Probate Avoidance: A Logical Goal
A revocable living trust is a method of avoiding the probate process. If assets are owned by a trust, no court proceeding is involved in the transfer of assets on death. Therefore, no newspaper notices or letters to heirs are required, no records become public, and no statutory waiting periods apply.
A Living Trust:
- Avoids costly probate
- Eliminates the requirement of public notices
- Keeps your plan of distribution private
- Allows for optimal tax planning
- Streamlines and expedites the transfer of property to your loved ones
- Allows for optimum tax planning
- Does not affect you ability to manage and control your own property
- Does not require separate management fees
