WHERE THERE IS A WILL (WITH A TRUST), YOU GET YOUR WAY

If you want to be sure your wishes are carried out for your kids and your property after you die, you HAVE to have a will. A good Utah Estate Planning Attorney can write a will that tells the Court who should be in charge of the kids, who should be in charge of money, and who should get what. You can even place the money into a testamentary trust for your kids through your will if you want to make sure they don’t spend it on frivolous things when they are 18 like ski trips and nose piercings. You can write in there that the money should be used for education and service opportunities and their actual needed maintenance until they are old enough to make good choices. (I once had a client make it 30. Another made it 18. 21 is typical.) No matter what you want to have happen, if you do not plan, someone else (like a judge) will decide.
