Grah Law LLC focuses on estate planning and probate in Wisconsin. Our attorneys bring years of experience helping families create durable plans that transfer assets smoothly and provide ongoing management as needed.
A revocable living trust is created during your lifetime and funded with assets you place into it. It remains under your control unless you appoint a successor trustee.
Assets held in the trust bypass probate, can provide continuity if you become incapacitated, and offer a private alternative to a will for distributing your estate.
A revocable living trust is a trust you can revoke or amend at any time, created to manage assets during life and distribute them after death according to your instructions.
Core elements include the trust agreement, funding the trust with assets, selecting a trustee, and specifying beneficiaries and distributions. The process involves drafting the trust, transferring assets, and ongoing management.
