Administration of a Trust

California families are opting, now more than ever, to establish a revocable living trust to help determine the disposition of assets upon incapacity or death of the creators of the trust. Revocable trusts can be used to help with: 

  • Possibly minimizing estate taxes 
  • Providing an orderly disposition of finances and property  
  • Avoiding the costs or delays associated with formal probate proceedings 
  • Handling matters during times of incapacity
