Yes, of course. In fact, most people create Trusts when their children are under the age of 18 (referred to as a minor).The Trustee must be an adult to legally manage Trust assets. But the Trust beneficiaries can be minors because the beneficiaries are not expected to manage the Trust assets.

If your child inherits property or money of substantial value, the court may appoint a guardian or custodian to hold and manage the inheritance for the child until they reach the age of majority.However, in some states the age of majority could be 21 years old, depending on the amount of the inheritance.

When property is left directly to a minor beneficiary, such as through joint ownership of property or a payable-on-death account, the minor won't have the legal authority to take control of it because of their age.Typically, the closest kin will inherit the property.

Children who are under the age of 18 are deemed to lack legal capacity to receive a gift. Where a gift in your will is going to a child under 18 (which may be a child of a deceased beneficiary), you can give your executors and trustees the option to make the gift to the child's parent or guardian.

As of 2019, attorney fees can range from $1,000 to $2,500 to set up a trust, depending upon the complexity of the document and where you live. You can also hire an online service provider to set up your trust. As of 2019, you can expect to pay about $300 for an online trust.

What happens to the death benefit if you name a minor as a beneficiary? If your beneficiary is under the age of majority when you die, the death benefit will be given to a custodian of the funds to hold on to. This guardian can be court-appointed, but the court will most likely choose the surviving parent.

Minors to inherit at age 18 (or younger) In a bare trust situation, the only issue preventing the minor from taking their inheritance at your death is their minority. At 18, the minor would be able to call for their inheritance. In addition, the inheritance would belong to the minor in all senses from your death.

Trusts for minors, or minor's trusts, are very specific types of trusts that are used to hold and distribute property or assets to minors. They typically provide instructions that the money or property assets will be held in trust until the minor reaches the age of majority.
