01Your goals

Start with your goals and questions; you do not need to know the legal solution.

  • Note why you are considering a gun trust and your most important questions.
  • Think about who you hope to protect or plan for over time.
  • Note any upcoming life event or timing concern you want to discuss.

02People and succession

Stewart Law can discuss who may lawfully serve and which roles fit your situation.

  • Think about people you might want involved in future decisions or succession.
  • Note whether any intended person lives outside Florida or may move.
  • Consider family changes, minors, or other circumstances that may affect your plan.

  • Note whether you already have a will, living trust, gun trust, or related estate plan.
  • Note whether you already own or are considering property with special firearm rules.
  • Mention any inheritance, shared ownership, or out-of-state property questions.
