Properly funding or creating a trust can be a time-consuming and overwhelming process. We find that most trusts are improperly funded and people who want a trust created are unsure how best to get the right assets into it. Additionally, complying with your financial institution’s needs can be complex. We make sure that the goals you set out to accomplish with estate planning actually happen when TrustFunding.com starts or finishes the job.
The term “trust fund” is thrown around often, yet most people have misconceptions about its process. Unfortunately, moving assets into a trust fund is not as easy as clicking on a button that says "transfer." Here's where TrustFunding.com comes in. In this one-minute video, the founder of TrustFunding.com, Attorney Michael Rutkowski, explains how we can help you secure your financial future and that of your loved ones.
Different types of trusts serve different purposes for the important people in your life. Be advised that the trust you choose will not work for you unless you complete the essential steps to have it funded, and 90% of Trust & Estate Planning Lawyers don't move your trust strategy past the finish line. Make sure your trust is really a TRUST!

Funding your trust is the process of transferring assets from your personal name into the name of your trust. It can be a very long and tedious process filled with pages and pages of forms. Each asset has its specific way that ties it to your trust, depending on the trust's goals. Banks, insurance companies, investment advisors, and even the US Treasury Department have different rules and forms that need to be completed to fully fund your trust.
At TrustFunding.com, we handle the entire process of re-titling your assets; changing beneficiary designations; preparing, filing, and recording deeds; and we work directly with your financial institutions to ensure everything is completed and done correctly.
Fully funding your trust is the only way to ensure that your assets avoid probate, have protection, and avoid unnecessary State and Federal taxes (if applicable).
