Phoenix, Arizona, Trust Attorney

Revocable Trusts • Irrevocable Trusts • Special Needs Trusts • Living Trusts • Charitable Remainder Trusts

Like a will, a trust allows you to control what parts of your estate will be distributed to which beneficiaries. Unlike a will, a trust affords you a far greater degree of control concerning when and how the distribution process is to take place. For more information, and a free initial consultation to discuss your options for setting up a trust, contact Byrne & Shaw, P.L.L.C. today.

At Byrne & Shaw, P.L.L.C., we provide personalized, individual service to each client to ensure that the trusts we draft as part of their estate plans are adequately tailored to their specific goals and circumstances. Clients work directly with trust attorney James F. Byrne, Jr., who has over 30 years of experience practicing law.

In addition, Mr. Byrne was selected by his peers to receive the prestigious AV-Rating* from Martindale-Hubbell in recognition of his legal skill and reputation for high ethical standards.

Trusts Moderate the Distribution of Your Estate

With a trust, you designate which assets are to be given to whom, and the manner in which they are to be given. For instance, a trust would keep your 14-year-old son from being given a lump sum of $50,000 in the event that you were to die suddenly. Instead, a designated "trustee" would turn over those assets at a time of your choosing, like the son's 21st birthday.

You can also help your beneficiaries avoid probate through the use of a living trust that distributes an estate before death. Trust lawyer James F. Byrne, Jr., will work closely with you to determine which trust arrangement best suits your goals and intentions for your estate.

If you would like to set up a free initial consultation, contact Byrne & Shaw, P.L.L.C. today.
