What is a Trust, and how does it work in North Carolina?
A Trust is a legal arrangement where a Grantor (the person who creates the Trust) has a Trustee manage assets on behalf of Beneficiaries.
Trusts can help avoid Probate, protect assets, and manage distributions. An experienced Trust and Will attorney at ER Law in Greensboro can help you prepare the right type of Trust for your needs, beginning with an initial consultation.
