Fashion Designer Takes Uniquely Named Approach to Her Will

Get ready because this is a doozy, or more accurately, a floozy. Minkoff, founder of a global handbag and clothing empire, has a “floozy clause”—a provision in her will stating if she predeceases or divorces her husband, her assets all go into a trust for her children. This is to prevent a second spouse from gaining access to her wealth, reports the article “Fashion Designer Rebecca Minkoff Reveals She Has ‘Floozy Clause’ In Will” from mondaq.

Minkoff says her mother came up with the idea, long before she or her husband had any money. However, Minkoff counted on becoming highly successful. She maintains that she trusts her husband implicitly. She doesn’t trust what someone else might do if she dies. Her goal is to prevent her children from needing to go to court against an unscrupulous person.

While the title of this provision is admittedly unique, it’s very common for individuals to want to have specific directions carried out after their death, from wishes for the administration of their estate or distribution of assets. Some want to restrict who their beneficiaries marry or even dictate the religion of a spouse.

Another somewhat unusual provision is the Special Trustee for Hostile Acts. In one case, it was used by a mother who wanted to bring harmony to her five children’s relationship after she died. She appointed a Special Trustee to limit trust determinations to any child engaging in a hostile act. However, controlling from the grave doesn’t always work. Litigation ensued between the siblings, and the case made its way up to an Appellate Court, which upheld the provision but declined to limit the application despite the request of several of the children. This mother knew her children very well.

A provision attempting to control the religious marriage requirement can be expected to be enforced if it doesn’t impose a total restraint on marriage in general or promote divorce. On the other hand, a provision providing a financial benefit for an illegal act will always be found invalid.

Back to Minkoff’s strategy: it’s got at least one flaw. If funds or assets pass directly to her husband at some point in time and he hasn’t moved on to a “floozy” with someone five years after her death, he can do whatever he wants with those assets. A better solution would be to put the assets in an Irrevocable Trust containing the limitations and restrictions she wants.

Her plan also creates a tax issue. A gift in trust for the surviving spouse passing to the children if the spouse remarries means the trust won’t qualify for the estate tax marital deduction. There is a way around this, however. The trust can be structured so that the surviving spouse receives the net income of the trust during their lifetime.

The plan isn’t a bad one. However, an irrevocable trust might be a better way to achieve the desired end in cases like this.

There is another aspect to consider when planning to control assets after death. Children are happier when their parents are happy. If a second marriage would make a surviving spouse happier, having to live under the constraints of a “floozy clause” could create resentments and tensions within the family.

Talk with your estate planning attorney about creating an estate plan to achieve your goals while you are living and after you have passed. If controlling assets after you have passed is important to you, they’ll be able to come up with a plan. You don’t have to create a new name for it—unless your mother is as clever as Minkoff’s.

Should You Put Your Home in a Trust?

If you own a home, you know your name on the title proves ownership. If you decide you’d like to transfer ownership, the name on the title changes. According to an article from ABC 45 News, “How, and why, to set up a trust for your house,” you can transfer ownership of your home to a real estate trust.

One of many reasons to put your home into a trust is to make it easier for your executor and heirs if your estate plan includes passing the home to your children. Transferring your home to a real estate trust involves certain legal and tax benefits. Here’s a look at why this might be something to discuss with your estate planning attorney.

First, what is a real estate trust? A real estate trust is a trust designed to own real estate property, which is transferred into the trust by retitling the deed. Once this is done, like any other trust, the asset—the real estate property—is managed by the trustee for the benefit of the grantor and beneficiaries.

In some jurisdictions, you may need to have a new deed created—your estate planning attorney will know how it works in your region. The deed is then recorded with the local county recording office.

In most cases, the home’s original owner names themselves as the trustee to maintain control of the property, although someone else can be named as a trustee. An adult child is often named as the trustee if the original owner is ready to take this step.

Trusts have many applications for estate planning as well as tax planning and asset protection. Depending on the type of trust your estate planning attorney determines is best, a trust can be established to protect the home from creditors as well as passing directly to heirs without needing to go through probate court.

