Having trouble finding a KCMO lawyer to help set up an NFA Trust.

Any web sites with the forms and the rules?

Like:
- can there be just one trustee to begin with?
- can two trustees reside in different states?
- what is this about "funding" a trust with a rifle. Can a coin or envelope wit a dollar do?

And so on.........

Trying to be what my dogs think I am.....

I used Quicken Willmaker. It steps you through everything with plenty of information. I thin that Quicken does an adequate job for an NFA trust and I have never had a problem with the ATF.

There can be one trustee to start and can change it when you like. All you need to do is get a new copy notarized.

I cannot see why the state residency would be an issue with a trust.

"Funding" means you are transferring property into the trust. This is done on a declaration page. With rifles since there is no title the only procedure is to list it on the declaration page.

I'm not sure about your State, but there were nuances here in Utah that made it prudent for me to use an attorney.

I've also read a lot that leads me to believe the Willmaker trusts may cause people some problems in the future. I know those who have gone the Willmaker route will feel differently. Whether or not to use an attorney is a personal choice based on your risk tolerence. I understand why people might not want to spend $400-600, especially in this economy.

For my purposes, I believe it was well worth the cost.
