Laws governing trusts vary from state to state, although the evolution of these laws has led to increasing uniformity. But important distinctions remain, and several states notably stand apart, endeavouring to be more attractive to those seeking to form and administer trusts. Overlaying state laws, some federal laws – particularly those concerning taxes – play a central role in trust design and administration. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eProviding an in-depth survey of trust laws in the United States, this book offers clear explanations of the law and insights into its application. In particular, state-specific chapters examine key aspects of trust laws in the most populous states, as well as key jurisdictions like Delaware, Nevada, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Tennessee and Wyoming.
