Supreme Court Decision regarding Inherited IRA's

June 17, 2014 by Morris Hall, PLLC Leave a Comment

SUPREME COURT DECISION VOIDS CREDITOR PROTECTION

FOR INHERITED IRA’S

Phoenix – The law firm of Morris Hall, P.L.L.C (MH) in response to the Supreme Court Decision on Inherited IRAs, reminds Arizona residents that creating a qualified IRA Beneficiary Trust or a qualified Revocable Living Trust can protect a beneficiary’s Inherited IRA from creditors.

On June 12th the U.S. Supreme Court  unanimously decided that an inherited IRA does not follow the same guidelines nor bear the same characteristics of typical retirement funds (IRA and Roth IRA).  This ruling means that an Inherited IRA left to a beneficiary cannot be protected from creditors as previously argued in Clark v. Rameker.  Proper protection can still be gained by the creation of a qualified IRA Beneficiary Trust or a qualified Revocable Living Trust.  MH continues to help individuals, families and beneficiaries protect their assets by providing these qualified trusts to protect your legacy and those who inherit it.

MH devotes its practice to estate planning matters and has helped thousands of families and individuals  meet their long-term estate planning and financial goals. The firm is a premier member of the American Academy of Estate Planning Attorneys (AAEPA).
