Ohio

In Ohio, probate can be a costly and time-consuming process filled with paperwork and legal requirements. One of the best ways to avoid probate is by creating a properly funded living trust. This legal tool helps you transfer assets directly to your beneficiaries, bypassing the probate court, saving time and money.

Whether you live in Columbus, Franklin County, or nearby communities like Galloway, Hilliard, Grove City, or West Jefferson, I’m here to help you create a trust tailored to your unique goals.

Tailored Trusts to Fit Your Goals

Maybe you want to control how and when beneficiaries receive funds, for example, releasing money gradually or ensuring it’s used for college tuition. Or perhaps you’re interested in planning for special needs or philanthropic goals.

As a seasoned living trust attorney, I explain all options clearly, from testamentary trusts (set up after death via a will) to living trusts established during your lifetime. I also assist with irrevocable trusts, which can offer tax advantages and asset protection.

How Often Should You Update Your Living Trust?

Life changes, new family members, divorces, inheritances, or business ventures. Your living trust should evolve with these changes. Just like insurance, regularly updating your trust ensures it continues to meet your needs and protect your legacy.

With over 30 years serving Ohio families, I’m ready to help you keep your trust current and effective.
