Comprehensive trust planning for complex estates, real property, and multi-generational wealth transfer.
Everything in the Protection Trust, sized for complex estates. Adds the homestead affidavit, LLC/business-interest assignment into the trust, digital-asset provisions, special-needs and sub-trust language, business succession coordination, and one year of the Prestige Protection Plan (Plus) with priority access and unlimited amendments.
What's included
- Everything in the Protection Trust
- Homestead Affidavit — preserves homestead exemption status after conveyance into the trust
- LLC or Business Interest Assignment into the Trust — attorney-prepared conveyance of business interests
- Digital Asset Trust Provisions — authorizes trustee access to and management of cryptocurrency, online accounts, and digital property
- Children's sub-trust or special needs trust provisions
- Business succession integration and trust coordination
- One year of Prestige Protection Plan (Plus) — priority access, unlimited amendments, and annual reviews included
Texas homeowners and business owners with multiple property types, family business interests, blended families, or beneficiaries who need protective sub-trust structures — anyone whose estate has more than one moving part.
Federal-exemption-level estates, multi-state operating businesses, irrevocable trust strategy, GST/dynasty, charitable structures at scale — those are advisory engagements through Continuum Counsel, not productized.
Incapacity instruments (Statutory Durable POA, Medical POA, Directive, HIPAA) are in the Essentials Bundle ($797). Tax-driven estate planning (irrevocable trusts, GST, dynasty), family governance, and multi-jurisdictional matters are advisory engagements through Continuum Counsel.
