Benefits of Trusts

A trust has many benefits. For a single person, a trust avoids probate and avoids the need for a conservatorship in case the person is incapacitated. For married people, a trust can avoid the time, expense and delay of probate, and can reduce the estate taxes in their estate as well. Further, a trust can be administered quickly. A trust can be administered within weeks, whereas probate can take 12-18 months, and in certain cases, longer.

Roulet Law Firm is committed to assisting Minnesota families with trust and living trust administration. We focus on the efficient administration of trusts for our clients. We handle trust tax returns, trust management, and protection of assets. We also assist with regular documentation if the trust is under the court's authority.