If you need a revocable or living trust, the grantor (the person who creates the trust) can make changes or even close the trust at any time. This is appealing to some people because they want to be able to be in charge. When the grantor dies, the property is distributed to beneficiaries according to the directions in the trust.

If you put your home in an irrevocable trust, the asset is protected against lawsuits and creditors. The same protection doesn’t extend to a revocable trust, however. The irrevocable trust may be eligible for a stepped-up basis on the grantor’s death, reducing estate taxes and capital gains taxes when the property is sold, if all required conditions are met.

Trusts are a popular means of circumventing the need to go through probate court, which can cost thousands and take months or years to complete.

Senior homeowners should consult with an estate planning attorney to learn how placing their home in a trust will impact their overall estate plan and Medicaid eligibility. If there is no estate plan currently in place, this is something to address as soon as possible. We don’t know what the future holds, but we do know that having an estate plan provides peace of mind for all concerned.

Why Is a Special Needs Trust Important for Your Child’s Future?

When you have a child with special needs, ensuring their future care and financial security is a top priority. One way to achieve this is by setting up a special needs trust (SNT), which allows you to provide for your child without jeopardizing their eligibility for government benefits, such as Medicaid and Supplemental Security Income (SSI).

What Is a Special Needs Trust?

A special needs trust is a legal document that holds assets for a beneficiary with special needs. The purpose of this trust is to supplement, not replace, the benefits your child receives from government programs. With an SNT in place, you can ensure that your child has access to additional resources to improve their quality of life, while preserving their eligibility for vital services, as Special Needs Alliance reports.

Who Should Be Involved in a Special Needs Trust?

Setting up a special needs trust involves three key parties:

Donor: The person who establishes and funds the trust, typically the parent or guardian.
Trustee: The individual or entity responsible for managing the trust and using the funds appropriately.
Beneficiary: The person with special needs who benefits from the trust.

You may also name a remainder beneficiary, who will receive any leftover assets if your child passes away.

Why Is It Necessary to Set Up a Special Needs Trust?

You might wonder if leaving money directly to your child or a trusted family member is enough. Unfortunately, doing so could disqualify your child from receiving essential benefits. A special needs trust helps you avoid this risk by allowing you to direct your estate to your child without affecting their eligibility for government programs.

The trust can cover a variety of expenses that improve your child’s quality of life, such as:

Personal care attendants
Special therapies or treatments
Adaptive equipment
Education and recreational activities

What Types of Special Needs Trusts are There?

There are three main types of special needs trusts:

Third-Party Special Needs Trust: Parents or other relatives establish a third-party special needs trust to benefit a child with special needs. These trusts do not require Medicaid payback provisions.
First-Party Special Needs Trust: The beneficiary can establish a first-party SNT using funds from an inheritance, legal settlement, or other source. Medicaid may receive the remaining assets upon the beneficiary’s death.
Pooled Trusts: Nonprofits manage pooled trusts that combine assets from multiple sources, such as third and first-party funding. A pooled trust is a good fallback option when the two previous options aren’t available.

How Should You Fund a Special Needs Trust?

A trust needs adequate funding to serve its intended purpose. Most parents fund the SNT upon death through life insurance, retirement accounts, or savings. However, you can contribute to the trust during your lifetime if you have sufficient resources. Knowing that the trust is funded and ready to support your child’s future needs, this strategy can offer peace of mind.

What are the Responsibilities of a Trustee?

The trustee plays a crucial role in managing the special needs trust. Their responsibilities include:

Managing trust assets
Making payments on behalf of your child (but not directly to the child)
Keeping detailed financial records
Ensuring that the trust does not affect your child’s government benefits

Some families choose a trusted family member, while others opt for a professional or corporate trustee. Either path can be successful. However, you must carefully weigh your options. The right trustee must understand the requirements of a special needs trust and prioritize the child’s long-term well-being.

Can a Special Needs Planning Attorney Help?

