A Living Trust is an extension of your wishes for what should happen to your estate, on a legal document. Most people think that a Will is enough to do this, but a Will can become muddied by the time consuming process of Probate. With a Living Trust, assets transferred into that trust during your lifetime can be disbursed almost immediately after your death, eliminating any doubt from family members.

Living Trust Defined

Living Trusts outline to loved ones how you want your estate to be handled upon your death. Created while you are still living, Living Trusts hold the properties you transfer into that trust for you to manage until your death, at which point the trustee you’ve appointed takes over the management of disbursing your property to your heirs.

Also, Probate can be a very long, time consuming, making it months, even years before your heirs inherit your property.
