Utah Trust Attorneys

Trusts offer the most flexibility and control over your property during your lifetime and at your demise.

A trust is a contract according to the terms of which a Trustee owns, manages and controls property on behalf of beneficiaries. In many cases the Trustee is the same person as the Trust-maker. There are a myriad of different trusts including, living trust, asset protection trusts, fire arm trusts, and charitable trust to name just a few. Trusts offer extensive flexibility and control over your property and your wishes should you become incapacitated or at your demise. Our experienced and compassionate Utah trust attorneys can discuss with you the different types of trusts and help you create a solid estate plan that meets your familial, financial, short-term, and long-term goals for your legacy.

Revocable vs. Irrevocable Trusts


Trusts can be created with a variety of terms. While a RLT described above is fully amendable and revocable, some trusts are irrevocable-meaning the Trust-maker cannot eliminate the Trust once it is created and property is transferred into the trust. Examples of irrevocable trust include a Utah Asset Protection Trust, Life Insurance Trusts, and charitable trusts. Irrevocable trusts are primarily used in high-net worth estates where extensive planning is necessary to avoid estate taxes.

I want to thank you for assisting me through this difficult times of going through bankruptcy. I was at the hearing today. Mr. Weekes was there for me. I was scared, but he re-assured me. It went on smoothly. There was a time I became emotional, and started to sob quietly, and looked sad. I want to thank you again kindly.

I am extremely happy with [Ascent] Law. First, no one ever wants to be in a position to have to file for bankruptcy, but if you do, you need someone who knows what they are doing, and will keep you informed. I was very nervous that I wouldn’t pick the right lawyer, or we would end up with someone who just wanted to get paid, and left us hanging. Our lawyer at Weekes (Perry Bsharah) has been AMAZING. He is always fast to respond to any of my questions, and is very good at making sure you understand what is happening, and that you are comfortable with the process. He has been there every step of the way, and when we had our meeting of creditors, he made sure we knew exactly what to expect, and he was literally the ONLY lawyer there that had everything ready, and organized for their client. This process has gone smoothly, and I can’t recommend Perry enough. Thank you Perry for making this as easy and painless as possible. It has been worth every penny. Now I can focus on my health, and my family instead of hospital bills, and creditor calls.
