     Erin 
    Duques demystifies trusts and explains how a trust could be suitable
     for you and why. 

    You’ll walk away knowing how to use trusts to do things like… minimize or avoid taxes, protect assets from potential ex-spouses and creditors, keep public benefits for loved ones, provide for a beneficiary who is disabled or has special needs, and how avoid probate court.