Creating a special needs trust involves complex decisions that require careful consideration. A special needs planning attorney can guide you through setting up the trust, planning to fund it adequately and helping you select a trustee. They will also ensure that the trust complies with current legal standards, critical for preserving your child’s government benefits.

Who is Legally Able to Amend a Trust?

Procrastination is the most common mistake in estate planning when people don’t create a will and trusts and when documents are not updated. For one family, a revocable trust created when both parents are living presents some complex problems now, when the surviving wife wants to make changes but is suffering from serious health issues.

As described in the article “Estate Planning: Who can amend the trust” from NWI Times, this scenario requires a careful review of the trust document, which should contain instructions about how it can be amended and who has the authority to do so. An estate planning attorney must review the trust to ensure it can be amended.

If the trust allows the surviving settlor to amend the trust, the authority to amend it may only be given to the surviving settlor. The mother may be permitted to amend the trust. However, it can’t be anyone acting on her behalf.

If the language in the trust makes the power to amend personal, a guardian or an attorney-in-fact likely won’t be able to amend the trust. Likewise, if the mother is incapacitated and cannot do this herself, the trust may not be amendable while she is ill or disabled.

However, if the trust allows the surviving settlor to amend the trust and the power is not personal, a legal representative, such as a guardian or an attorney-in-fact, may be able to amend the trust for her, if they have the authority to do so under the terms of the trust.

Anyone contemplating this amendment must be aware of any “self-dealing” issues. The legal representative will be restricted to making changes only for the benefit of the beneficiaries and should be mindful before attempting to amend the trust.

Suppose the authority to amend doesn’t exist or other restrictions make it impossible, depending on the state’s laws. In that case, it may be possible to docket the trust with the court and obtain a court order authorizing the trustee to depart from the terms of the trust or even amend the document.

Accomplishing this is far easier if all involved agree with the changes to be made. Unfortunately, if any interested parties object, it may lead to litigation.

Depending upon the desired change, entering into a family settlement agreement may be possible after the mother dies. If everyone is willing to sign off, an agreement can be written authorizing the trustee to deviate from the terms of the trust. This will also require the guidance of an estate planning attorney to ensure that the agreement follows the state’s laws.

If family members disagree with the change, the trustee can refuse to accept the settlement agreement to protect themselves from potential liability.

What Recourse Is Available if Inheritance Is Stolen?

State inheritance theft laws typically cover four distinct aspects, says Yahoo’s recent article entitled “Someone Stole My Inheritance. What Are My Options?”

The four are:

Who committed the inheritance theft,
When the theft happened,
What was taken, and
How the theft happened.

As far as the “how” goes, note that inheritance theft can take many different forms. One of the most common examples involves elder financial abuse where someone takes advantage of an elderly person’s weakened physical or mental state to steal from them.

If you think someone’s stolen your inheritance, it’s important to review inheritance theft laws in your state. Again, each state has different guidelines regarding:

What constitutes inheritance theft,
Who has the standing to bring a civil claim or file a criminal complaint concerning a stolen inheritance,
The legal grounds for successfully pursuing an inheritance theft claim, and
Penalties and remedies for inheritance theft.

Speaking with an experienced estate planning attorney can help you see if you have standing and grounds to file a claim for inheritance theft. Your attorney may advise you to take certain steps to develop a case, including:

Taking an inventory of the estate’s assets,
Reviewing estate documents, such as wills or trusts, to look for any potential signs of fraud or forgery, and
Verifying the validity of will or trust documents.

With a larger estate, you may need to hire a forensic accountant. They specialize in examining financial documents, which may be helpful if you’re struggling to create a paper trail to support a claim of inheritance theft.

Inheritance theft laws can help to protect your rights to an estate if you think your inheritance was stolen. You can also take actions to preserve your own estate for your heirs by drafting a valid will, creating a trust and choosing trustworthy individuals to act as your executor, trustee and power of attorney.

