How to reduce or eliminate your capital gain taxes with a CLAT

The process is simple, and the benefits are huge. We'll be by your side from beginning to end.

1

Choose a strategy

Use our knowledge library and planning tools to evaluate the available strategies and choose the one that's right for you. And if you need guidance, we're just a Zoom call away.

2

Execute the documents & transfer assets

Answer a few questions — in 10 or 15 minutes — and we'll draft your fully compliant, lawyer-vetted documents and help you transfer your assets.

3

Pay no taxes

Here's the fun part: You're entitled to a 100% deduction for any money you place in a CLAT, so you could owe as little as $0. Yes, you heard that right!

4

Invest how you want

You can invest out of your trust just as you would have from your personal accounts — in public equities, startups, crypto, real estate, and more.

5

Contribute to a worthy cause

Once your trust is up and running, you'll make small annual donations to the charity of your choice.

6

Get a big check

At the end of your trust's term (between 20 and 30 years, in most cases), whatever is left in the trust will go into your pocket.

Our approach: We win if you win

Different

No up-front cost

Because we've automated the process of forming a tax-advantaged trust, we can set up your account for free, and we only start charging if you decide to move your assets in.

Contingent

Minimal fixed fees

Once you move assets into your trust, we charge a reasonable, fixed fee to cover the costs of administration, like annual filings, accounting, and asset custody.

Aligned

We make money if you do

Our interests are aligned: You'll also pay us a small portion of the value of your trust assets every year, so our earnings go up only if ours do. We're working for you.
