Revocable Living Trust

FAQ and Process

Benefits of a Revocable Living Trust

A revocable living trust has many benefits and using the right attorney to work with you in creating your trust is very important. Some benefits to a revocable living trust are:

  • Avoiding Probate: A last will and testament does not avoid probate; in fact, probate includes the validation of the Will. A revocable living trust, however, is designed to avoid the cost and delay of probate.

  • Privacy: A revocable living trust can keep your matters confidential. A last will and testament, however, is probated, and the disclosures required during the probate process become part of the public record.

  • Asset Management: If you become incapacitated, you can name a successor trustee to take over management of the trust assets.

  • Avoiding Delays in Distribution: Probate can be a time-consuming process. A trustee of a revocable living trust can distribute to your loved ones much faster than a will goes through probate.
