Helping You Achieve Your Estate And Business Planning Goals
Nevada is an ideal state for achieving your estate and business planning goals. The Nevada self-settled, spendthrift trust (onshore trust) is one of the best in the U.S. It is a discretionary trust that allows the settlor to serve as a trustee, manage property and direct investments even if he or she does not reside in Nevada. At least one trustee (individual, trust company or bank) must reside in Nevada, and the trustmaker may not make distributions to himself or herself.
Other business entity formations that can benefit from your planning include:
- Limited liability companies (LLCs)
- Family limited partnerships (FLPs)
- Nonprofit organizations, charities and foundations
- S corporations
- C corporations
Each of these types of entities allows for different forms of asset protection – including intrafamily sales – that can ease your financial and legal burdens in life and those of your beneficiaries and heirs after your death. Proper planning can help protect you, your income, your assets, your business partners and your loved ones from creditors, lawsuits and predators. Nevada LLC, LLP and domestic corporation laws are some of the best in the country.
