A revocable living trust is a flexible arrangement you can modify as your life changes. It allows you to control how assets are managed during life and distributed after death. Because you can revoke or change the trust, you retain flexibility while you remain capable of directing its terms.
Funding the trust and transferring title to trust ownership helps avoid probate at death. A properly funded trust remains private, and its terms are not a matter of public record. This streamlines asset distribution for your beneficiaries.
Yes. You can serve as the trustee while you are alive and mentally competent, maintaining control over assets. You can name successor trustees to step in if you are unavailable or unable to act.
Assets that are titled in the name of the trust or designated to flow into the trust should be included. This often includes real estate, bank accounts, investments, and closely held business interests.
If you change your mind, you can revoke or amend the trust as long as you are the grantor. It is possible to reset your plan to reflect new goals, family changes, or asset updates.
A trust can work alongside a will. A pour-over will ensures any assets not funded into the trust during life are transferred to the trust upon death. This combination can provide robust planning flexibility.
The time to create a revocable living trust varies with complexity. A straightforward trust can be drafted and funded in a few weeks, with longer timelines if there are many assets or intricate provisions.
Reviews are recommended every few years or after major life events. Regular updates help keep the plan aligned with laws and changing personal circumstances.
Costs include preparation of documents, funding guidance, and periodic updates. We tailor services to fit your goals and asset profile, ensuring clear value for your family.
