[WSBAPT] Putting LLC in revocable living trust?

[Heather Kolbly]

Hi All,

 

I have husband and wife clients for whom I am drafting a revocable living trust.  Husband also is a member of 2 different LLCs with his brothers, who live in other states.  He asked about possibly putting his interest in the LLCs into the trust.  I know this has been talked about before on the listserve, but I don’t recall what was said and I don’t have time to look it up.  Has anyone done this?  Is it advisable to place an LLC member’s ownership interest in the LLC his RLT?  I am thinking it is probably complicated and potentially beyond my scope of experience and skills.  Any guidance you can give on this would be appreciated.  At this point, the clients are just looking for information on the topic.

 

Thanks,

 

Heather Kolbly
