East Tennesseans can choose from a variety of trusts to achieve their planning goals, including avoiding probate, preventing disinheritance if a surviving spouse remarries, or protecting the home, but it’s important to work with a reputable law firm with roots in your community rather than relying on nationwide companies that promote free trust seminars.

If you or a loved one has been told income is too high for TennCare eligibility, a Qualified Income Trust may be the solution. Being over-income does not mean you are ineligible. It means you need the right legal tool.
