A revocable living trust is a document you can change or revoke. It allows you to control assets during life and dictate how they pass after death. Unlike some other trusts, a revocable trust remains flexible as your circumstances change.
Revocable living trusts can avoid probate for assets placed in the trust. However, assets that remain outside the trust may still require probate. They do not provide tax shelter during life, but can simplify estate settlement after death.
Assets that can be placed include real estate, bank accounts, investments, and business interests. Personal items and retirement accounts may have specific rules; we review these with you.
The trustee can be a trusted individual or a financial institution. You should choose someone reliable and capable of managing affairs as directed by the trust.
