How a trust works
An Oregon trust is created when a trustmaker/trustor (you) transfers ownership of property to a trustee. The trustee handles these assets on behalf of a beneficiary.
The legally binding trust document outlines the details of the arrangement. That way you can rest well knowing your assets are in good hands, and will be given to the right people (or institutions) at the right times.
The truth about trusts in Oregon