Beneficiary Battle over Presley Estate Reveals Possible Problems in Estate Planning

This is the situation facing the estate of Lisa Marie Presley, whose estate is being challenged by her mother, Priscilla Presley, as described in a recent article, “Presley beneficiary battle sets example of poor estate planning practices” from Insurance NewsNet. These situations are not uncommon, especially when there’s a lot of money involved. They serve as a teachable moment of things to avoid and things to absolutely insist upon in estate planning.

Lisa Marie’s estate is being challenged because of an amendment to the trust, which surfaced after she died. The amendment cut out two trustees and named Lisa Marie’s children as executors and trustees.

At stake is as much as $35 million from three life insurance policies, with at least $4 million needed to settle Lisa Marie’s debts, including $2.5 million owed to the IRS.

When this type of wealth is involved, it makes sense to have professional trustees hired, rather than appointing family members who may not have the skills needed to navigate family dynamics or manage significant assets.

A request to change a will by codicil or a trust by amendment happens fairly often. However, some estate planning attorneys reject their use and insist clients sign a new will or restate a trust to make sure their interests are protected. In the case of Lisa Marie, the amendment might be the result of someone trying to make changes without benefit of an estate planning attorney to make the change correctly.

The origins of the estate issues here may go back to Elvis’ estate plan. His estate was worth $5 million at the time of this death, $20 million if adjusted for inflation. His father was appointed as the executor and a trustee of the estate. His grandmother, father and Lisa Marie were beneficiaries of the trust. Lisa Marie was just nine when her famous father died, and her inheritance was held until she turned 25.

When his father died, Priscilla was named as one of three trustees. When his grandmother died, Lisa Marie was the only surviving beneficiary. She inherited the entire amount on her 25^th birthday—worth about $100 million largely at the time because of Priscilla’s skilled management.

Terminating such a large trust and handing $100 million to a 25 year old is seen by many estate planning attorneys as a big mistake. Distribution at an older age or over the course of the beneficiary’s lifetime could have been a smarter move. Lisa Marie reportedly blew through $100 million as an adult and was millions of dollars in debt, despite the estate having plenty of cash because of two large life insurance policies.

In 1993, Lisa Marie established a trust naming her mother and former business manager as trustees. The amendment in question seems to have been written in 2016, removing Priscilla and business manager Siegel as trustees, appointing Lisa Marie’s daughter and son as trustees, and naming her son and her fourteen year old twin sons as beneficiaries.

Priscilla’s attorneys say they had no prior knowledge of the change. Certain changes in estate plans require written notification of people with interest in the estate, which did not occur. They are also challenging the amendment’s authenticity, saying it was neither witnessed nor notarized. Priscilla’s name is misspelled and Lisa Marie’s signature is not consistent with other signatures of hers.

The estate is being contested, with a preliminary hearing on the matter scheduled for April 13.

Any changes to an estate plan, particularly those involving changes to the will, trusts or beneficiaries, should be done with the help of an experienced estate planning attorney. When large changes are made, or large assets are involved, a simple codicil or amendment could lead to complicated problems.

Can You Prevent Family Fights over Inheritance?

Inheritance battles can create new conflicts, inflame long-standing resentments and squander assets intended to make heir’s lives better. What can families do to prevent estate battles when a loved one’s intentions aren’t accepted is the question asked by the recent article, “Warning Signs Of Estate Disputes—And Ways to Avoid Them,” from mondaq.com.

Here are the more common scenarios leading to family estate battles:

Siblings who are always fighting over something
Second or third marriages
Disparate treatment of children, whether real or perceived
Mental illness or additional issues
Isolation or estrangement
Economic hardship

There are steps to take to minimize, if not eliminate the likelihood of estate battles. The most important is to have an estate plan in place, including all the necessary documents to clearly indicate your wishes. You may want to include a letter of intent, which is not a legally enforceable document. However, it can support the wishes expressed in estate planning documents.

Update the Estate Plan. Does your estate plan still achieve the desired outcome? This is especially important if the family has experienced big changes to finances or relationships. An estate plan from ten years ago may not reflect current circumstances.

