Testamentary Charitable Remainder Unit Trust

C. Randolph Coleman
Answered by attorney C. Randolph Coleman (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at The Coleman Law Firm, PLLC
Yes, a named charity who is a beneficiary of the CRT can be the trustee after your death. There are many additional issues that you may want to consider with regard to a charitable remainder trust. I suggest that you consider consulting with an estate planning attorney who is experienced with charitable remainder trusts to determine whether any of those additional issues that might be applicable to your circumstances. For instance, if you have highly appreciated assets, contributing those assets to a CRT during your lifetime can result in the trust having the ability to sell the highly appreciated assets without incurring capital gaines taxes on the gain, which leaves all of the asset value available to increase the amount of income you can receive from the CRT during your lifetime (and your spouse's lifetime if appropraite) compared to just selling the assets outright. In addition, you receive a charitable contribution deduction for the lifetime transfer to the CRT. You can be the trustee of the CRT during your lifetime so that you can manage the investments in the CRT. Then at the passing of you and your spouse, you can provide for a second level of income beneficiaries (up to 20 years), before the assets are turned over to the charities named in the trust. That is just one example of the benefits of a CRT. Good luck with your planning.

What do I have to sign to use power of attorney?

Answered by attorney Robert James Slotkin (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at Robert J. Slotkin
You don't have to do anything. If you want to sign their checks, just bring the POA to their bank. If you want to make trades on their broker accounts, just notify their broker and send him a copy. If your parents are competent, you ought to alert them what you are doing. Keep in mind you are a fiduciary and everything you do has to be for their benefit or you could wind up with legal problems.

In order to settle an estate valued under 150,000 without probate does the real property have to be less than 50,000?

Answered by attorney James Timothy Weiner (Unclaimed Profile)
Estate Planning lawyer at James T. Weiner, P.C.
In Michigan whether or not you need probate does not depend upon the value of the estate..It depends upon the ownership of the property.. if a trust and trustee .. possibility of no probate.. If real property is in your dad's name regardless of value you need to file a probate petition.

Martindale-Hubbell® Client Review Ratings™ display reviews submitted by individuals who have either hired or consulted the lawyers or law firms.

The Client Review Rating score is determined through the aggregation of validated responses. People who submit reviews are either individuals who consulted with the lawyer/law firm or who hired the lawyer/law firm and want to share their experience of that lawyer or law firm with other potential clients. Reviewers can be anyone who consults or hires a lawyer including in-house counsel, corporate executives, small business owners, and private individuals.

Martindale-Hubbell validates that a reviewer is a person with a valid email address. As part of the review process, respondents must affirm that they have had an initial consultation, are currently a client or have been a client of the lawyer or law firm identified, although Martindale-Hubbell cannot confirm the lawyer/client relationship as it is often confidential. The content of the responses is entirely from reviewers.

Prior results do not guarantee a similar outcome and Martindale-Hubbell accepts no responsibility for the content or accuracy of any review. For more information on Martindale-Hubbell Client Review Ratings, please visit our Client Review Page

Martindale-Hubbell® Peer Review Ratings™ are the gold standard in attorney ratings, and have been for more than a century. These ratings indicate attorneys who are widely respected by their peers for their ethical standards and legal expertise in a specific area of practice.

The Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings process is the gold standard due to its objectivity and comprehensiveness. Lawyers solicited for peer reviews include both those selected by the attorney being reviewed and lawyers independently selected by Martindale-Hubbell. All reviewers are verified as attorneys through Martindale-Hubbell’s extensive attorney database. Only attorneys practicing at least three years and receiving a sufficient number of reviews from non-affiliated attorneys are eligible to receive a Rating.

What are the different Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Ratings?*

• AV Preeminent®: The highest peer rating standard. This rating signifies that a large number of the lawyer’s peers rank him or her at the highest level of professional excellence for their legal knowledge, communication skills and ethical standards.

• Distinguished: An excellent rating for a lawyer with some experience. This rating indicates the attorney is widely respected by their peers for high professional achievement and ethical standards.

• Notable: This rating indicates that the lawyer has been recognized by a large number of their peers for strong ethical standards.

Lawyers who have received peer reviews after 2009 will display more detailed information, including practice areas, summary ratings, detailed numeric ratings and written feedback (if available). Details for individual reviews received before 2009 are not displayed.

Attorneys that receive reviews from their peers, but not a sufficient number to establish a Martindale-Hubbell Peer Review Rating, will have those reviews display on our websites.
