A. Our basic Family or Beneficial Trust costs $15,000 to setup and activate. After this, you can purchase one of any of our service packages (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Platinum or Blue Diamond). There is a lot more to a trust than getting the “book.” The trust must be personalized to each person and their individual situation. Then you must properly activate and fund the trust. This is where 90% of trust buyers will go wrong. Improper activation and funding can invalidate the entire trust and render it completely useless. Then, the last part of the process is implementation of the trust. This involves setting up accounting, business changes, etc. This includes Management Agreements, Operating Agreements and many more. There are more than 100 forms that could be needed going forward, and we can help you with all of it.