Make Distributions Now. For some families, giving with “warm hands” is a gratifying experience and can remove wealth from the estate to avoid battles as everything’s already been given away. The pleasure of seeing families enjoy the fruits of your labor is not to be underestimated, like a granddaughter who is able to buy a home of her own or an entrepreneurial loved one getting help in a business venture.

Appoint a Non-Family Member as a Trustee. Warring factions within a family are not likely to resolve things on their own, especially when cash is at stake. Appointing a family member as a trustee could cause them to become a lightning rod for all of the family’s tensions. Without the confidence of beneficiaries, accusations of self-dealing or an innocent mistake could lead to litigation. Removing the emotions by having a non-family member serve as a professional trustee can lessen suspicion and decrease the chances of legal disputes.

Communicate, with a facilitator, if necessary. Families with a history of disputes often do better when a professional is involved. Depending on the severity of the dynamics, this could range from annual meetings with an estate planning attorney to explain how the estate plan works and have discussions about the parent’s wishes to monthly meetings with a family counselor.

A No-Contest Clause. For some families, a no-contest clause in the will can head off any issues from the start. If people are especially litigious, however, this may not be enough to stop them from pursuing a case. An experienced estate planning attorney will be able to recommend the use of this provision, based on knowing the family and how much wealth is involved.

Addressing the problem now. The biggest mistake is to sweep the issue under the proverbial rug and “let them fight over it when I’m gone.” A better legacy is to address the problem of the family squabbles and know you’ve done the right thing.

As we head into the holiday season, efforts to bring families together and prepare for the future will allow parents, children and grandchildren to enjoy their time together.

Estate Planning Considerations for Minor Children

Creating an estate plan with minor children in mind has a host of variables quite different than one where all heirs are adults. If the intention is for the minor children to be beneficiaries, or if there is a remote chance a minor child might become an unintended beneficiary, different provisions will be needed. A recent article titled “Children need special attention in estate planning” from The News-Enterprise explains how these situations might be addressed.

Does the person creating the will—aka, the testator—want property to be distributed to a minor child? If so, how is the distribution is to occur, tax consequences and safeguards need to be put into place. Much depends upon the relationship of the testator to the minor child. An older individual may want to leave specific dollar bequests for minor children or great-grandchildren, while people with younger children generally leave their entire estate in fractional shares to their own minor children as primary beneficiaries.

While minor children and grandchildren beneficiaries are excluded from inheritance taxes in certain states, great- grandchildren are not. Your estate planning attorney will be able to provide details on who is subject to inheritance, federal and state estate taxes. This needs to be part of your estate plan.

If minor children are the intended beneficiaries of a fractional share of the estate in its entirety, distributions may be held in a common trust or divided into separate share for each minor child. A common trust is used to hold all property to benefit all of the children, until the youngest child reaches a determined age. When this occurs, the trust is split into separate shares according to the trust directions, when each share is managed for the individual beneficiary.

Instructions to the trustee as to how much of the income and principal each beneficiary is to receive and when, at what age or intervals each beneficiary may exercise full control over the assets and what purposes the trust property is intended for until the beneficiary reaches a certain age are details which need to be clearly explained in the trust.

Trusts for minor children are often specifically to be used for health, education, maintenance, or support needs of the beneficiary, within the discretion of the trustee. This has to be outlined in the trust document.

Even if the intention is not to make minor children beneficiaries, care must be taken to include provisions if they are family members. The will or trust must be clear on how property passed to minor child beneficiaries is to be distributed. This may be done through a requirement to put distributions into a trust or may leave a list of options for the executor.

Testators need to keep in mind the public nature of probate. Whatever is left to a minor child will be a matter of public record, which could make the child vulnerable to scammers or predatory family members. Consider using a revocable living trust as an alternative to safeguard the child and the assets.

Regardless of whether a will or trust is used, there should be a person named to act as the child’s guardian and their conservator or trustee, who manages their finances. The money manager does not have to be a parent or relative but must be a trustworthy person.

Review your specific situation with your estate planning attorney to create a plan to protect your minor children, ensuing their financial and lifestyle stability.

