Is this group of lawyers is trying to take the business of trusts for themselves, are they angry that someone else has gotten into their ballpark. From where they stand, and using the decidedly narrow information that they have, it seems real. The cases that they site may be correct, and those involved may have made mistakes and false claims- and probably did, but you needn't make those same obvious mistakes. We suggest erring on the side of caution and good sense. Many wealthy people don't have trusts.
Monopoly enacted by law is the best businesses to be in.
Imagine the government making laws that people have to buy from you. Sure the IRS doesn't want to tell you that you may use other forms of business that allow tax reduction.
