Does Arizona Law Allow For Pet Trusts?


    Yes, Arizona allows for the creation of trusts to benefit pets.  A “pet trust” may be created for the benefit of one or more animals that were alive during the settlor’s lifetime.  Animals may be added before the settlor’s death, and the trust may last until the death of the last surviving animal.  While all fifty states now allow for the creation of pet trusts, Arizona law has allowed for pet trusts for quite some time, and the statute can be found at Arizona Revised Statutes § 14-10408.