Why are Trusts a Good Idea?

Estate planning attorneys know trusts are the Swiss Army knife of estate planning. Whatever the challenge is to be overcome, there is a trust to solve the problem. This includes everything from protecting assets from creditors to ensuring the right people inherit assets. There’s no hype about trusts, despite the title of this article, “Trusts—What Is The Hype?” from mondaq. Rather, there’s a world of benefits provided by trusts.

A trust protects assets from creditors. If the person who had the trust created, known as the “grantor,” is also the owner of the trust, it is best for the trust to be irrevocable. This means that it is not easily changed by the grantor. The trust also can’t be modified or terminated once it’s been set up.

This is the direct opposite of a revocable or living trust. With a revocable trust, the grantor has complete control of the trust, which comes with some downsides.

Once assets are transferred into an irrevocable trust, the grantor no longer has any ownership of the assets or the trust. Because the grantor is no longer in control of the asset, it’s generally not available to satisfy any claims by creditors.

However, this does not mean the grantor is free of any debts or claims in place before the trust was funded. Depending upon your state, there may be a significant look-back period. If this is the case, and if this is the reason for the trust to be created, it may void the trust and negate the protection otherwise provided by the trust.

Most people use trusts to protect assets for future generations, for a variety of reasons.

The “spendthrift” trust is created to protect heirs who may not be good at managing money or judging the character of the people they associate with. The spendthrift trust will protect against creditors, as well as protecting loved ones from losing assets in a divorce. The spouse may not be able to make a claim for a share of the trust property in a divorce settlement.

There are a few different trusts to be used in creating a spendthrift trust. However, the one thing they have in common is a “spendthrift clause.” This restricts the beneficiary’s ability to assign or transfer their interests in the trust and restricts the rights of creditors to reach the trust assets. However, the spendthrift clause will not avoid creditor claims, unless any interest in the trust assets is relinquished completely.

Greater protection against creditor claims may come from giving trustees more discretion over trust distribution. For instance, a trust may require a trustee to make distributions for a beneficiary’s support. Once those distributions are made, they are vulnerable to creditor claims. The court may also allow a creditor to reach the trust assets to satisfy support-related debts. Giving the trustee full and complete discretion over whether and when to make distributions will allow them to provide increased protection.

A trust requires the balance of having access to assets and preventing access from others. Your estate planning attorney will help determine which is best for your unique situation.

What’s a ‘Pot Trust’?

A pot trust is a type of trust that names the children as beneficiaries and the trustee is given discretion to decide how the trust assets should be spent. This trust lets the grantor create a single pool of assets to be used for the benefit of multiple children. A pot trust can offer more flexibility as to how trust assets are used if you plan to leave your entire estate to your children, says Yahoo Finance’s recent article entitled “How Does a Pot Trust Work?”

If you create a family pot trust for your three children and one of them experiences a medical emergency, the trustee would be able to authorize the use of trust funds or assets to cover those costs.

Flexibility is a key element of family pot trusts. Assets are distributed based on the children’s needs, rather than setting specific distribution rules as to who gets what. You might consider this type of trust over other types of trusts if:

You have two or more children;
At least one of those children is a minor; and
You plan to leave your entire estate to your children when you pass away.

Pot trusts can be created for children when you plan to leave all of your assets to them. Generally, a pot trust ends when the youngest included as a beneficiary reaches a certain age. As long as the trust is in place, the trustee can use his or her discretion to determine the way in which trust assets may be used to provide for the beneficiaries’ well-being. The aim is to satisfy the financial needs of individual children as they arise.

However, pot trusts don’t ensure an equal distribution of assets among multiple children. And a family pot trust can also put an increased burden on the trustee. In effect, the trustee has to take on a parental role for financial decision-making. That’s instead of adhering to predetermined directions from the trust grantor. And children may also not like at having to wait until the youngest child comes of age for the trust to terminate and assets to be distributed.

Setting up a pot trust isn’t that different from setting up any other type of trust. Ask an experienced estate planning attorney to help you.
