Interesting but isn’t it possible to incorporate in any state without having contact there? As long as you name an agent? If true, would it be consistent to be able to create a trust in another state and have a local agent for service? <br>

<div dir="ltr"> Question to the hive mind:
<div><br>
</div>
<div>PC has called - tells me about how he worked with a Nevada adviser to establish multiple LLC and Inc (based in Wyoming) around a multitude of trusts. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Now here is what a i know after one call:</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>over the WA estate tax threshold, not over IRS threshold. single, one adult child about to have first grandchild. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>From an estate planning perspective only - will Washington recognize out of state entities where there is no contact with that state? I thought there was a Supreme Court case where the Grantor tried to create an out of state (thought it was Alaska) trust
and the Court said, in essence, you can’t just pick a state and say that law controls without having some contact with that state. But now I can’t find it….likely because i’m trying to search too fast. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Did i dream this case up?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>If this is a legitimate planning strategy that I just don’t know - please send me your referral. It just seems like smoke and mirrors and a way for someone to make a small fortune off this person by creating a handful of entities for him. <br>
