Utah Code § 75B-2-502
in effect75B-2-502. Spendthrift provisions for beneficiaries other than the settlor.
(1) A spendthrift provision for a beneficiary other than the settlor is valid only if the spendthrift provision restrains both voluntary and involuntary transfer of a beneficiary's interest, even if the beneficiary is the trustee or cotrustee of the trust.
(2) A term of a trust providing that the interest of a beneficiary other than the settlor is held subject to a "spendthrift trust," or words of similar import, is sufficient to restrain both voluntary and involuntary transfer of the beneficiary's interest.
(3) A beneficiary may not transfer an interest in a trust in violation of a valid spendthrift provision and, except as otherwise provided in this part, a creditor or assignee of the beneficiary may not reach the interest or a distribution by the trustee before its receipt by the beneficiary.
