You should purchase Richard Keyt's Gold LLC package that includes a custom revocable living trust for the following reasons:

1. Confidentiality: Your Name & Address Will Not Be Shown on the Public Records of the Arizona Corporation Commission.  The LLC Richard will form for you will not disclose your name or address on the public records of the Arizona Corporation Commission.  Arizona Revised Statutes Section 29-3201.B requires that the public Articles of Organization of an Arizona LLC filed with the ACC contain the name and address of the members (aka owners) and the LLC’s principal address.  If we form a Gold LLC for you the member (owner) of the LLC will be your revocable living trust, not you.  This is why your name will not be displayed on the ACC's public records.  For example, if your confidential trust is called the “Camelback Mountain Trust” the ACC’s public record of the LLC will show that the LLC is owned by the Camelback Mountain Trust, not you.  When we form your Gold LLC the address of the trust and the LLC will be our address, not your address.

You will be the trustee and beneficiary of the trust.  If you are married, both you and your spouse can be co-trustees and beneficiaries, so if one of you were to die, the other would continue as the sole trustee and beneficiary without the need for expensive superior court probate.  The trustee administers the trust's assets for the benefit of the beneficiary or beneficiaries.  Because you are the trustee of the trust you have control over the LLC and all other assets that the trust owns.

2. On Your Death, Your Assets Go to the Person or People You Want to Inherit the Assets.  If you die without a will or a trust, the law of your state of residence determines who will inherit your assets.  This is called the law of intestate succession.  Your residence state's plan for who inherits your assets may be different from who you want to inherit your assets.  You need a trust in which you specify who inherits your assets and who inherits the assets if the primary beneficiary were to die before you so your state of residence can't determine who gets your assets.  The trust we create for you will designate primary future beneficiaries and secondary beneficiaries if a primary beneficiary dies before you.

Warning for Arizona Residents

The State of Arizona has a law that determines who inherits the assets of people who die without a will or a trust.  This law may cause your assets to be inherited by the wrong person or people.  To learn who will inherit your assets if you lack a will or trust see my article called Who Gets Your Assets If You Die without a Will or a Trust and take my short online quiz called Who Inherits Your Property.  If the wrong person or people would inherit your assets the solution is for you to hire us to prepare a will or a trust that leaves your assets to the person or people you want to inherit the assets.

Examples of people who need a trust to ensure their assets go to the person or people they want to get the assets:

  • A person who has minor children.
  • A person who has a child who should not have control over inherited assets.
  • A person who does not want his or her children to inherit the assets equally.
  • A person who wants to disinherit a spouse or child.
  • A married person who wants to leave assets to somebody other than the spouse.
  • A person who wants to leave assets to a significant other.
  • A person who wants to leave assets to all siblings or certain siblings if the person dies while a parent is alive.
  • A person who wants to leave assets to a friend.
  • A person who wants to leave assets to a charity.

3.  Multiple Confidential LLCs.  Your trust can own multiple Arizona entities so you get confidentiality and can keep your name and address off the ACC’s public records with respect to all the LLCs owned by your trust. To hire us to prepare the documents needed to assign ownership of an existing LLC to your trust, complete our member change questionnaire.

4.  Your Trust Can Own Any or All of Your Assets.  Your trust can own anything you own, such as your home, your bank account, your investment account, and vehicles.  All of the assets owned by your trust avoid probate on your death and will go to the person or people you name in the trust agreement.

5.  Mental Incapacity or Death.  If you were to become mentally incapacitated or die, your trust names the person or people who will become the successor trustee or co-trustees of your trust and be responsible for managing the assets in your trust.  This is extremely important if the heirs of your trust are minor children because Arizona law does not allow minors to own or manage assets.
