YOUR BENEFICIARY WENT TO BOSTON – WHY SHOULD YOU CARE?

JIM ROBERTS

Sponsored by Texas Bank and Trust and American Cancer Society

 

Trusts are creatures of state law, but which state law, and in what situation?  Beneficiaries sometimes get into financial trouble.  Which state’s law governs creditors’ rights?  Sometimes marriages falter.  Which state’s law governs the powers of divorce courts, and what can judges in other states do?  Accountants are trying to comply with tax laws.  What factors affect income tax?  Investment in real estate in other states may affect applicable law. This presentation seeks to expose attendees to some of the concepts at play, so that drafting the trust and administering the trust can be tuned appropriately to the clients’ current situation, as well as current and possible future locations of the beneficiaries, trustees and trust investments. James V. “Jim” Roberts is a Texas attorney, also licensed in Colorado, with 40+ years of experience.  He is Board Certified in Estate Planning and Probate Law by the Texas Board of Legal Specialization and a Fellow in the American College of Trust and Estate Counsel.  Jim practices as part of the Estate Planning/Individual Wealth Management and Tax Law groups of Glast, Phillips & Murray, P.C. in Dallas.
