A revocable living trust is a legal arrangement established during a person’s lifetime that allows them to retain control over their assets while specifying how those assets should be managed or distributed after their death. It is revocable, meaning the grantor can modify or cancel it at any time, offering flexibility in estate planning. This trust also helps avoid probate, enabling a faster and smoother transfer of assets to beneficiaries upon the grantor’s passing.
An asset protection trust is a special type of irrevocable trust created to safeguard assets from creditors, lawsuits, or legal judgments, ensuring the grantor's wealth is protected from potential future claims. It allows the grantor to retain certain benefits from the assets while strategically using it as a tool in estate planning to secure financial stability against liabilities.
A special needs trust is a legal arrangement created to provide financial support for individuals with disabilities, ensuring they can access additional resources to improve their quality of life. It is specifically designed to manage assets in a way that does not jeopardize the beneficiary's eligibility for essential government benefits, such as Medicaid or Supplemental Security Income (SSI).
A qualified income trust (QIT), also known as a Miller Trust, is a legal tool designed to help individuals with income exceeding Medicaid eligibility limits still qualify for Medicaid benefits. It allows them to divert excess income into the trust, ensuring it isn’t counted towards their Medicaid eligibility, while the funds are managed and used for approved expenses like medical care or personal needs.
A Qualified Terminable Interest Property (QTIP) trust is a type of trust used in estate planning that allows a surviving spouse to receive income from the trust for their lifetime, while ensuring the remaining assets ultimately go to the grantor's chosen beneficiaries. This trust provides for the surviving spouse while allowing the grantor to control the final distribution of assets and potentially minimize estate taxes.
The Importance of Choosing a Nevada Licensed Attorney for Your Estate Planning
When it comes to planning for your future and protecting your loved ones, the decisions you make today can have lasting impacts. That’s why it’s critical to ensure your estate planning documents—such as wills, trusts, and other essential arrangements—are prepared by a qualified professional who understands the intricacies of Nevada law. At Collins Law, we believe that working with a Nevada licensed attorney is the best way to safeguard your legacy and ensure your wishes are honored. Here’s why:
Knowledge of Nevada Specific Laws
A Nevada licensed attorney brings specialized training and experience to navigate the complexities of state-specific estate laws. Estate planning is far more than filling out generic forms—it requires a deep understanding of legal principles, tax implications, and Nevada’s unique rules for wills, trusts, and probate. By choosing a licensed attorney, you ensure your documents meet all legal requirements and remain fully enforceable, protecting your estate from unnecessary complications.
Personalized Legal Advice
Every family’s needs are different, and estate planning is not a one-size-fits-all process. Unlike online templates or non-attorney services, a licensed attorney can offer tailored advice based on your unique circumstances. Whether you’re managing a blended family, planning for a loved one with special needs, or protecting a business, an attorney can design a customized estate plan that reflects your goals. At Collins Law, we take the time to understand your priorities and craft solutions that provide lasting security.
Protection and Accountability
Attorneys are held to strict ethical standards and professional codes of conduct, ensuring they act in your best interest. As Nevada licensed professionals, we at Collins Law uphold the highest levels of confidentiality and integrity. Plus, our accountability to the Nevada State Bar offers you an added layer of protection—if something goes wrong, you have recourse. This level of trust and oversight simply isn’t available with non-attorney services.
Avoiding Costly Mistakes
Mistakes in estate planning can be devastating, leading to legal disputes, unexpected taxes, or assets being distributed against your wishes. Common errors—like improper witnessing of a will or outdated beneficiary designations—can unravel even the best intentions. A licensed attorney has the knowledge to spot and prevent these pitfalls, ensuring your estate plan is accurate, thorough, and legally sound. While non-attorney options may seem cheaper upfront, the cost of fixing errors—or the inability to fix them—can far outweigh the initial savings.
Peace of Mind
Perhaps the greatest advantage of working with a Nevada licensed attorney is the confidence it provides. Knowing your estate plan has been carefully crafted by a qualified professional gives you and your family peace of mind. You can rest assured that your wishes will be carried out exactly as you intended, sparing your loved ones from stress and uncertainty down the road. At Collins Law, we see our services as an investment in your family’s future—one that pays off in security and clarity.

While non-attorney services or online forms might promise convenience, they often lack the depth and precision needed to protect your legacy.
