Get your taxes done using TurboTax

There are so many different types of trusts, and just as many ways in which they can be set up. Also, laws governing trusts differ state to state. So I would suggest that for at least your first year dealing with this yourself, you consult with a tax pro who is knowledgeable in the laws of your state governing trusts. Try to find one with the "heart of a teacher" that will educate you, and not someone who is not willing to share their knowledge with you (which you are paying them for by the way).
