What is a Living Trust
A living trust allows you to name who you wish to receive your property and assets after your death. Living trusts are similar to wills in that they determine what happens to your interests after death. However, living trusts:
- Appoint a trustee to distribute and manage your property after your death
- The trustee will take the place of an executor working with the probate court
- Property in a trust is not required to pass through probate, saving time and money
An estate planning attorney can help you decide between the two types of trusts:
- Revocable living trusts maintain the most control during a lifetime and will allow beneficiaries to avoid probate. This is most common for most of our clients.
- Irrevocable living trusts are established when an individual wishes to permanently give away assets and relinquish control, if there is a good reason to do so, now.
Living trusts are appropriate for people in all stages of life. They can help young adults who are starting families (estate planning among young adults has increased by 63% in the last year), those in their middle years who have older children, who may own a business or real estate, and a variety of other assets, and those in retirement make sure they have the proper precautions in place.
